Everyone that has been to a TailgateJoe Jets tailgate party knows that I take the food I serve seriously, buying the best ingredients
possible and making much of the food from scratch myself. This is definitely not the cheapest way to do things, but it is how I do things. For the last 3 years I have been searching for the perfect burger for the parties, using multiple sources to try and find something I would be proud and excited to serve. I have finally found that source, Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors.
For those of you who don’t know, Pat LaFrieda is considered “New York’s Butcher.” They provide the best chefs in NYC with the best meat you can buy. He custom blends different cuts of beef to make some of the tastiest hamburgers ever served up in places like Shake Shack, BLT Burger, % Napkin Burger, and Minetta Tavern. LaFrieda will be providing TGJ with “bigger than 1/3lb” fresh patties made from a blend of chuck, short rib, and brisket.
