Building the Perfect Bite: Different Types of Burger Buns

November 4, 2024

We all know that when it comes to burgers, the bun is just as important as what’s between them. It’s like a power couple—you can’t have one without the other. After all, the bun is what holds everything together, literally and figuratively. So, what types of burger buns are we working with? Let’s break it down.

1. The Classics

Let’s start with the tried and true: your standard, everyday burger bun. You’ve seen them before, they’re soft, squishy, and they do their job. They’re not here to steal the show but to support it. At Smash House, these buns wrap around our Single Smash like they were made for each other. Perfectly simple, totally satisfying. Pro Tip: Check out our Queen’s menu and get that Double Smash if you’re feeling hungry. Trust us, the bun can handle it.

2. Brioche Buns

Another type of burger bun? Brioche buns. They’re rich, buttery, and just a touch sweeter than your regular bun. These guys bring a bougie vibe to your burger. Their melt-in-your-mouth texture and hint of sweetness balance perfectly with savory toppings

3. Lettuce Wraps

Going gluten-free or just cutting carbs? Swap out the bun for crisp lettuce wraps. We don’t serve these, but don’t worry—our menu is still poppin’ with options like the Burger Salad. You get all the tasty goodness, minus the bun. It’s like a deconstructed burger, but way better.

Pro Tip: Ask for the Vegan Cheese option on your salad for some extra flavor.

Smash House Speciality: The Bun That Brings It All Together

Here’s the deal: at Smash House, we like to keep things classic but unforgettable. Our buns are the perfect canvas for what’s inside—that OG smash patty you know and love. The buns are soft but never soggy, strong but never overwhelming, and toasted just right. And yeah, we keep things kosher, so every bite’s legit.
