Finding the Best Burger in Austin!

Two guys, one mission! To find the best Burger in Austin.

Our goal, to go to a new Burger joint every Monday night and rate their burgers on a scale of 1-100.

Our benchmark is Jack's Burger House in Dallas. A long time favorite of ours we have set their burger and arguably the greatest fries in the world as our benchmark.

Our ratings are tough and fair. BurgerMatt rates Jack's a 94 for the burger and a 95 for their fries. FriedEd has rated them a 95 for their burger and their fries a 96. While these grades are based on years of eating there and consistency in the burger and fries our goal is to find the perfect Burger and perfect Fries in Austin. Is this possible? Only our Monday nights will tell.

To interpret our grades we have set them up as follows:

96-100 is akin to a Super Model. Hard to come by unless you have been to a Victoria's Secret fashion show, and utterly perfect. Does a 100 exist, super model or burger?

90-95 is like Scarlett Johansson, beautiful and almost perfect.

80-90 is like a great burger that you would come back for many times however you know there could be something out there a bit better.

70-80 is the cute girl next door.

60-70 is a burger you will eat if your options are slim, and will satisfy you to a certain degree.

50-60 this may be a low end chain burger similar to a McDonalds burger.

40-50 now we are starting to get in the danger zone.

30-40 please have the chef taste this and ask if they would eat this.

20-30 is this really a burger?

10-20 I think my dog just spit on this.

0-10 please but it back in the trash and go have yourself admitted!

As the scale goes, 50 and above and we will start to critique the burger more intensely. If your burger goes below a 50 we reserve the right to call PETA for serving something not resembling a cow!
