Most chain burger joints use a specialized microwave oven to get the burger from the storage temperature to 'it's hot off the grill' temperature.
It's usually just a high-power oven, although some joints have claimed they tune them to go after proteins over water (yeah, right). Nonetheless, as 95% of
the moisture content in a burger is the patty, it'll get most of the heating.
And from a personal perspective, when it comes to the chain fast food joints they're all about equivalent to me. Given, the all there is here in 'Toon
is McD, BK, A&W, and Wendy's. Of them, the only one I tend to avoid is A&W. They're expensive and their patties are seasoned with way too much
salt. I tend to go to McD's a lot, as the wife likes them and their current menu has some decent items on it.
(If we're talking somewhat less fast-foody chains, then I'm going to pull out Fuddruckers, as they're awesome.)
