Our Story


It was 1991 when the Qattom family decided to expand their convenient store and gas station operation outside of Harris County and move to Wharton County, more specific the city of Wharton. Coming from a big town environment to a small community was different for the Qattom's and the business environment they were use to.

Knowing something had to change to make this business successful, they decided to add food. Why not? Mr. Qattom's first job in making hamburgers was terrific. It wasn't long before, they put in a big grill, and made it country style. Wanting to do something different, instead of using the standard 4, 5 and 8 oz frozen patties, the Qattom's decided to use a fresh, hand-made 9 oz patty. In addition, instead of using just salt and pepper, they came up with their own seasoning. Within a few weeks from the time they served their first 9 oz grilled hamburger, customers were ordering them by the dozen. In fact, so many at a time, that the orders were going out in empty beer boxes to hold all the customer's orders!

In 2000, the Qattom's opened their second store near Greatwood, in Richmond, Texas. This was the first store to be named 9er's Grill, named after the now famous, 9 oz hamburger they first served up.

It wasn't long after the Qattom's added stores in Katy, Texas, Richmond, Texas (Pecan Grove) and Houston, Texas (Blackhawk and Beltway & South), along with their first location in Montgomery, IL, just outside of Chicago. In addition, the menu has been expanded to include much more than the famous 9 oz hamburger. Please take a look at our online menu to see more.
