Johnnie’s Grill crowned state’s burger king by Food Network
Food Network’s Web site is currently featuring a a state-by-state breakdown of its top burgers nationwide, naming Johnnie’s Grill in El Reno No. 1 in Oklahoma.
They don’t describe how the spots were chosen, but I can tell you that they had a number of interns and young would-be food reporters scuttling around by telephone to gather opinion.
A couple years ago, Bon Appetit named the Meers store in Meers as one of the top 3 burgers in the United States, and Food Network ran a 60-minute special.
I guess Bon Appetit didn’t convince them. Anyway, burgers are subjective. You see, I put onion burgers in a completely different class to a hamburger. To me, it’s apples and oranges. I love them equally, choosing between them is based on mood.
Personally, I’ll take a burger from Flatire burgers inEdmond over just about any of them. Where do you get your burger on? Let me know, and I’ll check them out.

I put high-quality, gourmet burgers in a separate category than the greasy, dripping burger that makes you doubt your decision making abilities immediately after. Thus, Flatire and Cattleman’s can’t be weighed against Big Ed’s and the Meers store.
But for my money, the steakburger at Cattleman’s is the best.
I like Miller Grill in Yukon for onion burgers. The current owner used to own Sid’s in Yukon, back when it was good and there wasn’t all the Elvis stuff.
You need to come down to T-Town and go to a couple! First there is Fredies then ya gotta go to Hanks!
Nic’s at 10th and Penn is my choice. Big, juicy and flavorful. I love the El Reno burgers (and their cousin at Little Mike’s on NW Expressway) and I agree Flat Tire is good, but I’d choose Nic’s most any day.
