100 ways to celebrate National Burger Day



National Burger Month ends with a bang on Saturday with the "official" National Hamburger Day. Our bodies can't afford to celebrate every food holiday, but when it comes to an excuse to bite into a juicy, over-the-top burger, we're in — how can you not be with 100 options? We found tons of take across the country for inspiration, from sliders to triple-stacked to cheese-stuffed. Try the rapidly spreading ramen burger, a short rib patty or one of these chefs' special sauces. You'll find a few non-beef options in there, too.

Browse the gallery above for some of America's most indulgent, popular, overflowing or just plain good burgers from New York to LA and in major cities in between.

Ingredients

1 x 400 g tin of chickpeas
1 x 340 g tin of sweetcorn
½ a bunch of fresh coriander
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 lemon , zest of
3 heaped tablespoons plain flour , plus extra for dusting
sea salt
rapeseed oil
1 small round lettuce
2 large ripe tomatoes
tomato ketchup
4 wholemeal burger buns



Drain and place the chickpeas and sweetcorn into a food processor. Pick the coriander leaves, then add half to the processor along with all of the stalks. Add the spices, lemon zest, flour and a pinch of salt, then pulse until combined, but not smooth – you want to retain a bit of texture.

On a flour-dusted surface, divide and shape the mixture into four equally sized patties (roughly 2cm thick). Pop onto a tray and place in the fridge for around 30 minutes to firm up.

Heat a splash of oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for around 10 minutes, or until golden and cooked through, turning halfway.

Meanwhile, click off, wash and spin-dry four nice lettuce leaves, then finely slice the tomatoes horizontally.

Squeeze a large dollop of ketchup onto the base of each bun (toast them if you like), then top with the burgers. Layer over a couple of slices of tomato, a lettuce leaf, a few coriander leaves and finally the burger tops. Serve with a crisp, green salad, if you like.
