I had the opportunity on a recent trip to the new Smashburger location in Orem, Utah at the corner of State and University, to go behind the scenes and watch the making of a Smashburger. My main question was, What really makes a smashburger a Smashburger? The answer may surprise you:

With Smashburger hitting Utah by storm, the common question is What is Smashburger? Smashburger is a unique blend of flavor, smashing and gourmet burger magic. Here’s the Smashburger Menu so you can go in with something in mind:

By popular request and with a bit of excitement myself, the first Smashburger burger review is here. One thing that I already like about Smashburger is they have a few unique items for each location. Utah gets the mighty Beehive Burger. So of course, let’s review the Smashburger Beehive Burger.

The Smashburger is cooked by smashing. When you see the patty for the first time you can’t help but see it really looks smashed and seared. The patty was delicious, moist and hit the spot. The overall burger itself was pretty good too. Personally, I could have used a little more sauce. The Beehive burger is a 1/3 or 1/2 pound burger with honey BBQ sauce, applewood smoked bacon with cheddar cheese and haystack onions. They also have a variety of bun selections but the standard Beehive burger is in the egg bun which is perfect. Overall, it’s a good burger and has some nice flavor.

The french fries aren’t my favorite. The Smashfries are a crispy fries that look great but then they add rosemary, olive oil, garlic and other herbs so it’s not really french fries, they are Smashfries….I guess. I wasn’t a big fan but some of the friends I ate with absolutely loved them. I guess it’s up for debate. The fry sauce was mediocre but that’s ok, they aren’t a Utah company. It’s a touch expensive but overall I’d recommend going to Smashburger at least once and the Beehive burger is easily recommended.

Smashburger is Coming To Utah in August 2009

The official Smashburger is coming to Utah announcement was reported today by ABC 4 news. With a goal of becoming Salt Lake City’s favorite burger this will be very exciting and their first two locations are going to be at 3513 South 2700 West in West Valley City and 2100 South 1028 East in Salt Lake City. Smashburger is delicious because of the “smashing” that happens when you order a burger. You pick a third pound or half pound of angus beef and they smash it, sear it on the grill to make your delicious Smashburger. The current closest location is in Denver.

In addition to their delicious Smashburgers they also have Smashfries, Smashchicken, Smashsalads and Smashdogs. They will also feature a Utah only menu which includes:

Beehive Smashburger.

Smashchicken made with Honey BBQ sauce, applewood smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and onion on an egg bun.

Grasshopper Mint shake made with Haagen Dazs ice cream (of course they’ll add a Grassopper shake:)

On behalf of all burger lovers I want to personally welcome Smashburger to Utah and say “Let the Smashing Begin!!” Here are the Smashburger details:
