- Huell takes us on an hour-long California’s Gold special which looks at the history of In-N-Out Burger. This is the first time television cameras have ever been allowed to shoot inside a store. And this special also includes an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the In-N-Out Headquarters in Baldwin Park where it all started back in 1948.

I worked at In-N-Out while in college. I knew two of these guys really well. Bob was my Divisional Manager and Chuck used to do QFC (Quality, Freshness, & Cleanliness) while I worked there. They were really good people and In-N-Out really taught me a lot about really working hard for your money. I would definitely recommend working there.
People don't say enough how hard it is to actually work in fast food.
@@shayprimrose1678best thing about employment at these stores is that they aren’t afraid to hire plenty of people! I hear they take care of their employees! Working hard is a prerequisite for any job!! Never came across a rude employee in 50 years! Ooh did I just say that number? 😬
I had the privilege of working under Chuck Papez the manager of In-N-Out Burger in Covina on Arrow Hwy. in 1965.....My very first job while going to school....A true gentleman and great employer....
Rest in Peace, Red. Love you.
Yep I worked for Chuck as well, good man
My kids worked at #2...but the newer one on Grand and Arrow. I've been going to this store in Covina since the mid 80's as a Cal Poly student. It was so great to see each of my two kids work at the Covina # 2 store!
Thank you to the late Huell Howser! You sir are also a part of California's Gold.
I have this on DVD, it is very special to me because I was born in BP, born on Francisquito, 2 blocks away from store # 1 that years later I worked at. I was blessed to have relationships with alot of people in this video. Most of us love In-N-Out, but to some of us its more than a good Burger. Esther was a living Angel.
I have lots of Amazing Memories from my In-N-Out Days.. We are very proud of Lyndsay for making her family proud.
Huell Howser was an incredible Man, I still watch alot of his documentary on youtube, definitely California Gold..❤ I can write way more, but its time to get ready for work so for now I digress... Much Love ✌🏼
Right on !!!!! My wife met Bob Williams wife when they both shared a room in the hospital and Mrs Williams only
had wonderful things to say about this company and family, In n out is a great place for burgers 🍔 and I like the fact that Lynsi is a classic car enthusiasts like me , and when I finish my 69 chevelle very soon I'm taking it to store numbers 1 and going through the drive thru since I live in west Covina about 8 minutes away!!!!!!
I have all of Huells' videos and are a keepsake.
Hello, Can you tell me what year this was recorded please ?
Good memories,Chuck Papez best division manager ever .The man always had a smile also worked with Larry Warnick he was my manager at #4 on San Bernardino Rd .

I'm surprised there was no mention of the two palm trees forming an X at store locations...
It's a mad mad mad world is one of my favorite movies
we been trying to get a in n out burger out here in yucca valley ca good idea there is pleanty of room here in yucca valley ca to build one.
i remember the one in Baldwin park ca there was two lanes.
I went to Sierra vista high down the street from the original store in the 70's, spent much time there.
Great Episode, In and Out is my favorite burger that I get protein style. The Shelby Mustang GT 350 T-shirt is my favorite!
2 of my favorites in one video!!!
Wow!!! I lived across the street from the original. Paddy Lane...a dead end street when I was child, now runs straight to downtown Bolen.
Huell Howser was the best. Grew up watching California Gold.
Huell would not be happy to see what’s happened to his home state.
BTW there is an IN & OUT BURGER on 1970 Crater lake highway Medford Oregon
Eye was there B 4 eye left to fly to Hawaii
Adam The Woo is this generation’s Huell Howser.
Agreed
44:14 Shows 2 features of NNO: crossed palms on Huell's shirt & the Harris big rig trailer supplying the burger beef .
Delicious double-double, fresh fries! I get mine w grilled onion, extra tomato, side of dill pickles, side of special sauce. I get it protein style.
You will love how nice they are, and the delicious food!
I hope it stays family owned so it will keep the quality!
❤️ In and Out!
We are getting two In ‘N Out’s here in southern Idaho and we are excited. The first one opens at the end of the month. 🍔🍔
Nothing special at all. You must've moved to Idaho from California.
@@markmullen1852 Always amazes me when people think that their tastes and opinions are the only ones that matter. 👍🏼
@barrytipton1249 It's mediocre at best. I definitely know what an excellent chesseburger tastes like. It's not hard to distinguish between mediocrity and excellent. Californians think In N Out is excellent because it started in California and most Californians think that Calufornia is the best state in the U.S. therefore, In N Out has the best burgers. I had a Shack Shack burger in the SLC airport that was 10x better than In N Out. Here in Coer d Alene, Roger's Burgers puts In N Out to shame.
@@markmullen1852It's not mediocre, all the ingredients are fresh, never frozen, and you can customize it any which way.
Seem to be one of those hate California anything.
In-N-Out is dollar for dollar one of the best fast food burgers out there period. And was the first one doing the freshness and quality control out there when the McDs and Burger Kings of the world were slinging precooked and steamed patties and prefrozen products.
Places like Shake Shack and 5 Guys came MUCH later, decades later, basically emulating the In-N-Out best processes. Shake Shack does a decent burger and shake--that's it. The rest is forgettable. And they do it at a much higher price point. An
In-N-Out double double animal style is still quality for a decent price point.
Also prefer the fries, especially animal style over anything Shake Shack offers in fries, loaded, or otherwise.
@@markmullen1852Shacks MUCH newer. Only the burgers and shakes are ok. The rest of their menu is a miss. Prefer I&O fries, especially animal style over Shack's, loaded or otherwise.
I&O was doing the fresh ingredients (meat, buns, veggies, fries), freshly made items, never premade/frozen well before shack or 5 g uys got into the business. And you can customize at I&O any which way.
true legend. just happy go lucky great attitude. something to aspire to!
Thanks for sharing this episode. 👍👍
I went to Texas last year 2020 and there are more than 4 states. I don't know how long ago of making this video
Very first in world drive through restaurants
Now In & Out still building their company looking to serve the east coast putting processing facilities in Franklin TN.
In and Out Burgers are a force to be reckoned with! I've worked for Burger King as a youth and they were nothing like this. McDonald's certainly has more stores but the mediocre at best quality of their food and the fact you use a kiosk to order which I feel ruins a lot of the atmosphere in ordering and eating their food. Still, In and Out Burgers fries are only fried once and I feel they aren't quite as good. Smashing the beef patties would result in a tastier burger but you do have to admit they do have a system, and it works! Their wages create loyalty and their positive atmosphere goes even furthur. The ONLY reason they don't franchise more is a function of the original family and distance from a product center!
Awesome
Ester Synder uses to sign our pay checks; it is & was a great company to work for
Update : As of Oct 2023 there are now 391 Stores and more on the way
Now in Texas.
FYI: now in 2022 there are 379 location all over the USA
What year was this shot? Surely not 2021.
2010
I love this, but I wish it wasn't so "bright". Is there another upload of this that's not as washed out?
Chapman University has website with all the episodes. It’s accessible to the public at no charge. I don’t remember if the quality is better than what’s posted here.
@@ceciliacorson1804 Unfortunately, the quality on the website was about the same.
I did find another video on TH-cam that was of better quality, but it was only a clip of maybe 13 minutes of one particular section.
Well, In-N-Out makes great burgers...but they also create a public nuisance with traffic and lines that snake out to the right-of-ways and cause accidents wherever they decide to open a restaurant. Great food, poor restaurant design.
I eat. my burger at home and cut iy in half its messy greasy fries light w chickfilet sauce. 4x4 2x extra toppings no wrap no salt to go. chock shake.
Today I went to Arby's for the first time in literally several decades. Had been there in Florida once and wasn't a fan of their food. Figured I'd try it today as they've added cheesesteak and other sandwiches to their menu.
The attitude of the employee I dealt with at Arby's was AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL, like he loathed his job. No hello, no greeting, no "Can I take your order?" even. Just gave a surly look when I myself said hi to him. GHETTO AF attitude. Since I ordered a lot of things he asked if I wanted any sauces and I said, "Yes, a bunch of [insert type of sauce].' He goes, with a smartass attitude, "What's 'a bunch'". LMAO
Now, here's the kicker: This Arby's is virtually NEXT DOOR to an In-N-Out where I picked up some things earlier in the week. 1,000% DIFFERENCE IN ATTITUDE AND PROFESSIONALISM!!! LIKE NIGHT AND DAY!!!
I can only HOPE that Arby's corporate office sees this comment!
Is the granddaughter adopted?
Went limited my desire for in n out was they dropped Pepsi
32:35 I miss those prices!
Hopefully they keep this a family business after the current owner retires
Rip Huell me and my dad used to always would watch these episodes when they would come on TV. Such an amazing show showcasing our amazing state that we love
I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad experience at in&out . Never encountered a negative employee, they always smile .
It's a real treat going to in and out the staff are great and the people who are eating there always look so happy good burgers fries and shakes
thats the beauty of a majority Caucasian team
@@notafortnitegamer
100%. No one wants to admit it either. I’ve never once had my order messed up, unlike every other fast food joints that have staffs that are overwhelmingly “diverse.”
It’s also why products made in the USA back when the demographics were much different (way less “diverse”) were always of such high-quality and lasted forever.
I have been going to In-N-Out for 35 years and I can honestly say in all those years I have never had bad burger. They really are a first class operation, every location is absolutely clean In-N-Out and employee's very nice.
We all miss you Huell. RIP
I've had a few in the past 20 some years.
going on 26 years of INO fandom myself, and unfortunately, I have notice the quality beginning to slip with every visit. Seems the toxic ideals of the underappreciated and underpaid modern US food worker are finally starting to pervade our beloved INO.
35 years some would get obesity eating those delicious double double burgers for that many years hello was so cool he did these classic shows in 80s and 90s and this episode is a real tasty a gem❤❤
Huell howser classic guy cool California's gold

Truly an incredible business model. My local IN-N-OUT is amazing, always so good. Thank you for this gem!
Sunday, October 29, 2023 In-N-Out celebrates 75 years!!! 🍔
Two California icons in one vid. Nice!
So cool learning about the history of In-N-Out.
Their burgers are the best in the fast food market.
Definitely worth the 50 mile drive to Keizer, Oregon for me.
When I’m in or near Keizer, I go to Nancy Jo’s. I like In-n-Out, but I can get it anytime.
This is one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen. Thank you! The world isn’t the same without Huell Howser in it.
I miss Huell Howser
Whenever I return from a business trip, I stop by my local In-N-Out. IMHO, White Castle and Five Guys just don’t compare. Does anyone remember when the fries used to be served with the skins still on?
Thank you so much for posting this
My pleasure. :) It was hard to find!
@@elijahhenry7404 what year was this filmed please?
Hi, this was filmed February 2010! Just now seeing this, apologies!
I love In N Out animal style fries and double doubles. They are awesome. Huell Howser thank you for all of your documentaries. You are missed. Hope you are having a great time in heaven.
My grandfather lived, grew up & graduated high school in Los Angeles, California, back in the 1940’s. So - my family knew and always heard all about In-N-Out Burger. My father and grandfather would always stop and take us to In-N-Out for a meal when we would travel & vacation in Southern California, whether it was during a visit to Disneyland or hanging out at Newport Beach, Laguna Beach or taking in a Dodgers game at Dodger Stadium. We finally welcomed our first In-N-Out Store, here in Las Vegas, NV on West Sahara Avenue, back in 1992. We still enjoy & continue to frequent In-N-Out, at least once a month and are life long customers. God bless the Synder Family and the entire In-N-Out team.
In-N-Out Burger: an All-American and Southern California iconic brand & lifestyle
🌴🍔🍟🥤🥇❤️
I lived very close to the second In n Out in Azusa, Ca! Was a great time to be a teenager and drive through with friends at midnight!! I also moved to Vegas in 80! My only regret about leaving Ca was not having accessibility to these burgers! So every trip back and forth to Ca, it was a must that we would pull off of Lynwood in Victorville and get our fixes! Was a glorious day when the stores started coming to Vegas!! I would happily drive to either the Nellis or the Sahara locations! But one day I decided to call the corporate headquarters and suggest that they build a location near me! I’m at Green Valley Pkwy and 215! They kindly spoke with me as I told them that if they built one near me, they would come! Sure enough and I kid you not, within a year they did! Shortly after that they built another and I was equally two miles between both locations and they have a constant line any and every time I go to either one!! That was around early to mid 2000’s! Crazy now there’s a new one 3 miles from me on St Rose!! And they are ALL busy! What a phenomenon!!
Huell was a genuinely good person. Always enthusiastic and interested in his subject matter, which made his show so enjoyable. He was epic with Tracey Ullman's Ruby Romaine. Now I'm off to In-n-Out for a double-double. Legendary goodness!
In n Out is The Best ❤
RIP brother man! I’m headed to In N Out tonight! They are a Christian company with great values.
California Gold has a place in my heart Huell Howser is the man!
Lived in So Cal for fourty years just recently moved to Ohio-In n Out is a California icon I greatly miss this place not just the food but waiting in line anticipating getting a double double animal style and the fries are excellent if you live in So Cal you have for sure been her thousands of times and the employees are first class and always super nice they opened at 10:30 am and the line would go all day until 1:30 am many late nights sitting in line jamming tunes and getting your order with a smile and guaranteed excellent food
I always say Cha Ching waiting in line! Good for the in n out family!!
It's been 46 years since I had my first burger meal at In-N-Out. I remember when it was all guys working there. Oh how my friends enjoyed going after school just to look at the workers and grab a bite to eat. Now I have the pleasure to take my grandkids. Great burgers then and great burgers now. 😊❤
Howser is California GOLD.
Probably the only burger place that will actually pay you a good wage
Ya, from what I can remember, they’ve always payed their employees well, to me that’s more important than the food.
Am on a Huell Howser marathon, I adore your style Huell. xoxo
he was so nice. He had a home next door to my Aunt's home in Palm Springs, and would stop by whenever we had family gatherings. His on-screen personality was not an act. Guy was EXACTLY the same IRL.
@@kind2311does Huell Howser eat at In N Out Burger I’m sure he has be
He’s wearing a in n out shirt I’m sure he eats at in n out who doesn’t like in n out there the bomb
@@mikebarooshian7255 uh.... ok?
@@kind2311 🌞
Back in the 1970s when I attended Pasadena City College, I lived a block away from the In & Out Burger on Walnut. I'd go everyday to enjoy the best burger that was ever made and their fries and grilled onions were the best! Thanks for posting Huell👍
The lettering department blew my mind. To think they make THEIR OWN SIGNS. I guess I shouldn’t expect anything less from in-n-out
If Every Small business follow in their footsteps, then America will be #1 in commerce and customer service.
It’s a testament to keeping and growing privately owned businesses can also be great for business.
I agree! Unlike franchises, family holdings care for their employees and keep originality. The best lesson of "In and out" is it adjusts to the changing time while keeping its originality. Which is a bonus.
I will never get tired of In-N-Out!!!😀😀😀😀
The smiles worn by everyone in this segment is contagious, my grinceps ache after watching. 4x4 Animal Style with Chopped Chiles ;) . Miss you Huell.
hahhaa I take the same burger but add raw onion and remove the lettuce and tomato. Chopped chilies are a game changer. I keep a jar from Giuliano in my fridge for homemade smashburgers.
I'd never heard of this chain but it's the type of place I'd love to do business with and I love the interviewer's style. Very professional and also comforting. Good work!
Sadly Huell Howser passed some years age. He was a former teacher.
Back in the 80's they had In-N-Out Burger bumper stickers but, they stopped making them because a lot of people cut the sticker to read In-N-Out urge. Being they put a bible verse on their cups it didn't quite fit in with their message. I don't eat fast food as much as I used to but, In-N-Out is one of the best IMO.
I stopped eating beef a while ago but I still take my kids to In-n-Out every Friday night after we go to Big Al (gaming place) in Milpitas, Ca. The kids absolutely love this place. I enjoy the fries and the place reminds of an innocent/fun place to eat at.
You can get animal fries or a grilled cheese! Both are vegetarian
When I started to watch this episode - I began to salivate with rememberance of the consistency of the flavor of the burgers and fries. To all the In N Out crews, nice job!
And those great inn n out shakes
I was born two blocks from there, damn I miss home
How far away from home now?
My wife met Bob Williams wife when she was in the hospital because they both shared a room, infact my wife introduced her to me and boy did we have a great conversation about the In N Out company, infact her husband was on the flight that killed members of the Snyder family when the plane crashed on approach to orange county Airport but fortunately Bob and grandma Ester got off at bracket Airport in LA Verne CA, because grandma Ester wasn't feeling well and Bob lived close to LA Verne , Mrs Williams spoke very highly of the company and the Snyder family , she said they are a fantastic company to work for and a great Christian family !!!!!!!!
I miss Huell Howser & California Gold!
Huell took us to many wonderful places. He is greatly missed. The In n out company pays their employees well.🤩
As a native Southern California of 66 years, I will never forget Huell Howser and In-N-Out Burger, especially their stance against those immoral fascistic vaccine mandates, earning them a customer for life; God bless them.
Huell was such a flirt. Sure love him and miss him a lot.
@@SH-zz2ef yeah he raped me
I left California😭
You can always go back for vacation!
I miss Huell Howser.
Loved Huell Howser. I can't believe they don't advertise.
It’s because they don’t need too. They have a great reputation 🤩
I'm not a California native but I lived there all during the 80's. The first time I had an In-N-Out Double Double was in Pasadena. The store was on corner of Craig and Footbill Blvd. It was my first time and I was curious and the smell coming from that IN-N-OUT stand literally drew me in. After that it's pure instincts. Just check it out. THE IN-N-OUT URGE.
Still in that area
I have good memories in the 80’s getting in an out in garden grove and going to highway 39 drive in theater!
My wife and I know exactly what you're talking about. We spent quite a few nights at Highway 39 Drive-In considering we lived a stones throw next to it On Pacific St.
Hwy 39 theatre wouldn't be the old Foothill Drive-in, would it???
@@stevenelliott8690 No, it was called the Highway 39 Drive-in. It was located on the corner of Trask Ave and Beach Blvd in Westminster, Ca. (Orange County). I, literally lived a stone's throw from it back in the late 70's - early 80's. Highway 39 was aka Beach Blvd in OC and continued up toward the San Gabriel Mtns being called Asuza Ave. in LA Co.
I wish we had one in Atlanta
The best
in n out is a delight to eat a burger...beating 5 guys in quality n price... from chips 2 patties it is always the same high quality... no need to wait ... fresh every bite.. n it is cheap..everything works like clockwork...
GOD bless the owners family! super genuine nice ppl! very rare!
Hewell Houser is the best. Watched him on PBS. He was veteran, I think Marine. Rest in Peace brother.
I used to go to one In n Out Burgers in early 70s biking on Arrow Hwy east of Claremont. Great fun.
upland
@@626323909 I think you are referring to the Arrow hwy and Mountain avenue burger place in Upland. That is not an In and Out, it is called EZ take out burger.
@@gmazz0913 i been to that 1 an in n out by lowes in upland
I moved out of California many years ago. One of the main things I miss the most is In-N-Out Burgers they're just so tasty, and I don't even like hamburgers it's the only one I would eat.
I was raised in BP and ate at In-N -Out #1. I moved to Sacramento in 1985. Around 1990 Fresno opened that In-N-Out. A Sacramento morning Rock radio DJ that used to be from LA , made the announcement over the radio of the restaurants Fresno opening 1 month away. He spoke of how much he loved In-N-Out, his experiences and was going to the Fresno opening. At that time that was the closest In-N-Out to Sacramento, 4 hours each way. Ex LA people from Sacramento chimed in to the station as they wanted to go and tag along also to the Fresno opening. Instead a Commuter van was suggested. Instead of a van to travel in, enough interest for 2 buses maxed out went on that In-N-Out Urge run! Locals from Sacramento could not understand what the fuss was over that bus trip and the burgers. I believe there are now 5 In-N-Outs in the Sacramento area. The ultimate In-N-Out run!
They only hire the best candidates. Good attitude, people skills and responsible habits. In fact they are among the highest paid fast food purveyors.
Imagine, In N Out burgers truly independent and not owned by some big corporation. I have read some negative comments but that’s the exception. Still regional and it should stay that way. Please no franchising. I miss Huell Howser and California Gold.
A couple years ago I heard that if In N Out were to be bought or go public they'd be valued at about the same per store value as Chipotle, the highest valued chain per location. CMG market cap is currently $60B, or $18M per store, which would equate to almost $7B.
This was Fun to watch. I really like In-N-Out and the Hidden Bible Verses
I miss Huell. He was just an excitable boy.😢
We need a mom and pop I an O up here in crestline Ca ?
If you havent tried IN-N-OUT yer missin out...I lived in LA a log time now live in florida...sury missing my in-n-out double-double with cheese.
Best burgers + best employees = a great eating experience.
Yes it is
It always amazes me how always everyone he interviews seems to be awkward lol like how H intelligent on all things facts might have intimidated the intervieviee 😂
He talked over everyone but in such a homey/nice way that you couldn't help but be good with it.
Upper managers make 160,000….
I had my first in & out burgers 🍔 it was the worst thing I have tasted the fries 🍟 are garbage 🗑 my rating of this hamburger joint -10
Sure thing. Fresh never frozen or premade food must be garbage
RIP Huell
Californians think these are the best hamburgers on planet Earth. Im not from California. I finally tried them this year. Mediocre hamburger at best. Im so sick and tired of people from California thinking these are the pinnacle of hamburgers. They're not.
In the fast-food drive-through category, they may be.
@@GH-oi2jf Shake Shack DESTROYS In N Out.
@@markmullen1852Shack is MUCH newer. And only the burgers and shakes are good. Rest of their menu is forgettable. Much prefer INO fries, especially animal style over Shack's, loaded or otherwise.
In-N-Out was doing the fresh ingredients, freshly made, never premade or frozen well before Shack or 5 g uys got into the business. And you can customize at INO any which way.
