"Mel's Butcher Box Burger Location: Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, Field Level, Taste of the City; Section 416 The crown jewel in Citi Field’s concessions stands is undoubtedly the selection of sandwiches and burgers from Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, which supplies some of the city’s best steakhouses with beef. Our favorite is the Mel’s Butcher Box Burger, with its two steaky patties, maple bourbon bacon jam, cheddar, and fried shallots. It’s big, heavy, and something we’d be more than happy to eat at a steakhouse alongside a few martinis, but works even better with a beer at the ballpark." - will hartman
