In-N-Out Burger is making good on a promise to open its first Texas burger restaurants in May. Executive Carl Van Fleet just confirmed that the Irvine chain is shooting for two grand openings on the same day next week.

“We are very enthusiastic about our Frisco and Allen locations and the first In-N-Out Burger restaurants in Texas! We hope to open both of them next week. While I can’t give you a specific date just yet, I can say that we are working toward opening both restaurants the same day and that should happen next week.”

The restaurants are the first of at least eight known locations where In-N-Out plans to open in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. The chain has repeatedly said that Allen or Frisco will be among the first restaurants to open. (Locations/Addresses)

A double whammy opening of two on the same day seems a bit strategic. That typically doesn’t happen when In-N-Out enters a new state. But the buzz around Texas is so high I’m sure they’re opening two restaurants as a form of first-day crowd control.

Tell us: Are you living in Texas? Will you be there on opening day? If so, write in and let us know what you are hearing about the Allen and Frisco openings.
