Squeeze Burger (The Squeeze Inn) • 1947

The crispy fried-cheese skirt draped over every Squeezeburger turns a simple patty into Sacramento legend—a trick first perfected at the tiny original Squeeze Inn in 1980, then brought to Napa's wine country by franchisee Jay Bakker in 2006. Guy Fieri called it one of the nation's best burgers, and that golden, lacy cheese crust crackling off the griddle proves why locals line up even when the wait stretches past half an hour.
