Less Prep = More Time to Celebrate with friends and family
Memorial Day is approaching so it’s time to dust off the grill and gather your friends and family for a festive backyard barbecue. As a grill master, you know that tasty burgers are a crowd-pleaser, but what happens when your guests have different flavor preferences? Fear not! Skip the time and mess of forming a ton of patties by hand. BUBBA burgers are box to bun in under 15 minutes, the convenience makes it easy so you can satisfy every taste bud without breaking a sweat. It’s as easy as taking them out of the freezer and throwing them on the grill! No thaw, no prep, no mess!
We’ll help you celebrate Memorial Day BUBBA style with a burger party that promises something for everyone, without the time-consuming prep work and mess. Here’s how:
Step 1: Plan Accordingly – Pick Your Burger Varieties!
Whether you’re having an intimate gathering or a large party, it’s inevitable that people want options. Once you know who’s coming and have an idea of their burger preferences, it’s time to stock up on everyone’s favorite BUBBAs. As you’ll see below, you’ll soon become everyone’s favorite grillmaster. This means you should plan on people coming back for more. With 13 beef, 3 turkey, and 3 veggie, and even chicken varieties to choose from, be sure to grab a box of BUBBA burgers to keep everyone at the BBQ satisfied.
Step 2: Cooked Quickly and to Perfection, Become Everyone’s Favorite Grillmaster
Now that you’ve saved a ton of time not having to prep tons of burger patties and clean up messes in-between and after, you can focus on the fun part: Becoming a true BUBBA grillmaster.
BUBBA makes it easy and convenient to cook a variety of different types of burgers on the same grill and at the same time, so everyone can enjoy their meal together this holiday.
Pro tip: Beef, turkey, and veggie BUBBA burgers have slightly different cook times. Be sure to place each type of burger on separate areas of your grill so you can easily flip them when they’re ready.
Cook your BUBBA burgers for 4-6 minutes on each side or until they reach the internal temperatures below:
- Beef BUBBA burger internal temperature: 160°F
- Turkey BUBBA burger internal temperature: 165°F
- Veggie BUBBA burger internal temperature: 165°F

Step 3: Sun’s Out Buns Out
High quality burger patties like BUBBA deserve the right bun to be eaten with! With a variety of burger options, plan to have some fun with different burger buns for your guests as well. The best buns for BUBBA burgers include the traditional sesame seed bun, ciabatta buns, thick-sliced sourdough bread, brioche buns, and pretzel buns.
If this year’s Memorial Day cookout is more of brunch, you could even try biscuits, bagels or even waffles!
Pro tip: Butter the inside of your buns and grill for 1-2 minutes before serving. Check out this BUBBA burger Cowboy Butter Sauce that is *chefs kiss* You’re welcome.
Step 4: Set Up a Topping Bar
Time to add some extra flavor and flair to your backyard burgers! Set up a spread with everyone’s favorite burger toppings so your guests can personalize their favorite BUBBA burger exactly how they want it. Be sure to include the classics like:
• Ketchup
• Mustard
• Pickles
• BBQ sauce
• Hot sauce
• Various cheeses (pre-sliced to keep things convenient)
• Onions
• Lettuce
• Tomato
And get creative with some out-of-the-box burger toppings like:
• Sliced radish
• Honey
• Crumbled cheeses (still convenient!)
• Avocado (sorry, you’ll need to do some slicing)
• Fried eggs (if you have a flat top outside, just crack ‘em next to the burgers!)
• Coleslaw
• Bacon
• Jalapeños
Step 5: Party Planning Extras
With the hours BUBBA saves you on food prep, you’ll have time to decorate for the Memorial Day theme! Grab some patriotic paper plates, napkins, table clothes, and plastic cups and cutlery to save even more time on your post-party cleanup. Add some red, white and blue streamers to the backyard and grab some American flag toothpicks to top off all your different BUBBA burgers.
Be sure to include some fun outdoor activities to keep the kids busy – grab some sidewalk chalk, a festive piñata, and bubble wands. Memorial Day is always a hot one, so don’t forget to grab some things to help everyone cool off – fill up some water balloons, pick up a slip ‘n slide for everyone at the cookout to enjoy!
