Ever wonder how we make our veggie burgers? Our friends at Buzzfeed’s About to Eat did a deep dive to capture our creative process. This is the most in-depth coverage of Burgerlords behind the scenes, so check it out if you have ever been curious about how we make burgers out of plants!

Burgerlords is a Los Angeles restaurant making vegan burgers from 100% Plants.

Burgerlords Plant Based Vegan Burger

Burgerlords is a classic California-style burger joint, with one major difference: it’s completely vegan. Founder Frederick Guerrero and his team set out to create a burger patty made entirely in-house using only nuts, grains and vegetables inspired by the nostalgic garden-style burgers they grew up on. After years of research, taste testing and experimentation, they created the perfect recipe, and in 2020 the super-popular six-year-old restaurant — which had previously sold both vegan and non-vegan offerings — relaunched with a completely vegan menu.

At Burgerlords, it is important to us that we make our food from actual plants rather than using frozen products simply “based on plants.” We take great pride in the fact that nearly all of our food is made in-house. From our vegan patties to the 2,000 Island Sauce and beyond, our staff prepares our food from scratch utilizing the best ingredients available. We believe food tastes best when prepared by-hand in a real kitchen.
