Ballymaloe Foods are backing the competition this year with entry having opened to burger joints all across the land.

Holy Smoke have a donut burger that sounds unreal. Coqbull Limerick have a Six Stack Burger Challenge (six 8oz bacon bulls with fries – if you can do it under 10.32 mins, you’re a winner!)

If anything, it’s an encouragement to get out at the end of January and get into some good burgers.
