We already have the winner of the best burger in Spain in 2023. This year almost 300 establishments from all over the country have participated in the III Campeonato de España de Hamburguesas held throughout the month of February. Only 15 finalists remained and today it was revealed which establishment won first place at a gala held in A Coruña. On this occasion, the prize went to the Burger Food Porn establishment, which has three locations in Seville and was a finalist in previous editions.
This year they have managed to win the award thanks to their Double Cheese Bacon burger, made with 2 patties of 110g of Galician blonde dry aged 45 days, matured cheddar, fried egg sauce with chistorra sausage, crispy smoked bacon and their brioche bun. With their motto “less is more”, they chose this proposal because, as they say, their product cannot be camouflaged and has to be in all its splendour. The main ingredients are the meat and the bread (homemade brioche made with French butter). It is accompanied by a cheddar that is matured in its own dry age chambers (just like the meat), a sauce that will surprise you and smoked bacon. It is priced at 12,90 €. Launched in a limited edition at their premises in Av. de Alemania, 15 (Seville). But surely, thanks to this recognition, it will now become one of their best-selling products.
The second best hamburger, in the Basque Country
The podium was completed by EatyJeT (Álava) and Lume (Santiago de Compostela), in second and third place respectively. EatyJet, Gastronomía Nómada have achieved this with their proposal Jet Lag Burger, which came up with the idea of creating a burger that includes the necessary ingredients to combat jet lag. These are: brioche bun, 2 pieces of 95g of old special matured Galician blonde cow, smoked cheddar cheese, our guanciale cured and smoked for 24 hours, yolk and bourbon demi-glace, Nordic pickles and Jet Lag secret sauce. They are at Tarragona 8, Hotel Lakua (Vitoria).
Closing the podium of the best burgers in Spain is the Galicia Japan Burger, the proposal of Lume in Santiago de Compostela. It is one of chef Lucía Freitas’ travelling burgers and is inspired by Japan. It is a “Real Buey” burger, brioche bread, cheese, okonomiyaki sauce, green sisho, pickled cabbage and katshuobushi. The restaurant is located at Rúa Ameas, 2 (Santiago de Compostela).
