I've been on a 15 year boycott of Braum's ever since they refused to hand me a gallon of milk through the drive through window when I had a screaming toddler in the back seat and was tasked with picking up milk. But I might go try the burger based on a recent recommendation.

June 10, 20223 yr Went to the beach for a spell yesterday evening and were getting home late so we needed to order out. Kids and nephew voted Whataburger so of course here we go again. My son and daughter ordered the kids chicken strips/tenders or whatever. Got home and the tenders boxes were empty, and we had zero ketchup. I guess I should have checked the bags, but that was (supposed to be) a lot of food to go through so I took a chance.

I have never read a bad word about them. Please elaborate. The one by my house has a sign up now hiring $10 an hour. Maybe the small town ones pay more I dunno.
June 10, 20223 yr Braums was better when the burgers were 1/3 pound. Still has the best cherry limeade though. Edited June 10, 20223 yr by Covri

That’s calling the district office level shit. That’s a dumbass or crooked manager.
June 10, 20223 yr If it’s just the tenders missing I can see how it would go unnoticed. Gravy, fries, toast would make it feel heavy enough. Doesn't excuse it, but it’s not like it’s an empty box completely. Now if they were completely empty not sure how that goes unnoticed in the hand off. The only thing Whataburger does to mess up my order from time to time is to forget the creamy pepper sauce for dipping my onion rings in. But the one I go to won the Whataburger games a few years back so maybe they just try harder lol.
June 10, 20223 yr Seems like you should have felt weight discrepancy if they just put empty tender boxes in the bag. Kids and nephew probably ate it all in the backseat on the drive home while you were posting on Surly and driving.

The deal is, for the kids chicken strips meal it's not the giant folding box, it's a bag, with a bag of fries and a fries "box" with the strips in it. The fries "box" the tenders go into was placed into the bag empty, along with the fries and their stupid fruit snacks no one wants because the cookies were fine. Also No gravys. No ketchups.

Kids and nephew probably ate it all in the backseat on the drive home while you were posting on Surly and driving. The fries and fruit snacks were in the bag (kids strips are placed in a fries box inside of the kids meal bag). There were also two burgers and fries in the bag. I was also alone, and I did not eat them. That's a lot to not notice like 4 or however many chicken strips. Maybe should have caught the no gravy and ketchup part, though. Or how about just getting the fucking orders right. DQ seems to do it with their 1.5 employees. EDIT to add: I normally don't complain this much, because honestly I'm not a very picky person, and am rather patient. If they f up my order, I'm fine. But my wife is picky and my kids are picky, and especially last night they were tired and hungry af. You know how it goes: when they're not happy..... My real frustration is that for some reason my wife and daughter continue to want to go to Whataburger every time we bring up picking something up. I've learned. They haven't. At least my son is coming around. Edited June 10, 20223 yr by UncleBuck

They have the best fast food bacon hands down. It actually crunches when you bite into the burger. Edited June 11, 20223 yr by Covri
June 11, 20223 yr I like Braum’s dairy products and other food items but their burgers have a weird taste to me.
June 11, 20223 yr Smashed some Braum’s tonight. Fries were hot and crispy and burger was on point. They were busy as shit and our 5 person order was quick and accurate. It’s officially leap frogged WB for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
June 11, 20223 yr The one quibble I have with those Okie burgers is the ketchup and sauce default. It's Burger King in that area.
June 11, 20223 yr If Braums ever made it as far south as north Houston, it would become my family’s most visited fast food burger/ice cream restaurant without question. Texas (south of Dallas) can’t seem to support Okie FF (Braums, Taco Bueno).

June 28, 20223 yr Semi-pro tip, when traveling between Houston and DFW there's a few TX Burgers right off 45. No need for Whataburger or Bucc-ees.

June 29, 20223 yr drove home from Corpus to Houston, late sunday evening. every whataburger was slammed along the way. finally stopped in rosenberg, slammed at 11 at night
July 3, 20223 yr 3 months after acquired. currently have 4. These Whataburger points are going to soon be more complicated to acquire and use than a visit to fucking Kohls.
July 5, 20223 yr So these commies can't put japs and cheddar in some biscuit dough but they are rolling out a bacon "blue" cheese burger. Fuckers.
July 5, 20223 yr So these commies can't put japs and cheddar in some biscuit dough but they are rolling out a bacon "blue" cheese burger. Fuckers.In the past that would mean you could get blue cheese in on your chicken biscuit, on your patty melt, in your Dr Pepper shake if that’s what you want. No more. Just more Lori Lightfoot dick stirring your drink.
July 5, 20223 yr Bacon and blue cheese makes a really great burger. I would not trust any fast food place to get it right though. Especially not one thats also puts a slice of American on the burger with the blue cheese.
July 5, 20223 yr Oh don't get me wrong. I like a good Bacon/Bleu cheese burger but it's not something I need Whataburger doing. Do what you fuckers did well.
July 7, 20223 yr Just saw they now have a banana pudding shake. As someone a thousand miles or whatever from one, let me know how that is.

July 7, 20223 yr My local whataburger always on the hot/cold streak. Went there last month to get the Southern Bacon Double..... it was damn good. I'd order again. Went a few days ago to try the Bacon Blue Cheese Burger, it was shittastic, and the fries were shitty too. Hardly any blue cheese, bacon was limp, just shit. I blame it mostly on that location though, I know there's stores that do better overall.
