How Does Fresh Burger Make Some of Its Most Popular Items?
Fresh smash burgers, crispy Belgian-style fries, loaded poutine, and premium toppings are at the heart of our Fresh Burger menu. Each dish starts with quality ingredients and a preparation process designed to deliver a fresh, satisfying meal with every order.
But what actually goes into making these popular Fresh Burger menu items? This post showcases how we prepare some of our customer favourites, but be sure to stop by a Fresh Burger location near you to try them for yourself!
HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS SIGNATURE FRESHBURGER™
Every burger starts with 100% fresh, never-frozen Canadian Angus beef. We grind our beef daily to our specifications, with no added fillers or additives, and form patties into specific portions, depending on the burger.
When an order is placed for a Freshburger™, we place a sliced bun and a 4 oz burger patty on the grill. We smash our burger patties to achieve the crispy edges that our customers love. Before flipping, we season the burger with salt only to highlight that fresh, off-the-grill taste. From there, we add cheese until melted, and then it’s ready for toppings. We dress our burgers with lettuce, tomato, and Fresh Burger sauce, and pickles and onions are available upon request.
HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS DOUBLE FRESHBURGER™
Our double Freshburger™ follows the same cooking process as our single patty Freshburger™, but our team adds another 4 oz patty to the grill and stacks it to perfection.
Watch the double fresh being made over on our Instagram.
HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS PRIMEBURGER™
For a heartier burger, the Primeburger™ uses a 6 oz patty of Canadian Angus beef and comes with all the same toppings, giving it the same recognizable flavour profile.
We also have a Double Primeburger™, which combines two 6 oz patties for a total of 12 oz of beef. It is one of the more filling options on our menu but keeps the classic combo of toppings and sauce.
FRESH BURGER’S PREMIUM BURGER TOPPINGS
Our premium toppings take the Fresh Burger experience to the next level, so it’s no wonder they are a popular choice among customers. Each single or double Freshburger™ and Primeburger™ comes with your choice of premium toppings that you can add on, including:
- Bacon
- Caramelized onions
- Sautéed jalapeños
- Mushrooms
- Cheddar cheese
- Swiss cheese
- Provolone cheese
HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS MUSHROOM MELT
At Fresh Burger, our Mushroom Melt puts sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese front and center. We start with a 4 oz Angus beef patty, top it with sautéed mushrooms from the grill, and finish it with creamy Swiss cheese. Like our other burgers, we include our standard toppings and sauce.
The result is a burger with extra richness that stays true to our classic Fresh Burger style. See how we make it on our Instagram!
HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS BELGIAN-STYLE FRIES
Fresh Burger’s Belgian-style fries are the crispy sidekick to all our burgers and without a doubt is one of our most popular menu items. We start with Ontario-grown Kennebec potatoes, which we peel and hand-cut. After soaking them overnight, we cook them at a low temperature until they are tender. Finally, we finish them off at high heat when an order is placed to achieve the perfect crispiness.

HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS CHEESEBURGER POUTINE
When our customers want to kick their poutine up a notch, they turn to our cheeseburger poutine. We begin with our Belgian-style fries, which we top with real cheese curds and gravy. On top, we add a 4 oz fresh Canadian Angus beef patty and a layer of cheese.

Two worlds collide in this dish, bringing the familiar elements of a Fresh Burger cheeseburger alongside the salty, savoury favourite of our poutine. It’s no surprise it went viral!
HOW FRESH BURGER MAKES ITS SECRET MENU ITEM: CALI FRIES
If you know, you know! Our Cali Fries may be a “secret” menu item, but they’ve become a staple for many. We start with our Belgian-style fries and add caramelized onions, melted cheese, and Fresh Burger sauce. Heat lovers can add sautéed jalapeños for an extra kick.
