There's no denying: when you catch the whiff of a burger cooking on a grill, your stomach knows what it wants. But the question is, where can I get a burger closest to me? El Paso loves burgers so thankfully there are plenty of choices in town.

Starting off with some El Paso classics:

The Charcoaler Drive-In is one of the oldest burger places and is a favorite on the west side. It's located at 5837 N Mesa.

Let's not forget these places either:

Orange Cow Burgers was once a food truck business; now they have their own place on the west side: 955 N Resler.

Of course I can't leave out some Texas chains that El Paso loves like Toro Burger and Whataburger. One El Pasoan even consumed a 10 patty Whataburger burger... just because he could.

There's also a "Smash Burgers" on Mesa but... it's closed and no one has any idea on how to contact the owner.
