OUR MISSION
GRASSBURGER was born to change the great American experience of eating a burger and making it BETTER for you, the animals and the planet!
As a family with food allergies and desire to eat sustainably, we struggled finding a place to go out for burgers that we felt good about. We decided to create our own concept and hoped that other people would want it to! We were looking for 100% USA grass-fed beef raised sustainably and humanely, vegan burgers made from whole foods like black beans and gluten-free oats; simple clean food that works for everyone, tastes incredible and makes an impact!
WHY GRASS FED?
GRASS-FED cattle live a happy and active life on a 100% forage diet (as nature intended), living on fresh pastures free of herbicides, pesticides and artificial fertilizers. Our GRASS-FED cattle are never held in confinement, fed antibiotics, given synthetic growth hormones and are humanely certified. GRASS-FED beef is one of the healthiest protein sources on the planet, a rich source of Omega 3, Vitamin A, Vitamin E, CLA, B12, Zinc, Iron & Beta Carotene!
SMALL FOOTPRINT
BIG IMPACT
From the beginning, we’ve used only recycled and biodegradable packaging. We limit our footprint with regional beef sourcing and participation in a biofuel program. Our used fry oil is collected & converted to power vehicles (green power!) on the military base in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We feel pretty pumped to fuel with fries!
