No commentary, no stupid gags, no jump cuts, just a purely informative and fun documentary.

What always kills me about old documentaries from the 80s 90s 2000s, is the atmosphere. So relaxed and pleasant.

Thanks for the upload btw.

This is exactly how lots of German documentaries of the 70s through the 90s were made. No narrator, just interviews, chill footage, non-intrusive music that fits the vibe. So good!

I found this 5 minutes after finishing watching the 360p version 😣. Quality work!

Thank you for giving us the 1080P, not a blurry thumbnail-size 360p version.

I've been looking for this for a good while as a fan of Motz's. Glad to see it up for free!

Totally expected to fast-forward through unnecessary non-burger-related fluff...watched every minute and want to watch it again. Love the pacing, the story-telling, and the obvious love for American burger history.

Was stationed at Ft Sill late 80’s early 90’s. Been to Meers hundreds of times. Took my parents there when they came to visit. After, they’d always wanna go when they’d come to visit. My dad loved their steaks. Their burgers are awesome!!

No idea why this randomly popped up on my algorithm but I am so glad it did 😄

Such a shame about The Wheel Inn. Remember stopping there growing up with my grandparents MANY times on the way back to KC with em. Now there's a damn CVS or Walgreens where it once stood. Still makes me sad everytime I drive by where it once stood.

I was commenting only the other week on another upload of this that there needs to be a upscaled version, thank you very much for this.
