When you think of the best burger in America, your mind probably jumps straight to In-N-Out’s iconic Double-Double, right? West Coasters across Utah, California, and Nevada have long hailed In-N-Out as the reigning burger champ. But guess what? According to USA Today, the crown no longer belongs to In-N-Out! The Double-Double has been beat as America's BEST fast food burger! The new king of Fast Food Burgers belongs to an unlikely chain that we have ALL OVER Utah, California, and Nevada!

USA TODAY'S TOP 10 BEST FAST FOOD BURGERS IN AMERICA:

#10 – The 1921 Slider at White Castle

You know, for something so small, White Castle's slider packs a punch, and it sneaked onto the list. Unfortunately, no locations in Utah, but Nevada has a couple. Also, you can buy them packaged in the frozen food section at Walmart and they're pretty damn good!

#9 – Double Western Bacon Cheeseburger at Carl’s Jr.

Now, this is where I have some beef (pun intended). This burger is hands down my favorite. With that smoky BBQ sauce and crispy onion rings, AND BACON?! how did it land at #9? A travesty!

#8 – Burger King Whopper

The Whopper. A classic! A lot of people hate on Burger King lately, and I'm not sure why! After all these years I STILL love the BK, the Whopper, but I mostly love Burger King Breakfast the most!

#7 – ButterBurger Double Cheeseburger at Culver’s

Culver's is a midwest classic, but it’s starting to find some fans out west. Really good burger, and I know we're talking about meat here, but you can also get cheese curds with your meal instead of fries! I'll take that!

#6 – Double Meat Whataburger at Whataburger

Whataburger fans, don’t @ me. I didn't make this list, but what I can tell you is that I've had Whataburger before, and while it was delicious, it was SO EXPENSIVE! WTF guys?!

#5 – 5 Guys Cheeseburger

I think this one is a little low. I'd put this at maybe #3 on the list, but you know what PISSES ME OFF?! Why does Five Guys refuse to put in a drive thru window! I would eat it so much more often if I didn't have to leave my car and wait inside. I know... I'm lazy!

#4 – Jumbo Jack at Jack in the Box

I actually love a Jack in the Box burger! This feels like an okay placement on the list. Northern Utah just got their very first Jack in the Box and people were lined down the street for BLOCKS! Is it worth that wait... I'm not sure about that one!

#3 – BBQ Rodeo Burger at BurgerFi

Here’s one you probably didn’t see coming. BurgerFi is a bit of a sleeper, but apparently, they’ve got this BBQ thing down. I've never even heard of BurgerFi,

#2 – In-N-Out Double Double

Alright, In-N-Out fans, take a deep breath. The Double-Double is a national treasure (we know), but it came in second place. Cue the collective gasps from Southern California.

#1 – Habit Burger & Grill’s Double Char Burger

Habit Burger, ladies and gents. A chain with over 250 locations in California12 in Utah, and 12 in Nevada, just took the top spot. The Double Char Burger, with its flame-kissed beef and perfect char, apparently slaps harder than anything else on this list. I mean, I knew Habit was good, but best burger in America? According to USA Today, yup!

So there you have it, folks. Whether you’re cheering for your local In-N-Out, or suddenly craving a Double Char from Habit, one thing’s for sure: the fast food burger scene is far from settled. Is anyone else surprised McDonalds got the snub here? Guess I’ll be hitting up Habit Burger this weekend to see if USA Today knows what they’re talking about!
