10. CRAIGIE ON MAIN
This 8-ounce patty is made from grass-fed short rib, brisket, and flap steak, with suet and bone marrow added to compensate for the leanness of the beef. Dehydrated miso lends a concentrated burst of umami. It goes on a house-made bun along with house-made mace ketchup, cheddar, celery roots, red wine vinegar pickles, and twice-cooked steak fries.
