This month marks the second annual Best Memphis Burger Fest, which will be held September 22, 2013 at the Minglewood Hall on 1555 Madison Avenue. The festival will run all day long, from 10:30am to 6pm. The event will have live music, eating challenges for attendees and a variety of burger creations from some of the best local burger restaurants and chefs. Last year’s burger was a NY strip and short rib blended patty with a fried egg, avocado, and Benton’s bacon.

In addition to sampling burgers from around the Memphis area, there will be burger crowned BEST among them all, based on votes from the official event judges. While the Burger Fest is a free event, a $5 donation is appreciated at the entry, and it will benefit the Mid-South Spay & Neuter Services. The Memphis movers have learned there will be 27 teams competing this year for best burger, so come out and sample some of the best grilled goodness that he Mid-South has to offer. Vegetarian burgers will also be at the event, and a Best Veggie Burger category means the entries will be delicious as they vie for the top spot.
