“We at Smashburger love burgers and can’t wait to celebrate National Burger Month,” says Smashburger Founder Tom Ryan. “Our promotions and giveaways are a great way for us to connect with our fellow burger lovers across the country.”
Named for the cooking method used to create the perfect burger, Smashburgers are a one-third or half-pound ball of beef smashed on a flat grill to sear in all the juicy flavor. To further the “better burger” experience, Smashburgers are served on a toasted artisan bun and topped with a selection of real cheeses, the freshest produce and top-quality condiments.
 
Smashburger is known for its savory burgers, but the restaurant also serves up delicious Smashchicken sandwiches, Smashdogs and Smashsalads, with sides like veggie frites and rosemary and garlic–seasoned Smashfries. Burger lovers can pair their meals with beer, wine, Häagen-Dazs shakes, root-beer floats and Coca-Cola™ products.
