The Green Chile Cheeseburger Smackdown has one simple goal: to determine the Best Burger in New Mexico. Sixteen restaurants from across the state compete for burger dominance in a spicy, beefy brawl. The smackdown began in Santa Fe in 2013 and the revelry has continued ever since. 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!
