It's USC week, which calls for a bit of west coast fare. With a nod to the burger joint rivalry that challenges the ND-USC rivalry in its ferocity (/casts sidelong glance at Five Guys), we decided to try our hands at recreating what is just about In-N-Out's most popular item, the double-double: a double cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, grilled onions (or raw, depending on your preference), and the restaurant's thousand-island-like spread.
Now, what makes this burger so awesome is, in part, eating it while nestled in its little paper wrapper, in southern California, with the palm trees waving nearby, the salt air on your skin, and your wallet just $3.
