April 19, 2022 - 7:14 am
To celebrate NFL draft weekend, here are some burger selections, as only the Las Vegas Strip can do burgers.
Bazaar Meat in the Sahara Las Vegas is offering its first-ever burger, a 50-50 blend of Wagyu short rib and brisket, in the restaurant’s Bar Centro. Pub cheese, special sauce and shredded iceberg accompany the burger, $18.
Burger Barn, one of 18 vendors in Famous Food Street Eats at Resorts World Las Vegas, serves a Lucky Tiger Burger with teriyaki, kimchi, and spicy slaw made using tobanjan (chili soybean paste). The food hall is modeled after the hawker street stalls of Southeast Asia, $10.
At Gordon Ramsay Burger in Planet Hollywood Resort, fans can choose from eight burgers, including a Hell’s Kitchen version dressed with asadero cheese (a semisoft melter from northern Mexico), roasted jalapeno, avocado and roasted tomatoes, $17.99.
The Billionaire Burger at Holsteins Shakes and Buns in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas features foie gras, prime grade beef, port reduction, truffle aioli and a frazzle of frisee, $36. Only feeling millionaire-ish? The Gold Standard burger brings together aged goat milk cheddar, smoked bacon and tomato confit, $23.
With an OH burger at Old Homestead Steakhouse in Caesars Palace, a thick dry-aged patty is not enough. Heavens, no. It must be aided by cheddar, caramelized onions, foie gras butter and french fries cooked in duck fat, $39.95
The 2022 NFL draft runs April 28-30 at the NFL Draft Experience and Draft Theater, behind the High Roller observation wheel at The Linq Hotel.
