The Glory of Wood Burning Grilling

by Leave a Comment

Burgers filled with flavor and grilled to deliciousness. These are the highlights that people rave about when they take that first bite.

It would be hard not rave about but the real magic behind our menu items is burning. We don’t mean charred (unless you like it that way). We mean a large wood burning grill with space for burgers, veggies, and more. Over 80% of our menu, including the asparagus is wood grilled over oak and hickory. So we turn up the heat to continue to deliver tasty, flavorful Dogfish favorites every day.


Wood burning is an art or so we like to think. To deliver the right flavors and cooked perfection, the grill requires skills when manned. Too much flame will burn the outside of the food without properly cooking the inside. Placing food on the grill before it is ready will not give that wood grilled taste.

Whether it is our Alehouse BBQ burger grilled to perfection and basted with BBQ or the Burger of the Week delivering a world of new burger satisfaction, our wood grill burgers pair best with made from scratch beach fries. We dare you to give our beefy goodness and toasted buns a try.

4 Reasons You Have to Get a Burger at Dogfish

by Leave a Comment

Big Popper BurgerSometimes you get a craving for a big, juicy burger, and nothing else will do. (And by “sometimes,” we mean “all the time.”)

The next time you start salivating at the idea of a perfectly cooked burger with all your favorite fixins, head over to Dogfish Head Alehouse as soon as possible. We’ve got you covered for both your burger and beer fix.

Still need some convincing? Here are a few reasons you’ve gotta try a burger at Dogfish Head Alehouse.

Bacon

It is a scientific fact that bacon makes everything better. Try our Applewood Smoked Bacon and Cheddar Burger – a half-pound of beef topped with applewood smoked bacon and cheddar cheese – or our Alehouse BBQ Burger – two four-ounce patties basted with BBQ sauce and covered with bacon, cheese and fried onion rings. Or get creative, and add extra bacon to any of our burgers for just $0.75.

Burger of the Week

If you are an adventurous eater and love to try new flavor combinations, the Dogfish Burger of the Week is right up your alley. Each of our three locations features a weekly inventive and crazy-delicious selection, such as the Sriracha Shrimp Burger (a half-pound patty with sriracha aioli, pepper jack cheese, shrimp and lettuce) or the Cowboy Burger (topped with jalapeños, cheddar, pico de gallo, buttermilk sour cream, lettuce and Santa Fe seasoning).

French Fries

What’s meat without potatoes? All of our burgers are served with a hearty helping of beach fries cut in house daily from premium winnemucca potatoes – which are cooked to crispy perfection and even better with ketchup, BBQ sauce or aioli.

Beer Pairings

An amazing burger deserves to be paired with an equally amazing beer. Pick your favorite brew – whether it’s an IPA, a stout or a pilsner – from our menu. Or if you’re having a hard time narrowing down your options, ask your server which beer complements the flavors in your burger.
