Casino El Camino, 517 E 6th St, Austin, TX 78701, USA
The thickest, juiciest burgers of you life can be found right here at this underground-esque dive bar. Casino el Camino boasts a number of burger accoutrements to satisfy every craving, including avocado, cheddar-onion, and so much more - all served up in massive portions. My recommendation: try the Amarillo burger with Verde Chili fries. Yum!
Coyote Bluff Cafe, 2417 S Grand St, Amarillo, TX 79103, USA
Coyote Bluff Cafe is a tiny burger joint that has been featured on Man Vs. Food, so you know they don't play around when it comes to burgers. Recommended: Burger From Hell and cheese fries. Uniquely, tiny though it may be, this funky little restaurant (where drinks are served out of a bathtub and flowers are planted in a commode) has a range of burger options that can be as classic or as high-end as you'd like.
Crow's Burger Shop, 613 Waco Rd, Belton, TX 76513, USA
Crow's Burgers, 2302 S 57th St, Temple, TX 76504, USA

Dubl-R Old Fashioned Hamburgers, 1810 Herring Ave, Waco, TX 76708, USA
Another hole-in-the-wall, DUBL-R does burgers better than any place in Waco, at least according to locals. Juicy, seared to perfection, and served alongside the most dreamy golden fries you've ever seen - now that's a burger! Be sure to check out the endless walls of license plates while you're here.
Serving up no-frills, cooked to order burgers since 1916, Herd's Hamburgers is one of the few burger joints in Texas that still knows how to make a delicious traditional burger that all generations of meat-lovers will love.
