TICKETS GO ON SALE JULY 1, 2024.

The Green Chile Cheeseburger Smackdown has one simple goal: to determine the best green chile cheeseburger in New Mexico. We invite chefs to toss their spatulas in the ring and throw down the burger sure to beat them all. Thanks to our attendees and their iron stomachs, the Smackdown is one of New Mexico’s favorite annual foodie events and sells out every year!
2023 Battle of the Champs
In celebration of our tenth anniversary, we have invited seven past champions to compete for burger dominance in a spicy, beefy brawl. The smackdown began in Santa Fe in 2013 and the revelry has continued ever since.
