SAN DIEGO, Nov. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/
-- Fuddruckers is passing foodies and fans the opportunity to
pick the Official Hamburger of the San Diego Chargers. Now
underway, the eight-week draft puts two chef-inspired burgers head
to head for the title.
Will it be The Lightning – a half-pound, bacon-infused patty
topped with cheddar cheese, BBQ pulled pork, onion rings and
smokehouse bacon – or Thunder – a half-pound American Kobe patty,
topped with pepper jack cheese, smokehouse bacon, grilled
jalapenos, onion rings and smokehouse sauce – that makes the
cut?
Diners will decide by a tally of burger sales and social media
photo shares using #fuddschargersburger. Track the competition

"We're thrilled to cheer on the Chargers and our new team
partnership," said Peter Tropoli,
Chief Operating Officer. "Nothing goes better with a game than
a hot, juicy, delicious Fuddruckers burger."
Since 1980, Fuddruckers has been obsessed with making the world
happier, one great hamburger at a time. Grilled-to-order
burgers feature always fresh and never frozen, 100% USDA
premium-cut beef with no fillers or additives. Delicious,
sesame-topped buns are baked from scratch on-site throughout the
day to achieve the perfect combination of crisp crust and
melt-in-your-mouth texture.
And while burgers are the signature, the engaging menu offers
variety for many tastes with an array of sandwiches, platters and
salads. No matter what they choose, customers can customize
their meal with a trip to the legendary Build Your Own produce bar,
which features fantastic fixings like sun-ripened tomatoes,
lettuce, sliced onions, dill pickles, pico de gallo and classic
cheese sauce.
