All-American Aardvark Burger

…wait. Never mind. Once you get a hit of our Aardvark Drunken Fry Sauce, this update to the basic burger of yesteryear will be your new go-to. Forever. And don’t forget those slabs of crispy, thick-cut bacon.
Aardvark Goat Cheese Stuffed Lamb Burger
If this isn’t a drool-worthy burger, we don’t know what is. Prepare for a creamy, cheesy explosion of fat and flavor, spiked with the heat of our classic Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce. All with the distinct and mellow flavor of lamb burger…just wow.
Oh, and it’s oh so perfectly messy. Wearing a bib while eating? Strongly encouraged.
Aardvark Slider Burgers
Because who doesn’t want to eat more than one burger in a sitting? No, that’s just us? It won’t be once you experience the taste of fresh-grilled sliders topped with Aardvark Habanero pickled onions.
This fiery pickled onion recipe is sooo easy to make, toss in the fridge, and put on just about everything that stands still long enough (sandwiches, salads, bagels, hotdogs, etc., etc.).
Smoky Chipotle Burger
This burger combines ground cumin, pepper jack cheese, and Secret Aardvark Smoky Chipotle-Hab Sauce for a deeply savory and delicious take on the classic American hamburger. Cumin powder gives this recipe a south-of-the-border flair (since it’s one of the main spices you’ll find in chili powder, it’s right at home with some habanero heat). Top with cilantro for the herby-green taste of summer.
Reaper Black Bean Veggie Burger
Burgers = meat? Who says?!
Get your nose out of the freezer case and check out this recipe for from-scratch veggie burgers. It’s super easy to make and so packed with Reaper Pepper heat. You might as well grab your king-of-the-home-made-veggie-burgers crown right now. Sweet onion, garlic and bell pepper combine with Reaper Hot Sauce for a sizzling, satisfying, and mouth-watering flavor experience.
Scorpion Kimchi Pork Burger
For an Asian-style variation on the traditional hamburger, look no further. We’ve subbed in ground pork instead of ground beef…and added garlic, red pepper, and two Secret Aardvark Sauces that go so well together for adding flavor and kick to Asian dishes: our Garlic Black Bean Sauce and Red Scorpion Fiery Sauce. Top with Kimchi and cilantro and enjoy all-new levels of tangy-savory-funky deliciousness.
