Eat a Burger for a Good Cause this Month (and Feast On® too)!

Canada Beef has launched its Burger it Forward program which puts great burgers into your belly and dollars into local food banks.

Eat a Burger, Bank a Meal and Feast On®

During the month of February, you can feel good every time you eat a burger! From now until February 29th, Canada Beef will donate the equivalent of one meal to Food Banks Canada with each featured burger purchased from a participating restaurant.

This campaign is running across seven regions: Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, Irving Big Stop Restaurants nationwide and of course, Ontario.

The extra cool part? In Ontario, the map features 29 restaurants and not one, not two but ELEVEN of them are Feast On® certified.

Shall we take a look?

Southeastern Ontario Burgers

Behold the majesty of this tasty number from the folks at Otter Creek Kitchen!

Southeastern Ontario is represented strongly on the map with four Feast On® restaurants- three in Kingston and 1 in Picton.

In Kingston, Otter Creek Kitchen, who are known for their epic burgers are serving up  their staple Otter Creek Burger using beef from their own farm complete with carmelized onions (drool) and AquaTerra right on the water is serving up their house burger which boasts an Enright Cattle Co. ground brisket and chuck patty, burger sauce, aged Wilton Cheddar, Quinn’s bacon and more all on a house milk bun.

Also in Kingston, Harper’s Burger Bar is going hard with their Waffle You Waiting for Burger made with a Canadian beef patty, double cheddar, bacon, a sunny-side-up egg (!!), rosemary garlic aioli, Canadian maple syrup and powedered sugar. Get this though- it’s all served between two Belgian waffles.

Just down the road in Picton, the folks at Waring House are showcasing their County Burger topped with Canadian cheddar, maple syrup and more all on a brioche bun.
