In-N-Out makes three things – burgers, fries and shakes – and their slew of fans believe they do all three exceedingly well. In fact, tourists from states that don’t have an In-N-Out will make a pilgrimage, locals go daily and anyone on a road trip knows they can depend on a perfectly cooked burger, cheeseburger, double-double, 4x4 or a burger made “animal style” to-go. The chain is so convenient, it’s a wonder pioneers rushing to crest the Sierra Nevada or the Rockies before winter didn’t stop at one of the locations. In-N-Out’s not-so-secret secret menu is stuff of legend.
