Which fast food places are not using a flat top for burgers? Just Burger King?
Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food?

Dude, their burgers are awesome. It’s one of the few, if only fast food joints that still cook burgers on an actual flat top.
I just wish they hadn’t switched to the soggy as fuck steak cut fries.

McDonald’s definitely doesn’t

They most definitely do, they use a clamshell griddle that cooks both sides at once.

How long have they been a fast food store? I thought they were an ice cream shop

1990’s? At least in Canada.

Decades and decades ago. Not remotely new. Your question was outdated 25 years ago.

There is a whole section to each DQ for Regional Menu. Some places will have Steak Fries, or… I can’t remember what else. In the North West (US) we had Ultimates and Deluxe burgers, which were the smaller patties (want to say 1/6lb), american cheese, and thousand island dressing (Ultimates were doubles and had bacon as well).
When I was at DQ School in Minneapolis, i got to meet store managers and owners from all over, and it was really interesting to learn all the regional fare (and apparently South American DQs, at least then, were purely Treat Centers, which is what I imagine OP was assuming they’d all be).

Wow

Yeah, I definitely remember eating DQ burgers in the 90s.
But like I said, it’s definitely possible that if you’ve only seen DQs outside of Texas, your experience might be different.

That is entirely different store to store. The one I managed and our sister store (owned by the same family) used a conveyer belt style flame broiler (automatic broiler). Far more consistent and less labor intensive.
