1/4 lb. Hamburger
Roy Rogers’ plain burger, and the best way to use its signature trick, the Fixin’s Bar. The burger comes as just a quarter-pound beef patty on a buttery Kaiser roll; you add the lettuce, tomato, pickles and condiments yourself from the self-serve bar. That makes it as plain or as loaded as you like, and the soft Kaiser roll is better than a standard fast-food bun.

About Roy Rogers
Roy Rogers began as a legal problem. In 1968 Marriott bought a roast beef chain called RoBee’s, and Arby’s sued because the name sounded too similar. Big Boy founder Bob Wian, who sat on Marriott’s board, knew the agent of cowboy film star Roy Rogers and suggested borrowing his name. Rogers agreed, collected a licence fee and made personal appearances at the restaurants.
