About

Taking cookouts to the Alps! Why haven't we tried this before? The Best German Burgers are packed with beef and pork for extra juicy, extra savory flavor with smokiness from the paprika infused throughout. The distinct mix of beef and pork, the specialty paprika, and the flattened meatball presentation pay homage to their German roots; and delicious roots they are! They're ready for buns, or to be served steak-like next to some roasted potatoes. The Best German Burgers are the best around!
