"In-N-Out Burger Just Took a BIG Step Toward Opening in This New State"

The quick answer is: Colorado.

Quote

The first Colorado restaurant is projected to open in summer of 2020...
...Although there are many In-N-Out Burger locations outside of California, Colorado will be the second state, after California, to house a patty production facility—meaning that the company is looking to establish a solid presence in Colorado and, perhaps in the future, its neighboring states.

This last bit intrigues me. I could have sworn that Texas was going to get a patty production facility, as well, especially since it's so far away from California.

"In-N-Out Burger Debuts in Colorado, Sparks 14 Hour Wait Times"

 

Not much of an article except for the tiny photos of the lines of cars.

The mania for a hamburger with history goes on...xD

Just don't get it. The zoo of line at the local one is beezarre with walkie talkies and traffic directors. And in a city with so much way more excellent street food. People and their odd perceptions!

It's strange. I married a California girl, and for the life of me can't work out the In-N-Out (INO) fanaticism.

 

I get that it's fast, cheap and easy. 

I get that it is definitely NOT bad (in the way that many fast food burgers definitely ARE bad).

It's a nice comfort item that is predictable and reliable.

 

But...it's not amazing. Not the best burger - by a long shot - I've ever had. Or even had this week.

 

Oh well, it's like a California cult or something.

one could open a Dairy Queen above the Arctic Circle and there would be a long line of dog sleds around the local ice berg,

with the intent to see what the place is all about . . .

 

on a west coast jaunt, we did an In and Out. 

decent burger. 

the rest is hyper hype.
