The 1st Butcher & the Burger has been serving up red meat love in Chicago since October of 2011. It’s helmed by Chef Al Sternweiler with Govind Armstrong in tow as a partner in the company. This fast casual Burger concept is very focused on quality. Besides growing their own Heritage Hogs (Ossabaws and Hammy Duroc crosses), raising their own Milk-Fed Chickens, and working exclusively with small family owned farms, the Boca location will feature Key West shrimp in their Shrimp Burger. So far, planned “Specials” include local Gator Burgers and other seasonal game.
Below is a “draft” menu and I’ll be honest, I’m not sure if I was supposed to keep it to myself. It’s a little late now to do something about it, so check it out:
