To celebrate EatLafayette™ taking place June 16 - September 1 we will be featuring one of the more than 80 participating restaurants each week on our blog. This week we are featuring Burgersmith.

In the olden days when you wanted something hand crafted you went straight to the source. Burgersmith, a play on the word blacksmith, takes the concept of hand crafted and applies it to the concept of a burger. But this isn't your run of the mill burger joint. Owner Russ Umbricht went through more than 30 blends of beef to find just the right kind that could stand on its own. Then there are the toppings. Burgersmith offers more than 20 toppings you can choose from, all cut fresh daily and sourced as locally as possible.

 
While Burgersmith is all about the beef, they are quickly becoming known for their delicious french fries. They have four flavors to choose from including Smith Style, Butter & Garlic, Regular and Sweet Potato. The process for the French fries is as rigorous as their beef. They start with whole potatoes that are hand cut and soaked in ice water for a day before being blanched in the cooler for another 24 hours. The final stage is a quick flash fry straight out the cooler to give it a crispy outside while stay soft in the center.

At Burgersmith you will find a casual dining atmosphere with full table service perfect for a business meeting, date or a meal with the family combined with a higher quality hamburger concept that uses natural ingredients and local offerings.

Burgersmith is located near Kaliste Saloom at 1314 Camellia Boulevard. They are open Monday through Saturday 11 a.m. - 10 p.m. and Sundays 11 a.m. - 9 p.m.
