The “Big D” (Dallas) is known for doing things in a BIG way. From shopping malls to sports facilities to endless and expanding suburbs to the biggest State Fair in the country — the city always manages to make an impression on guests and residents alike. And one of the best ways in which it impresses is through it’s variety of food offerings — namely, the diversity of specialty burger joints.

Almost every local knows about Whataburger, Village Burger Bar, Kenny’s Burger Joint, Mooyah, and even In N Out since it’s arrival a few years back. But a few places are taking the burger love to a whole different level.

After an extensive, no doubt sacrificial search, D Magazine has published an excellent review of the best places to satisfy your craving for THE culinary gift that keeps on giving — the hamburger.

You can check out the article by D Magazine’s Burger Editor David Hale Smith in their September issue here: Why Dallas is the Burger Capital of the World

Or, better yet, if you’re in the DFW area, the magazine is available at newsstands and bookstores across the region. Pick one up, use it like a guidebook and joyfully watch your cholesterol numbers climb.
