Heaven in a Bun

Before moving to SLC in March, I came out for a long weekend in January to see if I even liked the place.  And do you want to know what I was most excited to find (literally had a small freak out session)?  


Not only are they all over the state, there is one like THREE miles from my place.  Is this real life?!
I have my father to blame/thank for this obsession.  Growing up, whenever he took us to visit relatives on the West Coast our first stop was ALWAYS In-N-Out.  And we would go more than once during any given trip.  One of the best things about this burger joint (beside their special spread) is the fact that they serve burgers, cheeseburgers, french fries and shakes.  That’s it. They know what they are good at and they stick to it.  It is, by far, the best burger EVA.  
I always always always get the cheeseburger – animal style.  Animal style is any burger of your choice with hand leafed lettuce, tomato, a mustard cooked beef patty; add pickle, extra spread and grilled onions.  The extra spread and grilled onions make this burger go from good to mouthwatering – literally.  And the FRIES…oh the fries – they are hand cut, thin and crisped up to perfection.  Just perfect.

Note: In-N-Out used to have a “secret menu,” which meant only the regulars knew how to ask for certain things in some sort of “secret language.”  But, now the secret menu is not so secret and you can find it on the In-N-Out website under “Not So Secret Menu.”  This is where you will find terms like animal style, double meat, 3×3, 4×4, grilled cheese and protein style.  Check it out here.
I cannot even think of a word to do this burger enough justice.  If you’ve been, you understand, if you haven’t been, add it to your bucket list.
