We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Everyone Needs an Obsession – Here’s My Plan to Eat at Every In-N-Out Burger In One Epic Adventure Before I Die

Signing up for credit cards through partner links earns us a commission. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Here’s our full advertising policy: How we make money.

Being a Southern California native, I have been obsessed with In-N-Out Burger since I was a kid.  If you have ever been to In-N-Out you know what I mean.

Happy employees, clean restaurants, well made food at a reasonable price, and an intoxicating smell from a mile away.  My wife and I even had it at our wedding!

In-N-Out Made Our Wedding Day That Much Better!

No matter where I have lived – California, Arizona, and now Utah – I’ve always been within a short drive of an In-N-Out Burger.  To add to that, my wife worked for In-N-Out in Midvale, Utah.  And Seeing first-hand how well their employees are treated made me fall in love with the restaurant even more.

And after I saw the viral article about a couple visiting every Cracker Barrel, I made up in my mind that I was going to visit every single In-N-Out Burger location in America!

335 In-N-Out Burgers Here I Come!

In-N-Out Burger currently has 335 locations in 6 states – California, Arizona, Oregon, Utah, Texas and Nevada.  They recently announced an opening for a store in Colorado Springs, Colorado, but I am only talking about visiting operating stores at the published date of this article.  I’m guessing I’ve already been to nearly 40 different In-N-Out Burger locations, but I will be visiting EVERY location on this journey.

There Are A Lot Of Burgers And Fries In My Future!

I am planning on flying from Salt Lake City, Utah to Dallas, Texas to start my adventure there.  Then I’ll hit up the ~20 locations in the Dallas area and make my way down to San Antonio.  From there, I’ll fly from San Antonio to Medford, Oregon and take an epic road trip to tackle the 200+ stores all throughout Oregon and California with a brief jump over to the Reno-Tahoe area.

Once I reach the most southern store in Chula Vista, California, I’ll take a drive on I-8 into southern Arizona and work my way up to Nevada.  Once I’ve hit the Las Vegas area stores, it is into the final stretch of a lot of animal fries and shakes throughout Utah, and I will end at the most northern store in Utah, which is in Riverdale.

Why This Matters So Much To Me

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve recognized how I’ve become attached to my favorite brands.  Whether it be In-N-Out Burger, American Express, or Delta Airlines, I find myself going to bat for these brands.  When someone tries to tell me that Five Guys is better than In-N-Out, it becomes an all out war!

With how close my wife and I have grown to the brand together as a couple, it has sentimental value.  At a company picnic we even got to meet In-N-Out’s CEO, Lynsi Snyder.

We Got To Meet Lynsi Snyder, The Owner Of In-N-Out!

Bottom Line

As far as I can tell, no one has ever accomplished this publicly.  This would be a lifelong memory.

Travel was never meant to be cookie-cutter.  Make your own adventures, even if these may seem crazy.  It’s dreams like these that are realistic for me thanks to the miles and points I earn from travel rewards credit cards!
