Houston's most-loved gravity burger: a 1/3-pound hand-formed beef patty seared on the griddle, lavished with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, raw onion, mustard, and mayo on a toasted sesame bun.
Aubrey and Nona Lankford opened the Lankford Grocery & Market on Dennis Street in 1939 as a Fourth Ward mom-and-pop grocery; the family started cooking lunch for the neighbourhood and the burger became a fixture from the 1970s, with daughter Eydie Lankford Prior taking over operations. Anthony Bourdain featured the Lankford Burger on No Reservations in 2008; the line has not shortened since. Houstonians regularly call it the city's defining burger.
