content: The Cook Out is an interesting beast because no one can seem to figure out where they're based.  I've heard reports that they are out of Greensboro (NC), but they don't seem to have a web site at this writing, and it just doesn't seem to be anything that anyone can verify.\n\nNonetheless, the company is doing something right.  Their down-home style, the original hamburgers \""cooked outdoors style\"", the 36 \""creamery\"" premium milkshakes and the retro styling of the building has kept the double drive-thru near our house hopping since they opened nearly six months ago.\n\nMy only complaint is that the milkshakes are more like a soft-serve sundae.  Nothing wrong with that, mind you, it just makes it hard to drink through the straw.  The flavor is stll quite good, you understand.  It's just better eaten with a spoon.\n\nAs to the food, it's good.  I'm not a huge fan of burgers, so it's tough to judge, but I've been happy enough with what I've had to eat, and the family seems to be okay with what they have had as well.  Not earth-shattering, but not bad either.  Probably worth checking out the next time you're driving by one.
