The Best Burgers in Phoenix, Arizona | Eater Phoenix
"Hours: Open daily from 11 a.m., with extended hours until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. There’s more than one burger at Fire at Will these days, but the original still reigns supreme — a classic burger made with certified Angus beef ground to specifications: 50 percent chuck, 25 percent brisket, 25 percent short rib. The result is an ultra-flavorful, juicy patty that really doesn’t need much adornment. Owner Dom Ruggiero puts it on a brioche bun baked by Noble and smeared with what he calls “fancy sauce” (a mixture of ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire, and the like), and mantles it with melting American cheese before piling on caramelized onions and pickles. It’s named the Hush Burger because Ruggiero’s customers at Hush Public House (his original restaurant, also in Scottsdale) begged him to put a burger on the menu. He offered it in limited numbers on Wednesday nights, but these days, the Hush Burger lives only at Fire at Will, where it’s permanently — and prominently — placed on the menu. Hot Tip: The Hush burger walks the line between posh and gloriously drippy." - McConnell Quinn
