In-n-Out Burger might be one of the most iconic burger joints in America…but we still don’t have any of them anywhere close to Canada, so when I found out there was one just off the Vegas strip, about a 15-minute walk from my hotel, you KNOW I had to check it out, bro!
And here on Triple B, we’re all about go big or go home. So while the Double Double might be the most popular item on the menu, I’m doubling down on that with a 4×4, son!!!!
Now, when I ordered the burger, they told me it comes with 4 slices of cheese, and asked if that was OK. We’re not big on substitutions here on Triple B, so I just went with it. But it turns out that’s a LOT of cheese — even with the burger paper soaking up some of it, there was still all kinds of cheese oozing off this bad boy!
Oh, and I also ordered it Animal Style, cuz that’s the way to do it, apparently. I can’t say I noticed that there was mustard grilled into the meat, but the pickles, grilled onions and extra spread made things super messy — it almost needed an actual diaper instead of just a burger diaper, bro!!!
On the other hand, I’m not so sure that Animal Style goes great on fries. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve eaten some ridiculously overloaded fries in my day…but there was just so much of that signature sauce on here, and it doesn’t taste as good on cheese fries as it does on a burger IMO.
Now my biggest surprise was how small this thing actually was — it easily fit into my mouth without too much smooshing — and it was pretty filling, but not uncomfortably so. The second biggest surprise was the price… Dude, a Quad Quad will only set ya back $7.55 and this whole meal, with Animal Fries and a drink was less than 15 dollars. You’re not getting a deal like that anywhere on the Strip, son!!!!
