Harden’s Hamburgers – Tulsa, OK
Harden’s Hamburgers is a place that’s been on my radar since I bought my first copy of Hamburger America. And then a couple of folks, from Tulsa, gave it to me as a recommendation over the last couple of years, when I asked about “great burgers” from their hometown. We were heading to the bluegrass […]

Hank’s Hamburgers – Tulsa, OK
While we were working our way toward Kansas, we rolled into Tulsa around lunch time and I consulted the list. One of the spots on there, open for more than 60 years, is Hank’s Hamburgers. The reference I had, and all the pictures inside, proclaim it as Waylon Jennings’ favorite burger joint. There were several […]

Claud’s Hamburgers – Tulsa, OK
On the heels of lunch, just 45 minutes before, we made a quick stop at Claud’s Hamburgers, in Tulsa, as we continued our road trip. Technically – I made a stop, as I was the only one eating at this time. Claud’s has been serving up burgers since 1954 (in this location since 1965) in […]

Linda-Mar Drive In – Tulsa, OK
We weren’t leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight, but we were heading home from Winfield and looking for lunch (in all the wrong places?) when we got to Tulsa. (Note: That’s TWO thinly-veiled 80s country song references in one sentence!) This placed us at Linda-Mar Drive In (actually across the street in the grocery store […]

J & W Grill – Chickasha, OK
Please note: Between last night’s barbecue and this morning’s onion burger, there was a simple breakfast burrito. Don’t worry, faithful followers – we did NOT skip a meal. The other place mentioned by the reception desk at the hotel in Oklahoma City (OKC) was Nic’s Grill – a place I had on my itinerary […]

Meers Store and Restaurant – Meers, OK
Another stop from Hamburger America was calling as we headed east from Amarillo toward Oklahoma City. One of the focal points of this road trip was back roads, and, boy howdy, did we find them on the way to Meers, Oklahoma. We followed the GPS on my phone, through a series of small towns, when […]
