It only takes a couple of minutes for you to help pick which restaurant in New York State will be able to claim the title of "Best Burger In New York State"

The New York Beef Council is holding its 9th annual "Best Burger" competition and now they need your votes to see who will take home the crown this year.

Will it be back-to-back wins for Chatham Brewing who took home the title of "Best Burger In New York" in 2024 with their "Loaded Brewery Burger". The burger was made with locally raised beef, white cheddar Mac and Cheese, applewood bacon, and molasses BBQ all served on a toasted sweet roll.

Will it be the Ale & Angus Pub in Syracuse who won the title in 2023 with their "Bacon Grilled Cheeseburger", or will it be one of the many newcomers who are part of the competition this year?

After nominations were closed earlier this year, there are currently 62 restaurants that you can vote for and they represent every corner of New York State. Voting will continue until April 11th and the Top 10 finalists will be announced.
