The Smashburger Carolina BBQ Burnt Ends Burger is a new addition to the brand's menu for summer 2023 that's ready to provide patrons with a decidedly flavorful option that merges several barbecue favorites.

The burger starts off with a Certified Angus beef patty that's cooked to perfection before being topped with burnt ends that have been slow cooked for eight-hours. The sandwich is then finished with pickles, aged cheddar cheese and a tangy, mustard-like Carolina-style BBQ sauce, all served on a Parker House Roll bun.

The Smashburger Carolina BBQ Burnt Ends Burger is priced at $11.99 and is freshly made-to-order to ensure optimal freshness for diners. The burger is only being offered for a limited to make it a summertime exclusive, but is at all of the brand's participating locations nationwide.
