Owner Angie Doyle shares what makes Burgersmith different and the special guests can enjoy during Burger Week.

Baton Rouge Burger Week is bringing together some of the area's favorite burger destinations, and Burgersmith is joining the celebration with a Bourbon BBQ Burger that showcases the restaurant's commitment to fresh ingredients and craftsmanship.

For owner Angie Doyle, what sets Burgersmith apart is its approach to making a burger. The restaurant draws inspiration from a time when people turned to neighborhood bakers, farmers, and butchers for quality ingredients and expertise.

Doyle believes that same appreciation for craftsmanship should apply to hamburgers.

Burgersmith brings together its signature blend of beef, spices, fresh vegetables, and buns to create what the restaurant calls a hand-forged, authentic burger. It's an approach that emphasizes quality ingredients and attention to detail.

What's on the Burger Week Menu?

For DIG Baton Rouge Burger Week, October 19–31, Burgersmith is featuring its Bourbon BBQ Burger.

The special includes Burgersmith's signature beef topped with lettuce, house-made pickles, onion, and bourbon BBQ sauce.

Guests can enjoy the burger alongside their choice of hand-cut fries, seasoned their way, and a drink.

The complete Burger Week special is $15 and available for dine-in only.

What Can Guests Expect?

According to Doyle, customers can look forward to a fresh, flavorful burger cooked to perfection and paired with the restaurant's signature hand-cut fries.

Whether you're already a Burgersmith regular or looking for another stop on your Burger Week lineup, the Bourbon BBQ Burger offers an opportunity to experience the craftsmanship behind one of Baton Rouge's familiar burger names.
