Smashburger to open first two Utah locations

July 8, 2009

SALT LAKE CITY — Smashburger is set to open its two Utah locations this August, the company has announced.

At Smashburger, diners choose either a one-third or half-pound ball of 100 percent Angus beef, which is smashed on a flat grill and seared to seal in juices.

A regional menu tailored to Utah residents' tastes will be featured in each restaurant. The signature items include:

Beehive Smashburger and Smashchicken made with Honey BBQ sauce, applewood smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and onion on an egg bun
Grasshopper Mint shake made with Haagen Dazs ice cream

Smashburger is currently scheduled to open 10 restaurants along the Wasatch Front area of Utah over the next few years. Another 30 to 60 openings are scheduled for this year nationwide.
