South Dakota Drive-In Named 'Best Cheeseburger' In Entire State

Burgers are my absolute weakness. Every so often, I crave a cheeseburger. It's like a little treat for me. I savor every last bite.

There is always a burger for everyone to sink their teeth into in the Sioux Empire. No one can resist a perfectly cooked burger, a lightly buttered bun, the melty cheese, slathered with ketchup and mustard, and topped with crisp lettuce and tomato, especially from this tiny South Dakota drive-in.

Wow what an amazing burger, good thing we made a wrong turn in town or we would have never stopped here. The burger was nice and juicy with great flavor

What a great meal! We stopped with a tour bus of 45 people. I checked to see if they could accommodate that many. The owners and 2 helpers knocked it out of the park! They made our meals as fast as they could and did it all with smiles and great attitudes.

Oh man. Or hamburgers were excellent, and they are huge! The small fries was plenty to be shared. They were crispy and yummy as well. Finished off the meal with a German chocolate cyclone which the Hubby said was excellent!

Sounds like the Circle E Drive-In in Murdo is the place to be for top-notch South Dakota cheeseburgers!
