Sutter Home celebrated the 20th Anniversary of their Build a Better Burger event by having it take place in Miami Beach. One of the coolest things (other than the actual burgers) going on was the live Tweeting and posting of footage on Facebook as it happened. You could also follow everything that was going on through their blog. Most importantly, the winner of the Best Alternative Burger got $15,000 while the winner of the Best Beef Burger took home $100,000. While the weather was bad, it didn’t stop the show from going on. As the contestants presented their burgers to the panel of celebrity judges, they were interrogated I mean quizzed about them. The banter between them was pretty entertaining. Meanwhile, the spectators of the event got to vote for the People’s Choice award for Best Beef and Best Alternative Burger.
