Chargrilled burger joints in Austin

[Franco]

The only place that I've found so far that cooks burgers with charcoal is "Top Notch" on Burnet Rd.

Are there any others?

Doesn't the Dog & Duck Pub have chargrilled burgers? I haven't been there in a couple of years, but I know last time I was there my burger was really good.

Begins and ends withe The Notch. Family owned, I've been eating there for over 30 years. It's in the 7500 block of Burnet Rd.

Has anyone besides be ever had a burger at Hoovers?

Is the question "chargrilled" or "charcoal"? Because to me, chargrilled is basically anything cooked on an open flame and Burger King would qualify. Charcoal is different. I didn't know Top Notch used charcoal. If so, that's very cool.

The only restautant I ever recall actually seeing real charcoal being used was Hereford House in Kansas City. How common is it for restaurants to cook with real charcoal?

I'm pretty sure that Dog & Duck doesn't use charcoal, although their burgers are very good.

top notch does use charcoal, if you go there sometimes you can see the cook dumping a bag of Kingsford on the grill

Had a mtg at Z-Tejas today. Ordered the burger after this recommendation. Damned solid choice. 1/2 lb, grilled, jalapeno mayo, really toasted bun. Good stuff.
