“Who has the Best New York Burger?”

Rome, NY (April 2023) –The New York Beef Council (NYBC) is again searching for who has the best burger in New York. NYBC is launching its annual “Best NY Burger” Competition on April 1st, 2023, with the grand prize winner announced on May 8th, 2023.   

For the 7th year in a row, the NYBC is seeking the “Best NY Burger”.  The “Best NY Burger” competition is designed to seek out and promote 100% beef burgers prepared in New York State restaurants. Fueled by the power of social media, Facebook users across the state, targeted through geographical advertising, are encouraged to submit nominations of traditional, multi-layer, or out-of-the-box, beef-centric burgers they’ve enjoyed while dining in New York.  

After a one-week nomination period, followed by a two-week voting period of the competition, the Top 10 vote-receiving restaurants will be notified and extended an invitation for their nominations! The Top 10 selected burgers will be hosted on the NYBC’s Facebook page and contest website for a voting period of one week. NYBC will tag the restaurants and encourage voting among consumers for their favorite burger! NYBC will then coordinate the top four people’s choice burger finalists for an in-person cook-off at Onondaga Community College, Syracuse, NY.  

Details about the contest, rules, and the voting form are available on the New York Beef Council contest website, https://bit.ly/BestNyBurger Burger lovers can also find a link to the online nomination form at the New York Beef Council Facebook page. The nomination period will close on April 8th at 11:59 PM.  

Restaurants can download a digital toolkit including promotional materials for the contest from NYBC’s website at https://www.nybeef.org/ to promote the contest to their customers. The promotional materials can be used in restaurants, online, or on social media.
