(Des Moines)– Two northwest Iowa restaurants are among the Top Ten in the Iowa Beef Industry and Cattlemen’s Association’s “Best Burger in Iowa” competition. They include, in no certain order, Burger and Company in Spirit Lake and Birdies, Burgers and Brews at Hillcrest Golf & Country Club in Graettinger.
Nominations were submitted between February 13th and March 13th.
The number of votes each restaurant received determined the 2023 Top Ten restaurants.
The final phase in the quest for the 2023 Iowa’s Best Burger will now begin. All Top Ten restaurants will be visited by a panel of anonymous judges who will evaluate the burgers based on taste, appearance, and proper doneness. The judges’ scores and comments will be accumulated and the winner will be announced on May 1 to kick off May Beef Month.
