What separates a good burger from a great burger? Is it the toppings? The meat itself? The sauces and bun? We’re not sure; all we know is that Chubby Ray’s in Kentucky makes great burgers. This Louisville restaurant is known far and wide for its perfect burgers, which are juicy, well-seasoned, and big. Very big. Chubby Ray’s doesn’t mess around when it comes to burgers, which feature a half pound of Angus beef served on a split top bun with lettuce, onion, pickle, and cheese. But it’s the Fat Teddy Burger that really takes things to the next level.
Chubby Ray’s is your classic burger joint, a welcoming restaurant known for great American fare and a welcoming atmosphere.

The eatery is known for its burgers, with the classic cheeseburger one of the most popular menu items.

To be fair, nothing about Chubby Ray’s is ‘regular’ sized. These chicken “sliders” are the biggest we’ve ever seen!
