Our fresh never frozen hamburgers which we cook "out door style" have created a fantastic following throughout the Southeast and have won us over 200 awards. But all the awards don't mean much to us if our customers don't leave happy and look forward to their next visit. That's why Cook Out managers and crew think of our customers first. Our policy is that the customer knows what they like on their burgers better than we do. So we let them tell us how to make every order! Our customers are always right no matter what they want on their burgers, chicken sandwiches, or hot dogs.
