Griffs Hamburgers
Per request, you shall now be informed about one of the best drive-ins in the greater Albuquerque area; Griffs.

Located at the corner of Central and Wyoming(in Sweet's hood), Griffs has been serving authentic, old-school drive-in burgers, shakes, fries, rings, and the like since 1960. Oddly enough, Griffs started in or was headquartered in KCMO.

This from the Wiki:
Quote:
Griff’s Hamburgers, or Griff's Burger Bar, is a regional fast food chain founded in 1960 by Griff's of America, Inc. of Kansas City, Missouri, United States. At one time they had locations nationwide with the majority in the South near highway exits.[1]
Griff's was named for the founder, Harold Griffin.[2]
The restaurant buildings were of a patented[3] A-frame design,[1] produced by Valentine Diners[4] of Wichita, Kansas. Later restaurants sported more conventional architecture. A bright yellow sign read HAMBURGERS in big block capitals.[5] The restaurants offered both drive-thrus and patio dining.[5]
Most of the stores were located in high traffic locations, such as near a highway off-ramp, or along Route 66.[5]
Corporate headquarters for Griff's of America is now in Dallas, Texas, and stores remain open in Arvada and Denver, Colorado; Bossier City, Ruston and Shreveport, Louisiana; Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Dallas, Fort Worth, Haltom City, Garland, Irving, Mesquite, and San Antonio, Texas.[1] A location in Sedalia, Missouri closed in late 2011.[2]
The restaurant chain was featured in multiple installments of the Zippy the Pinhead comic strip; on November 15, 2004,[6] February 10, 2005[7] December 19, 2006,[8] and September 2, 2007.[9]
As you can see, Griffs is not too fancy:



But let's have a look at that old-school burgerage:


Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck yeah.

This is what Sonic wishes it could be.

hamburgers cure cancer dude

There was a guy in Colorado that fed his leukemia ridden daughter hamburgers 3 times a day for 8 weeks. At the end of that hamburger binge her cancer was cured.

My mom is from Stover. I'll have to ask her if she's ever heard of it. I never noticed it in the millions of times I've drove from Sedalia to Versailles.

Fast food is pretty much fast food. It's all the same class of food.

Basically.

However, Whataburger, In N Out Burger, Culver's, etc. are of superior quality compared to McDonald's, Burger King, etc.

They suggest searing, starting high and finishing low. The better method is to cook the thing at 225 for as long as it takes it to get to 118 degrees and then pull it. Sear it very briefly after cooking to create the crust, but be careful so as not to create the overcooked outside again.

You'll have a medium rare roast from the middle all the way to the crust.

This method is not perfect because the bark on the outside isn't quite as good as it is on the cookbook methods. Additionally, if you have family members that like it a little more done, tough shit because there won't be any.

But if you're looking for a roast that looks like that one, the only way I've been able to do it is low and slow.
