Dab's Smash Burger with Secret Sauce

grill-seasoned ground beef with the works - tomato, cheddar cheese & diced onions

We don’t know about you, but the number one food that we crave after a long trip in the backcountry is a good-ole hamburger.

With that in mind, we designed a ¼-lb seasoned burger wrap that's lightweight, uses only 3oz of water to rehydrate and tastes amazing! Featuring "the works" [cheddar cheese, ripe red tomatoes and sweet white onions] and our special "secret sauce" – you won't have to wait to savor the flavor of a "burger." 

Wrapped in a BYO-tortilla or enjoyed as a burger bowl, the Dab's is sure to satisfy those backcountry burger cravings!

UPDATE for long-time buyers of our All-American Works Burger, the Dab's is the latest and greatest version of our classic trail burger! Now featuring a larger serving size, higher calories, less sodium and more fiber and micronutrients (thanks lentils!), the Dab's has it all!
In our fight against micro-trash, we've mixed "the works" directly into the burger resulting in less mess and smaller footprint. And amping up our own powdered "secret sauce" allowed us to achieve that classic burger flavor that everyone loves - without condiment packets. Prefer your burger with extra ketchup or mustard? Go ahead and add on those condiments for free!

Why wait until after the trip to get that burger you're craving? "This actually tastes like it came off the grill," says one tester. The meat is a little crumbly but not dry; wrap it in a tortilla (BYO) with ketchup, mayo, mustard and relish (included in separate packets, so yes, you can have it your way). Testers also really liked this company's deli-style Roast Beef Wrap.

frequently asked questions

What is Gluten Conscious?
 
Gluten Conscious is a term we use to describe a product that is prepared with gluten free ingredients; however, it is not prepared in a gluten-free environment. While we are careful to avoid cross-contamination, it is possible that trace amounts of gluten may be present due to the use of gluten in our facility.
Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
 

We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

    I consistently find myself craving hamburgers while I hike. Usually this means I am thinking about where to get one on the drive home. Now I can have it on the trail. The simplicity of it is what makes it great, and very little water needed. I tried this on a whim, and as soon as got home I ordered more. One suggestion for the users, grab a couple of extra mustard packets to take with you it only comes with one. Everyone on the trip was jealous of how happy I was with my dinner.

    This is my favorite and I've found it to be versatile. The first time I used it as instructed (with tortillas), but, I've also added the meat crumbles to mashed potatoes and rice sides and it works.

    Why wait until after the trip to get that burger you're craving? "This actually tastes like it came off the grill," says one tester. The meat is a little crumbly but not dry; wrap it in a tortilla (BYO) with ketchup, mayo, mustard and relish (included in separate packets, so yes, you can have it your way). Testers also really liked this company's deli-style Roast Beef Wrap.

    frequently asked questions

    What is Gluten Conscious?
     
    Gluten Conscious is a term we use to describe a product that is prepared with gluten free ingredients; however, it is not prepared in a gluten-free environment. While we are careful to avoid cross-contamination, it is possible that trace amounts of gluten may be present due to the use of gluten in our facility.
    Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
     

    We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

      I consistently find myself craving hamburgers while I hike. Usually this means I am thinking about where to get one on the drive home. Now I can have it on the trail. The simplicity of it is what makes it great, and very little water needed. I tried this on a whim, and as soon as got home I ordered more. One suggestion for the users, grab a couple of extra mustard packets to take with you it only comes with one. Everyone on the trip was jealous of how happy I was with my dinner.

      This is my favorite and I've found it to be versatile. The first time I used it as instructed (with tortillas), but, I've also added the meat crumbles to mashed potatoes and rice sides and it works.
