January 08, 2016 –  The restaurant brokers are going “under the bun!" on their weekly radio show as they speak with national experts on burgers. We are exploring beyond the basic burger to understand why this iconic American food just keeps on growing. Fast casual leaders, fast food giants and great chefs keep delivering more twists on this all American Classic. Join us as we talk to those that can explain the public's fascination with and insatiable appetite for the burger.
 
We interviewed three guests who are the top experts on burgers. Learn about what makes a “better burger” and why eating burgers are a true experience. George Frangos, of Farm Burger explains the importance of farm to table and difference in taste between grass-fed and grain-feed beef.
 
These experts describe why fresh ingredients mean so much to capture the taste of the burger. These tactics keep their hungry customers coming back for more. Join the restaurant brokers when John Adbo asks us “Where do you place your cheese? On top or bottom of the patty?” Is this question really a conspiracy or is their scientific research that makes a true difference?
 
Listen in as our guests discuss what is the proper way to eat your burger? Listen to the entire restaurant radio show on GLN the Good Living Network next week, Monday at 2pm EST and Tuesday at 9PM EST.
