Smashburger Doubles Down on Taste with a Streamlined Summer Lineup Built for Bold Flavor and Operational Excellence

Smashburger® Turns Up the Heat This Summer

Less noise. More flavor. That’s the move.

This summer, Smashburger® is bringing a tighter lineup built to hit harder. Two bold burgers. Two craveable shakes. All built with purpose. No filler. No shortcuts. Just real flavor that delivers.

We’re focused on what matters most: doing fewer things, better. That means cleaner execution in our restaurants and a better bite, every time.

What’s New (and Back)

Pickle Stack Smash
Big flavor. Everyday value.
Certified Angus Beef. Melted American cheese. Double layers of fresh dill pickles. Mustard. Mayo. All stacked on a butter-toasted bun.
It’s bold, punchy, and priced to show up anytime at $4.99 on our All?The?Time Menu.

Smoked Brisket Bacon Smash
A fan favorite that never lost its edge.
Certified Angus Beef smashed fresh on the grill. Aged cheddar. Hand-trimmed brisket, pit-smoked for 14 hours. Thick-cut applewood smoked bacon. Dill pickles. BBQ sauce.
Stacked on a butter-toasted Parker House roll. Deep, smoky, and worth the wait.

Chocolate Banana Chip Shake
Cool, smooth, and loaded.
Hand-spun with Häagen?Dazs® ice cream, real banana puree, chocolate sauce, and chocolatey chips.

Dark Cherry Chip Shake
Rich, sweet, and just a little indulgent.
Häagen?Dazs® ice cream blended with real dark cherries and chocolatey chips.

Why It Matters

We don’t chase trends. We cook what hits.

This lineup is built on what our guests actually crave. The return of the Smoked Brisket Bacon Smash proves it. The Pickle Stack Smash pushes into one of the biggest flavor trends right now. Both do the same job: deliver a bite that lives up to the name.

At Smashburger®, taste isn’t a talking point. It’s the whole game.

The Bigger Picture

This isn’t just a seasonal drop. It’s part of a sharper approach.

We’re simplifying our menu to move faster, stay consistent, and keep every visit dialed in. At the same time, we’re growing with intention, with new locations on the way in 2026 and continued focus on delivering a stronger guest experience across the board.

Because in the end, it’s simple:

We make bold food.
We do it right.
And we let the bite prove it.
