A strong craving for one of Tulsa’s best burgers sent me on a cross town trek to Wranglers BBQ at 71st and Memorial last week. I’ve been patronizing Wranglers for years, and being a self-proclaimed “burger guru,” I can honestly say that they make one of the best burgers I’ve ever had.
Wranglers is owned and operated by husband and wife team, Joe and Cindy. Customer service is very important to Joe and Cindy and so at this drive-up burger joint, Cindy can always be found cheerfully filling orders and chatting with her regular customers.
Cindy almost always recognizes her loyal customers by their orders even before they pull up to her window.
“Hi there doll! I was just thinking about you!” are often the first words out of her mouth. Her bright red hair and English-by-way-of-South Africa accent characterize her sunny disposition.
Joe can rarely be seen, but can often be heard around closing time when he’s arguing with Cindy for allowing customers to order more burgers when he’s ready to shut down the grill for the night.
A long line of cars can always be found snaked around this popular lunch time spot, but the delicious food is well worth the wait. Thick juicy steak burgers, BBQ specialties, and warm reception always ensures for repeat customers.
Next time you’re in the area and need a break from the mall mayhem, head on over to Wranglers for a little mom and pop dining experience that’s sure to make your day.
