Food places you'd like to see go out of business

That show Diners, Dives and Drive-Ins has lots of small hole in the wall places that people swear by. I’ve picked up some good recipes from that show.

I thought they stopped making that. And the Meat Mountain I think is what the secret item is called.

Oh yeah, big fan of that show. They have a cool database/map online that you can see where all Guy has been. We use it when we travel to find good food.

You ever find yourself up near Northeast Nebraska check out Bob's Bar and Grill in Martinsburg, population of 81. No joke.

Doesn't look too different than the gas station in Johntown.

While I too think that is a little over exaggeration, hands down the best burger I have ever had was from a tiny hole in the wall gas station in east Texas. I don't think the town is even there anymore and the gas station for sure burned down decades ago and never rebuilt. They cooked these things on a flat top that had to be 100 years old and never cleaned. We would go visit my great grandmother and every so often go a few towns over to have those burgers. I've searched ever since and had some amazing burgers, but none of them as greasy and delicious as that one.

That place looks amazing! A Budweiser sign on the door and a "cash - no cards" sign too. The government must hate places like that. I'm going!

And most of the employees are local kids who bust their ass off. Made me proud last time I was there.

This was just a gas station in a town of like 80 people. Not sure it had a name, but I'll check out Juicy's next time I'm in Tyler.

McDonalds...didn't even like them when I was a kid and was supposed to like them. The only thing I ever used to get there is the McRib...and now that I figured out how to make my own McRib, with real ribs, I dont even get that anymore.

I dont eat there,but they cant close,I love their coffee.....
Its better than any damn gas station,ff restraunt and Starbucks.....
 
If we had the same reaction to heart disease and diabetes as we did to covid, 90% of "food" places would have been shut down.
 
Ryan's Steakhouse is the only place I've ever got sick from.

A friend of mine says the same thing. She used to go to Starbucks everyday, but now goes to McDonalds instead. Says its just as good, but costs less. Never orders any food either.

That dude is such a goober, but I gotta say, he is awesome af. Those restaurants literally explode once he shows up. That dude does a lot for people. I hate to look at his dumb head, but I gotta give him props...the show is awesome...the places he goes to are awesome, and I think he's just a good dude.
 
Met a client at Ruby Tuesday's yesterday for our annual meeting there. That place is fucking disgusting. Why anyone would voluntarily choose to go eat there disturbs me. Of all the options to choose from, you choose that fucking shit hole.
