Starting this week, they will be serving a new burger creation every day for a year. They are even having  promotions such as the chance to win $1000 for trying all 365!

Bonus Burger365 – Chewbacca

Here’s another burger that I created for Star Wars Remix.  In hindsight, I should have used a Boca Burger patty to create “Chew-Boca”. Oh well…

Once again, make sure you check out Star Wars Remix every Tuesday and Thursday, as they reveal the latest creations. Submit your own piece as well! ([])

New to the site? I created 365 other pieces of burger artwork as well.

Mickey Mouse Burger Press

Create your own Burger365 patties with this cutout.

From Betty’s Attic:

Turn your barbecue or party into a Disney® food fest! Place meat into mold and press down to produce Mickey-shaped patties! 

Use with any ground meat. Non-stick die-cast aluminum with wood handle; includes a bonus Mickey-shaped bun cutter!

Bonus Burger365 – Star Wars Jawas

Have you seen Star Wars Remix yet? This website celebrates the Star Wars universe by featuring non traditional “artwork”, similar to some of the things I was doing for Burger365. Anyone can submit a Star Wars themed piece by “remixing”  the world around them.

I was honored when Skull-A-Day‘s Noah Scalin asked me to submit a few pieces as part of the Star Wars Remix launch.  Of course I had to create some Bonus Burger365 pieces and came up with these “Jawa Burgers”.

Make sure you check out Star Wars Remix every Tuesday and Thursday, as they reveal the latest creations. You can also submit your own piece as well! ([])

(It’s not a burger, but I also created this Twist TIE Fighter for the site, which was inspired by the Twisty Ties Burger.)

Large Cheeseburger Cake

Connie C. sent in this photo of a large cheeseburger cake. Her friend’s wife made it for her husband’s birthday! Pretty massive! ([])

Juicy Lucy Hamburger Cupcakes

Found online by MayLynn, here is a great recipe for Juicy Lucy Hamburger Cupcakes!

From Rock Ur Party:

Ever had a Juicy Lucy?

We all know there’s nothing better than a burger.  Unless it’s a Juicy Lucy, which one-ups a regular burger as it is two patties stuffed with a hot gooey, cheesy center (Beware: That first bite can be dangerous!).  It sounds odd to the uninitiated, but the Juicy Lucy is truly a burger graduated to the proverbial next level.

So it’s easy to see then, how the new Fun-da-middle cupcakes, with their ingenious creamy filling, could take the Burger CUPCAKE to a completely new and previously unimagined realm.  The “Juicy Lucy” Burger Cupcake is everything that you would expect in its less-adorned bretheren – a faux “bun” studded with sesame seeds and a stylized application of various icings and colored coconut for visual tomfoolery.  The filling adds both the “juicy” and the “lucy”!  So let’s ask the question a different way – what could be more fun than a tiny burger cupcake?  A “Juicy Lucy” Burger Cupcake, that’s what!

Tanabata Hamburger

The Los Angeles Tanabata Festival was recently held down in Little Tokyo.

From Wikipedia:

Tanabata (七夕^?, meaning “Evening of the seventh”) is a Japanese star festival, originating from the Chinese Qixi Festival.^[1] It celebrates the meeting of the deities Orihime and Hikoboshi (represented by the stars Vega and Altair respectively).

While walking by, we came across this super cool Tanabata Hamburger decoration, which we were informed, was one of the winners.

Red Robin’s Kids Cookoff

Have you been to Red Robin recently?

Once again, Red Robin is featuring the recipe of a kid chef in restaurants nationwide as part of the 5^th annual Red Robin Kid’s Cook-Off. Twelve-year-old Donovan Duggins created the Mt. Vesuvius Burger (complete with bleu cheese, provolone, bacon and Donovan’s very own lava sauce), which will be available at all Red Robin restaurants from Tuesday, July 26 to Sunday, September 11.

For each Mt. Vesuvius Burger sold, 50 cents will go to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children® (NCMEC) to help keep kids safer. Red Robin has also selected the top 50 kid-created burger recipes to be featured in a free downloadable cookbook available at www.redrobin.com
