Burger fans in Miami Beach may soon have another spot to add to their list. Big Joe Smash Burgers is planning a second city location at 1346 Washington Avenue.
This is according to a city filing this month. The business already operates at 6987 Collins Avenue in North Beach, where it has built its menu around smash burgers made with Certified Angus beef. The restaurant’s approach involves pressing the beef onto a hot cooking surface to create crisp edges while keeping the center juicy.
Big Joe’s menu goes beyond the traditional cheeseburger. Options include a bacon cheeseburger, an All American cheeseburger with lettuce and tomato, and a jalapeño cheeseburger topped with chipotle ranch. The restaurant also offers more unconventional combinations, including its Donut Cheeseburger, served on a glazed donut, and the Croissant Baby, which swaps a traditional bun for a croissant.
For bigger appetites, the OMFG burger stacks four beef patties with four strips of bacon, grilled onions, American cheese, pickles and the restaurant’s house sauce.
The menu also includes loaded fries, with options such as Joe’s Monster Fries and Jalapeño Monster Fries, which are topped with burger ingredients and house sauce. Sweet offerings include waffles with chocolate chips, strawberries and cream or Nutella and strawberries, along with a warm Nutella and strawberry brioche sandwich.
The city filing identifies the project as a food-service establishment with seating, although details about the new location’s size, layout and opening date have not yet been announced.
With an established location already serving Miami Beach, the Washington Avenue project will give Big Joe Smash Burgers another presence in the city as it continues to grow its footprint. For more information log on to the website.
