Oklahoma invented the fried onion burger during the Depression, and the world hasn’t been the same since. It’s simple—just onions, meat and a bun—and yet somehow transcendent. Tucker’s has the best onion burgers in the city, and possibly the state, which is really saying something. Order a double with fries and add a side salad if you want a good laugh: the Tucker’s “salad” is actually made of Fritos, pinto beans, cheddar cheese and a handful of iceberg lettuce leaves.
