Art's in downtown Phoenix, an old dive building right in the middle of homeless'ville, you wouldn't dare stop there if you didn't know, serves breakfast/lunch only.
The other place is Harbor house, Sunset beach, great burger and salad.
Most of the chain restaurants like applebees and such are just ho hum.
Kent The Chuckbox in Tempe is good, right in the student ghetto. And yes, Art's is a good place in a dicey neighborhood (on Van Buren).

My favorite comes from the Kendalia Store just down the road from my house. Simple with quality ingredients in proper proportions. https://www.yelp.com/biz/kendalia-general-store-kendalia

Individual likes... mine... don't want 15 things on my burger, it's a burger not a club sandwich... to be in the running...
Bun toasted is a plus, no seeds or extra crap on it, patty must be fresh made not frozen, iceberg lettuce not the dark green leaf chit, onions is fine, tomato ok... NO MAYO... mustard and ketchup... cheese is fine. Must be the total package and just taste great.
And no seasoned fries with orange chit all over them... just F'n fries...

How about some good home recipes. My favorite at home is from the trailer trash menu, fry up a big patty, toast regular bread slices, cheese melted, mustard, ketchup and relish... steak fries in the air fryer. Kent

Didn't need to watch. The best burger ever does not contain pickles or ketchup. We use homemade sweet relish. But no ketchup? Them's fighting words! Relish and ketchup? Now we is gonna fight. No sugar on the hamburger!

I like 5B Burger Co. in Mt. Vernon Tx. and West Chevron station in Winnsboro, Texas and Maw's Cafe in Leesburg near Pittsburg Tx. 5b and West Chevron serve fresh cut fries. https://www.facebook.com/5bburger/https://www.facebook.com/mascafeofleesburgtx

Two nights in a row, my wife and I went to a different tavern/brewpub in Des Moines while we were attending the LPGA Solheim Cup. One of them was Wellman's Pub (I think) but can't remember either name for sure. Both nights we got burgers and both were as good as any I've ever had. Different fixins. but I'm betting they used the same meat supplier. Both had good local craft beers available as well. Good trip. The meat makes or breaks a burger IMO.

The best burger to me is one I grill to medium rare and put on a decent bun with ketchup a little mustard and some red onion slices.

Wifeys home made are fabulous. I had one at the club house at Panoramic Gulf club in Willis Texas two weeks ago. It was best store bought burger I’ve had in years.

A great burger is grilled fresh beef with onion and tomato and a smallish bun. Buns should never dominate a great burger.
A couple of favorites burger spots.
Ray’s Tavern in Green River, Utah
Powerstop in Gunnison, Colorado

I just ground some venison and bacon together. Might be my new favorite. What is it that makes folks want to take something as tasty as fresh venison and GRIND BACON WITH IT??? Why the hell not just make a bacon sandwich? You're doing a disservice to bacon* AND venison! * - and I'm not talking about that "Corn King" crap you get a WalMart for $1.89/lb!

Probably one I've made on the grill. For fast food it's the In-N-out in Phoenix. Double-double animal style is excellent.

"Best" always come down to individual preferences. Yours and that guy's over there will not agree. Exactly. There’s no such thing as “best ever”.

The in and out I tried when they put one by the house, put so much 'sauce' or whatever it is on it the patty was swimming, can't stand a burger or sub 'wet'.

For home cooking, Costco sells pre-made patties for about the same price as bulk burger. They come in several sizes and % of fat. A burger with 25% fat will be dripping fat and kicking up the flames. We get the 85 to 90% lean versions... 85-90% lean isn't suitable for a good burger, it'll be too dry and flavorless to be decent. 80/20% ground chuck is the best for burgers. My girlfriend is almost scared of fat in or on beef. When we started dating she wanted 90% lean beef so I went along for a couple of times. Finally after suffering that I put my foot down and told her no more of that crap. Same with the steaks, she won't eat a ribeye, she wants filet with no fat at all. Not coincidentally she also wants everything well done. I told her I'd grill what she wanted the way she wanted, but I'm not eating dry overcooked beef.
