Gold Winner Ace Burger Company
Silver Winner Cheese Curds Gourmet Burgers + Poutinerie
Bronze Winner Darrell’s Peanut Butter Burger
The year’s most interesting category saw burger-loving voters divided between more choices then ever. After years of Brooklyn Warehouse playing second fiddle to the unstoppable Darrell’s, its powerhouse little sister Ace has finally dethroned the Peanut Butter Burger. The secret to these insanely popular patties? “It’s the product that comes in the door and what’s in our fridge that people voted for,” says co-owner George Christakos who’s happy to put Ace’s suppliers on a pedestal, giving a love Getaway Farm for its grass-fed awesomeness. “We feel its our responsibility to challenge customers. and we want to thank them for trusting us and helping to make our brands what they are.” Brands aside, Ace wins by keeping it local, uncomplicated and above all, classic.“It goes back to that comfort food, we like to think we eat healthy, but we are all suckers for a tasty hamburger. Period.”
