The Secret to a Perfect Pub Burger: How We Make Ours Stand Out at Bout Time Pub & Grub

Posted on by Elle-Blogs

At Bout Time Pub & Grub, we’ve got a passion for great food and even better company—and at the heart of that are our signature scratch-made burgers. There’s nothing quite like a burger that’s juicy, flavorful, and crafted with care. Let us take you into the Bout Time kitchen and reveal the foundation of bar food we want to eat—our perfect pub burger!

Quality Beef

The secret of every great burger starts with the beef. We’re proud to serve 100% fresh, high-quality beef for all our burgers. Each ground chuck burger is hand-formed to ensure maximum flavor and juiciness in every bite. We use a carefully selected blend of cuts that gives our burgers that signature juiciness and rich, beefy flavor—no fillers, no frozen patties—just pure, delicious beef that speaks for itself. Finally, our burgers are cooked to order for each guest, ensuring they are hot, fresh, and tasty. Our burgers are crispy on the outside but still juicy on the inside. Each patty is sizzling hot, locking in all the savory goodness without sacrificing flavor or texture.

The Bun: Soft, Toasted, and Ready to Hold the Goodness

A great burger deserves a great bun, and here at Bout Time, we believe in using the perfect balance of soft and sturdy. We serve our burgers on fresh, toasted buns that are just the right amount of fluffy without falling apart.

To make sure the bun stands up to all the savory juiciness of the burger, we lightly toast it, creating a perfect, golden crust. It’s just the right amount of crunch to hold everything together while still being soft enough to let all the flavors shine through.

Bold and Flavorful Toppings

What really sets our burgers apart are the toppings. Sure, you’ve got your standard lettuce, tomato, and onion—but we like to go above and beyond. At Bout Time Pub & Grub, we take pride in offering gourmet toppings that bring new layers of flavor to the table.

From crispy bacon to melted cheese varieties (think sharp cheddar, spicy pepperjack, or gooey Swiss), we’ve got the classics covered. But we also love to mix things up with bold additions like grilled onions, peppers, and mushrooms; sweet pineapple; fresh alfalfa sprouts; or tangy jalapeños, to name a few. And for those who like their burgers with a bit of extra oomph, we recommend adding a fried egg or our corned beef hash.

One of our favorites, and absolutely one of yours, is N.Y.O.B. This is your burger, your way. Start with a ground chuck patty with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and garlic mayo. Customize it however you like with any three toppings and additional toppings for $ 0.50 each. It’s a crowd favorite and guaranteed to hit the spot every time.

Perfect Pairings

A burger isn’t complete without the right sides and a cold brew, and we’re all about giving you options that enhance your burger experience. With our laid-back, friendly vibe, cold drinks on tap, and a welcoming staff, we’ve created the perfect setting to enjoy a burger with friends, family, or colleagues. We’ve taste-tested our best beer and burger pairings, so whatever you choose, we make sure it complements the bold flavors of the burger, making your meal a winner.

Pairing Beers with Our Signature Burgers: A Flavor Guide

Posted on by Dan Eckersley

By Heather King

It’s easy to taste why a juicy burger and a cold beer are a culinary match at Bout Time. But what happens when the right pairing of a perfectly poured pint of beer and a scratch-made burger elevates your dining experience to another level? 

Burger and Beer Pairings

When it comes to balancing flavors, Bout Time’s burgers and fresh toppings pair perfectly with the crisp, refreshing notes of beer, cutting through the richness for a balanced bite. And whether you’re into a hoppy IPA, a smooth lager, or a malty stout, there’s a beer to complement every burger flavor profile.

Of course, there’s nothing better than burgers and beer with friends while watching the game—and every location has more TVs than tables. It’s a classic combo that turns any meal into a great memory. Our guide helps you pick the perfect beer to match our signature burgers, whether you’re a craft beer connoisseur or just love a cold brew to complement your meal.

Cheeseburger Sliders + Pale Ale 

Nothing beats a classic; our cheeseburger sliders are best paired with a pale ale. The slightly hoppy flavor of the pale ale balances the richness of the cheese, while its crisp finish cuts through the juicy beef patty. Together, they create a timeless combination that’s simple yet satisfying. 

The Jalapeño Jack Burger + IPA 

If you like a bit of heat, our Jalapeño Jack Burger, loaded with fried jalapeños and pepper jack cheese, is a must-try. Pair it with an IPA to cool your palate without losing that fiery kick. The bitterness of the hops complements the spiciness, while the bright citrus notes add a refreshing touch to each bite. 

The Original Chubby Melt + Amber Ale 

For those who crave indulgence, the Original Chubby Melt—stacked with two Parmesan cheese-crusted grilled cheese sandwiches—is the ultimate pairing with an amber ale. The beer’s caramel maltiness amplifies the cheese, while its mild bitterness keeps every mouthful balanced and delicious. 

N.Y.O.B. Ingredient Match

If you’re into custom building your N.Y.O.B. burger, keep some of these tips in mind when ordering a beer to wash it down. 

Try a wheat beer if you like to pile on fresh veggies like avocado, grilled peppers, and alfalfa sprouts alongside lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Light and refreshing with hints of citrus or spice, wheat beers enhance the freshness and earthy flavors of vegetables without overpowering them. 

Blue cheese and grilled onions have intense flavors that call for a beer that can hold its own. Enter the Belgian Dubbel. Its fruity, malty sweetness helps balance the sharpness of the blue cheese, while its slight effervescence cleanses your palate between bites. 

All-Around Favorite Burger Beer

For those who are a bit indecisive, Kaden Severn, a bartender in Lehi, points to Bohemian Brewery’s crisp Czech Pilsner as an excellent choice to go with any of Bout Time’s burgers.
