Why Our Beef Makes the Burger
Quality has always come first for us — before the menu, before the name, before we ever smashed a single patty. We asked ourselves a simple question: what would fast food look like if we did it right? The answer started with better beef. Fresh, never frozen. Ground in-house every day. All-natural, no added hormones or antibiotics. Because great flavor doesn’t come from cutting corners — it comes from doing things the right way, every time.
Fresh. Never Frozen. And Ground In-House.
We don’t take shortcuts when it comes to quality. Freezing beef might make things easier for most restaurants, but it damages the meat’s natural texture and flavor. Ice crystals form inside the muscle fibers, leading to dryness and a dull taste once cooked.
By keeping our beef fresh from start to finish, we preserve its juiciness, tenderness, and rich, natural flavor. Grinding in-house daily gives us total control over the process — from fat ratio and grind size to temperature and freshness — so every patty that hits the griddle is as good as it gets.
The result? A burger that’s bursting with flavor, perfectly juicy, and naturally craveable.
The Blend: Brisket + Chuck Roll
We don’t just use any beef — we use a blend of brisket and chuck roll, chosen specifically for its balance of flavor and texture.
Brisket brings depth and richness — that classic, beefy flavor with a little extra character.
Chuck roll adds beautiful marbling and structure, helping the patty hold together when smashed on a hot griddle.
Together, they create the perfect smash: crispy, caramelized edges, a juicy center, and flavor that speaks for itself.
All-Natural, No Added Hormones or Antibiotics
Our beef is all-natural, with no added hormones or antibiotics — because better food starts with better sourcing.
This choice matters. It means cleaner meat, fewer unnecessary additives, and a commitment to ingredient integrity over convenience. It’s not about chasing trends; it’s about honoring the food we serve and the community we serve it to.
When you eat at Farm to Smash, you know exactly what’s on your plate — nothing fake, nothing hidden, just honest, high-quality beef.
Why It Matters
For Health
Fresh beef retains more nutrients — like iron, B vitamins, and healthy fats — than frozen or heavily processed alternatives. It also skips the chemical residues sometimes found in conventionally raised meat, aligning with a cleaner, more mindful way to eat.
For Flavor
When you bite into one of our burgers, you’ll taste the difference immediately. Fresh beef produces a brighter, bolder flavor and a juicier texture. That satisfying crisp edge, tender middle, and deep beefy taste? That’s what happens when your ingredients are handled with care — not convenience.
For the Community
By sourcing premium cuts and grinding in-house, we keep our process transparent and close to home. That means less mystery meat, more accountability, and more trust between us and our customers. We’re not just making burgers — we’re raising the bar for what better fast food can be.
A Promise of Transparency
We believe great food starts with honesty. That’s why we’re open about our sourcing, our process, and our standards. Every batch of beef is ground and handled with care, and every supplier we work with meets our strict expectations for quality and integrity.
Ask us anything — we’ll always be proud to tell you how it’s made.
Taste the Difference
We don’t take the easy route, and we never settle for “good enough.” We do this because we believe food should be clean, transparent, and made with care — not shortcuts.
So next time you bite into one of our burgers, take a moment to taste what sets it apart: the crisp edge, the juicy center, and the pure, honest flavor of better beef done right.
Better beef. Better burgers. That’s the Farm to Smash way.
