The hottest thing on the menu, with heat in layers. Jalapeños and habaneros, pepper-jack, caramelised onions, a spicy salsa verde and chipotle aioli with lettuce and tomato. The habaneros bring real fire and the onions bring just enough sweetness to keep going. There is a veggie version too.

About Hopdoddy Burger Bar
Hopdoddy opened on South Congress Avenue in Austin, Texas, in 2010, and the name gives away the idea: hops, as in craft beer, and a “doddy”, an old Scottish word for a hornless cow. It was built as a burger bar for a city that takes both food and drink seriously, with beef ground in-house and buns baked daily.
Around 40 burger bars, most of them in Texas and the western US.
