National Burger Awards

Entries to the National Burger Awards 2025 are now closed. 

Chefs across the UK restaurant, food-to-go, hotel and pub and bar sectors have been invited to submit their very best signature burger recipes. 

Back for its 11th instalment and hot off the heels of the 10th-anniversary Champion of Champions event, the competition will showcase the most irresistible burger creations from all over the UK, with finalists facing off in a live cooking showdown in a bid to earn the sought-after National Burger of the Year crown.

The event will see competitors take part in a Signature Round, the winner of which will be chosen by a hand-picked panel of expert industry judges. They will also participate in a Technical challenge, requiring them to whip up the best burger from a selection of sponsor ingredients. Finalists must also construct the best Plant-Based burger in a round sponsored by Redefine Meat.
