🍔WE NEED YOUR HELP🍔

We're headed to the First-Ever Burgers & Brews Showdown in Stephenville but there's only one problem....

WHAT BURGER ARE WE BRINGING? 👀

This is your chance to help us build a showdown-worthy burger. Think BIG, but inside the bun. Of course we will have our ground smoked brisket smashburger as the staple, but what toppings, what sauce? Do we drizzle our house-made sauce or our dirty sauce you all crave! Maybe we bring something completely new and different to showcase here! 🤤

Drop your dream burger in the comments or one of your favorites from us!
Here's a look at some of our favorites throughout the years...
