SMASHBURGER JOINS THE BOSTON-AREA BURGER WARS

Say hello to Smashburger. In December, the Denver-based chain opened its first Massachusetts location in Natick right across from the Natick Mall.  

The burgers are smashed right on the grille here, seared and seasoned to give them their tasty flavor. They come in two sizes: smash and big smash. Burger prices are very reasonable from $4.99-$6.99. I tried the "BBQ, Bacon & Cheddar" burger, which has a light cranberry BBQ sauce, applewood-smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and haystack onions. What a tasty combination of flavors and the burger itself is so flavorful and juicy. Melts in your mouth. Sure, there are safe options like the "Classic Smash" cheeseburger and their "Bacon Cheeseburger," but I'm looking forward to trying some of Smashburger's more interesting burgers. "The New Englander" comes with cranberry sauce and grilled onions. There's also the "Truffle Mushroom Swiss" with truffle mayo, baby portabella mushrooms and swiss. There's also a "Spinach, Cucumber & Goat Cheese" burger and an "Avocado Club" burger. Mmmm. By the way, you can order a chicken sandwich with all of the same combos.

Order up some of their famous "Smashfries" on the side. You get a whole basket of skinny fries tossed in rosemary, olive oil and garlic for $2. They also have regular regular French fries, haystack onions and sweet potato fries. If you want something healthy, you've got to try Smashburger's "Veggie Frites," a nice portion of carrots and beans.

Other menu items include salads, veggie burgers, hot dogs and kids meals. Smashburger is also known for their milkshakes made with Haagen-Dazs ice cream. They also serve bottled beer.

Smashburger plans to open a dozen new locations in the Boston area in the coming years. No doubt, I'll be back for more of these mouth-watering burgers.
