Biff Burger - What Happened to Biff Burger?

Anyone remember Biff Burger? When I was a kid there were several around - in the pecking order of burger chains in the 1960s/'70s there was McDonald's at the top, Burger King just below, Hardees, then Biff Burger taking up the rear. Like the other chains Biff Burger (stands for "Best in Fast Food") was different from the rest, they had their own tangy sauce that the burger was dipped in after cooking in a special rotating broiler. I hardly ever ate at one but Biff Burger was always less expensive than the other chains which led to the impression (in my mind, anyway) that their burgers weren't as good.

The chain went under in the mid-1970s and the restaurants disappeared almost completely by the mid-1980s but two still survive using the same recipes with the same look to the places. One is in St. Petersburg, Florida the other I just ate in, the renamed Beef Burger (the owner changed the name in the 1980s in case the franchise was revived and he got hit with back fees).

television Blog - Biff BurgerBeef Burger is a 48 year institution in Greensboro, NC, it's like going back in time with the 1970s chairs and tables (yellow and attached as one unit, naturally) and the 1980's arcade games. They still use the classic "Biff" character, one of the worst drawn mascots in history!

And the food - grease-liscious. Best steak sandwich I've had in a while. UNC-G students have long flocked to this place to down cheap eats that really soak up the alcohol - although they have a sign on the door that says, "If you're drunk eat somewhere else."

You can find the history of Biff Burger at this wonderful site. Enjoy!
