Best Smashed Burgers in DFW

Posted by seandon2020@reddit | Dallas | View on Reddit | 79 comments

So I just tried this with Boba, thought I should give this topic a chance as well.

It can be any style burger as long as its Smashed Burger.
Currently we are in love with
Skyrocket
Wulf Burger
Herbys
Burger Smchurger

We also tried Edmunds, the new Buffalo Wild Wings, and Shake Shack (although i personally dont consider Shake Shack in that ranking, wifey loves it)

Give me y'all best!

Schmurger is nearby but I haven’t tried them.

Their menu shows they are pretty proud of what amounts to a smashed q/p with cheese

I’m sure I’ll try it though

I thought Burger Schmurger was pretty mid tbh. The patty itself is good quality, but the burger was just alright for being like $12. We left still feeling hungry. I'd also like to sidenote and say I left a 3/5 star review (because it's mid) and they were very very angry about that.

Burger shmurger is great. I was blown away the first time I had his burger at a house party and the restaurant is awesome

[-]

Mnudge@reddit

Their deal so far has been totally based around. Pop up and catering

It will be really interesting to see if they know how to run a restaurant.

[-]

elcorto198777@reddit

Have you been yet? I haven't tried in a while bc the wait was so long (due to demand, not restaurant issues). We went for lunch the first week and got there right when it opened and there was a long line when we left

[-]

Mnudge@reddit

They’ve only been open a coupon of weeks.

They also are closed Monday-Tuesday which, I have to assume is because they are still supporting their catering and pop up business.

We tried twice before we figured out they don’t have regular hours at lunch or dinner.

I’m sure they’ll sort it out and get the staff they need.

If you check their site it’s all about catering, so they seem to be playing catchup with their marketing and their takeover of Bar Nones space.

They’re open on Monday’s I just went there this week

[-]

Mnudge@reddit

Great! How was the burger?

[-]

this_aint_no_hobby@reddit

Been a couple times now, the Maverick is excellent. Fries are cooked in beef tallow and their fried mozzarella is great too. Definitely will continue to go once the initial opening hype dies down

What more do you need?

Picone in Denton

Rodeo Bar in the Adolphus. You're very welcome.

Sauce’d in Grapevine!

Unlucky_Car3468@reddit

STOP STOP 🛑 lets not mention sauce’d please my heart can’t take how busy Theyve gotten 😭

[-]

MrMojoRisin9@reddit

Best place by far

Gusto's in Fort Worth, Skyrocket in Plano

[-]

internet_dipshit@reddit

I’ll be the douche. The coit Skyrocket is still in Dallas.

[-]

Jameszhang73@reddit

There is a location in West Plano too

[-]

internet_dipshit@reddit

Well news to me. One in frisco too. I thought they still only had two locations. I stand down.

[-]

apbod@reddit

Douche card revoked.

Narrator: And with that, the fella rode off into the sunset, to gentle goodbyes and waves by the local townsfolk.

[-]

SadatayAllDamnDay@reddit

The Plano location is run by different people and not as good.

[-]

TexasLiz1@reddit

Not as good as the Coit and Frankfort one.

[-]

Emergency_Basket_851@reddit

Well, I did mean the coit one

[-]

iceroulette@reddit

The OG Burger at Dayne’s. They’re all the way out in Aledo now (used to be at Lola’s when it existed)

[-]

ViolinistSimilar4760@reddit

This! The OG is top tier all time anywhere. It’s number 1B to Au Cheval in Chicago, IMO.

[-]

benbreve@reddit

Gustos in Fort Worth

[-]

BactrimBaddie@reddit

I’ll admit I am not a burger connoisseur and I had a few beers before eating it, but I thought the smash burger at Truckyard in Lowest Greenville was heavenly

[-]

here4pain@reddit

Maple and motor needs to be on this list. Those buns!

[-]

SpaceYetu531@reddit

Is there any meaningful difference in a smashed burger from place to place? The quality of the meat becomes irrelevant when you crush it. So are we talking about toppings or vibe?

[-]

MuscleFlex_Bear@reddit

You already had Skyrocket. You’ve peaked

[-]

jj7687@reddit

I’m a sky rocket truther, but Hudson house pretty good too

[-]

FireBeeChin@reddit

hudson is NOT a smash burger

[-]

AggressiveCup5884@reddit

Neither is skyrocket lol

[-]

elopingbuffalonian@reddit

Looks like you got all the best already. I'd like to be a bit contrarian though, try Wingfields if you haven't. It's a thick one. Get it with Bacon and their Fries are phenomenal.

[-]

P4NCH0_Vi114@reddit

All great places have been mentioned but to add to the list is Picone in Denton. Place absolutely crushes everything on their rotating menu. Run, don't walk.

[-]

ktfuntweets@reddit

Burger Schmurger and Herby’s

[-]

bosquenorte@reddit

Pacheco Burger in Four Corners Brewing has been 10/10 on everything I’ve tried.

[-]

FaBiOtHeGrEaTeSt@reddit

Oh man those burgers after a good bike ride with critical mass always hits the spot!

[-]

ckjohn@reddit

Pacheco is phenomenal. Also love Skyrocket

[-]

technic_aguilar@reddit

they are my go-to for the surrounding downtown area

[-]

StrunkJ@reddit

I think because specifically asking for smash this is the pick for sure. It's been a while since I had Sky Rocket and I love it as much as the next person but I never thought of it as a smash burger.

[-]

CansBottlesandKegs@reddit

They’ve been voted no 1 by some organization. They are good.

[-]

Effective_Friend3282@reddit

Flaming burger off Garland rd

[-]

Effective_Friend3282@reddit

Burger schmurger was okay at best. I think the design of the place helps overhype the burger. Now I will say that those mozzarella sticks were amazing

[-]

NowDriving@reddit

Sauce’d in Grapevine and it’s not close

[-]

Blues BBQ has a fantastic smashburger

Keller’s

Not really smash burger but Del’s Charcoal Burgers in Richardson is top 3 in town.

[-]

CallMeErnie@reddit

The OG Skyrocket Burger on Frankford and Coit is the best burger (smash or otherwise) in DFW

My vote is for Herbys.

[-]

Herby's is the goat. Skyrocket is very good.

[-]

Mad Chopped, they’re behind Inwood Tavern every Thursday - Saturday 10PM until they sell out.

Tasty smash burger, great sauce

[-]

theo4life1@reddit

If you’ve tried Sky Rocket then you’ve had the best already in my opinion but I wish you luck because I’m sure there are other really good ones out there! Some people like burger schmurger better but I don’t think I’ve ever met someone that had both sky rocket and burger schmurger and said they had a better smash burger than those.

Herbys best
