  • Driving along Highway 95, about 40 miles outside of Las Vegas, I came upon a familiar face: Bob's Big Boy. This iconic restaurant is the proud inventor of the first double-decker hamburger. Some say it's even better than the Big Mac.

    I MISS Bob's Big Boy soooooo much!
    I thought the only surviving location was Burbank, California.
    This place was my mom's first job at 17 in Glendale, Ca. then I grew up eating there all over the Los Angeles area locations. That burger tastes DIFFERENT from any other burger on Earth. Not to mention that secret Seasoned Salt they put on the fries and the Hot Fudge cake! So glad it survives elsewhere but my ultimate DREAM would be for somebody to bring the restaurants BACK!

      My dream too. I grew up at BB on birthdays and special days. There was a great one in Fort Worth, Texas, on University by TCU. But, it's gone now. Oh the good ole' days ...

    Wow, I didn't know that the BBB's burger was cloned by McDonald's. I used to go to a Big Boy in Fort Worth up on University. I always asked parents to go to BB on my birthdays.

      Thanks for sharing! I think logos and mascots are an underappreciated art form. We see them every day and rarely do people think about who originally designed them.

    A "little bit different"?! ... c'mon! The sauces between the two burgers are COMPLETELY different.
    Big Boy's sauce is tomato based (thus the RED color), whereas Macca's sauce is almost a Thousand Island dressing...
    Both sauces are polar opposites of each other, but McDonald's found the perfect sauce/burger combo.

      The sauce used at my local big boy is more of a thousand island type sauce

    • @markbrookman8233
      @markbrookman8233 7 месяцев назад

      ​​​​@@DunnRightVideos... yeah, there were/are three kinds of sauce put on the Big Boy, depending on the region you live in:
      The original made by Bob himself was basically Heinz Chilli Relish mixed with Ketchup, but he would also put mayonnaise on the burger.
      Then as the company grew, an "official" sauce was created, basically combining the relish and the Mayo (along with other ingredients like A1 sauce and Worcestershire sauce)... this is the thousand Island sauce you grew up on. (I have the complete recipe for this)
      This was also the sauce that McDonalds ripped off, making a very similar style of sauce for their Big Mac.
      And the third variant was a tartar sauce... white, or cream in color, made by the Frisch Brothers...
