Hello all,

Bit of a strange question, was hoping I could get some insight here. My brother is turning 30, and for his birthday party tomorrow (I say party but it's just us and his gf), he wants to relive the early 2000's with some honest, 4th-grade style fun. This includes video games and the quintessential "how in the world can you eat this kind of food and not die" spread, which includes pizza, Kool Aid Jammers, gushers, fruit by the foot, Doritos, wings, etc.

Part of this spread should include home-made char grilled hamburgers. My brother mentioned that he wanted this specifically. However, I have never come to own a classic grill on which to make said classic burgers.

I'm looking for a burger joint that is NOT flashy or fancy, not particularly low quality either, but something that would resemble what a dad in his crispy New Balances and freshly mowed lawn would serve to his kids after a long day in the pool. Maybe they'd go to the movies later and even get M&Ms.

Is there a burger place I can buy these from? I am not a fan of the Burger Joint, not looking for Squable's fancy small burgers, but something along the lines of an HISD burger or what Kevin & Jason's dad made. He wants it to feel like it's middle school lunchtime, or a middle school weekend, and I want to deliver.

Thanks!

(PS - I already got all the necessary Pokemon and Mario gear including cups, decor and plates. Any other ideas are appreciated)
