Five Guys has captured this category every year since its inception. Can the national chain continue to fend off the local challengers?

I may give it a shot next time I'm there. But i have always been down with both their sliced & chopped beef sandwiches.Look at these burger options Pok-E-Joes:
Fiesta BurgerI love the C&C
Refried beans, corn chips, onions, salsa, cheese, mayo, and our freshly made pico de gallo make this full-flavored burger a Hill City favorite.
World Famous C&C
Pico de gallo, chili, and corn chips give this burger a Texas-sized flavor.
Pok-E-Western
A Lynchburg tradition. Our Texas Burger topped with a fried egg and yellow relish. We didn't invent it, we just perfected it.
Two for One Burger
Two great flavors together for the first time. Our third pound handcrafted burger topped with our slow cooked brisket and smothered with our Texas 'Q sauce. A beef lover's favorite.
