Calling all burger enthusiasts! Now, not to brag or anything, but we just know how burgers are done in Texas. In fact, we're the proud home of the very first hamburger! You won't find a meatier, juicier, cheesier, more mouthwatering burger anywhere else but the Lone Star State - specifically at the following places. So get ready to take your taste buds on a journey, folks (and possibly your car after you're done reading this article) - here are 17 more of the best hamburgers in Texas.

1. Burger Fresh (Conroe)

Maybe not the most clean-cut picture, but that doesn't matter when we're talkin' burgers. Burger Fresh has a burger dedicated to Texas Monthly for ranking them in the top 50 best burgers in the state. It's a 1/2 lb Angus Beef patty served on their famous Jalapeno Sourdough bun with grilled onions, bell peppers, pepper jack cheese, bacon, and avocado. You can build your own burger piled high with whatever toppings fit your fancy and add a side of fries (regular or sweet potato), tots or onion rings.

2. Jakes Burgers and Beer (Dallas)

I have no words for this beautiful creation...except that you can't forget to try their cheddar fries on the side (and add sour cream, chives and bacon!). Because cheese. The end. Also, there are 22 burgers to choose from, so whether you're in the mood for something fancy like hot dogs, chili and hickory sauce on your burger or a good ol' original, Jake's has you covered. Check out the website for Jakes Burgers to learn more.

5. Roadhouse (Bastrop)

Everything here is so good, it was tough to decide what to feature. I think this close-up of their Jalepeno Cream Cheese burger does the trick, don't you? The Green Chili Cheeseburger comes in a close second. Add on a side of queso fries, and you'll be in comfort food heaven. Visit Roadhouse Bastrop's website to learn more.

6. The Shack Burger Resort (Cypress)

A burger RESORT? This place is ridiculous, guys. Want a no frills, meat and cheese hamburger? They've got it.

7. Twisted Root Burger Co. (Dallas)

Twisted Root is an alternative-type burger joint with some interesting flavor combos. You can get a standard burger, but that definitely isn't what they're known for. Pictured here is The Ranch Hand: Peppercorn ranch dressing, bacon, lettuce & tomato on a sesame seed bun. Another cool thing that sets them apart is all the different meats they offer! From buffalo to camel to kangaroo, they practically have the entire animal kingdom ready to be dished up. Check out Twisted Root Burger Co.'s website to learn more.

8. Lankford's Grocery & Market (Houston)

9. Tookie's (Seabrook)

Ah, Tookie's. Known and loved by all its patrons. Luckily they were able to rebuild after severe damage by Hurricane Ike, and they're back and yummier than ever! Burgers just aren't complete without a generous helping of cheese, in my opinion. Visit the website for Tookie's Burgers to learn more.
