Fuddruckers Totally Explained

Fuddruckers is an American fast casual franchised chain restaurant that specializes in hamburgers. It was founded in 1980 in San Antonio, Texas by Philip J. Romano, in a location converted to a restaurant from an old bank. The store's website says Romano chose the name "because the man had a sense of humor." Fuddruckers has over 200 locations around the world, most of which have a 1950s and 1960s Rock and roll theme. The current owner, Michael Cannon, purchased the chain in November 1998, and it's currently based in Austin, Texas.
   Fuddruckers is notable for its large burger patties (up to one pound) and self-service toppings bar. Customers first order a base burger, either plain or with specialty toppings (like sauces, sautéed onions or guacamole). The burger is then provided open-faced to the customer, who then takes it to the toppings bar and adds fresh vegetables and seasonings. Fuddruckers also offers multiple cheese toppings, including nacho cheese.
   Foxwoods Executive Sous Chef Scott Ferguson made one of the world's largest commercially available hamburger—weighing 29.6 pounds and costing $250—for the Fuddruckers restaurant in the casino. Guinness World Records verified the result. The burger is 18.5 inches wide and 8 inches tall. At one time this was the worlds largest burger; however, that record has since been taken by Bobs BBQ in Thailand.
   Fuddruckers has expanded out of the United States and now has branches in Middle Eastern countries such as Egypt, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
   Fuddruckers has one restaurant in Canada, located in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, which remains popular. Other restaurants were tried in other parts of Canada with no success. There are currently four restaurants in Puerto Rico. There were also restaurants in Mexico City, but eventually all closed after a few years. A restaurant was opened in Australia at a suburban Sydney shopping centre Macquarie Centre in the mid-1990s; however, this restaurant has since closed.

Criticism

Fuddruckers has also received a minimal amount of criticism for its name pronunciation and its resemblence to the common four letter word. Many youths often joke that "Fuddruckers" becomes "Ruddfuckers" when the "r" and "f" are switched. This, however, is also part of the name's appeal.
