As a New York-based company, we had to give a true New York classic the Spare treatment 🗽 A Reuben gets transformed into a burger (or is it a burger transformed into a Reuben? 🤔), with that perfect mix of salty, sour, creamy, and crunchy. A little bit of everything we love.

To make it yourself, you’ll need:
•Spare Burger
•Pastrami
•Swiss cheese
•Sauerkraut
•Russian dressing
•Rye bread
•Dill pickles

Give this one a try, and if you make your own Spare-inspired burger, tag us 🔥🔥🔥

Yesterday was National Taco Day, we had one very important question: what if the taco were a cheeseburger? 🌮

So we took Spare Ground, loaded it up with melty cheese and all the usual burger fixings, then folded the whole thing into a tortilla. Taco? Burger? We’re not here to choose sides. Give it a try for yourself!

We’re not sure how we haven’t come up with this one yet… the Burger Parmigiana 🍅

We took everything we love about classic Chicken Parm and gave it a Spare Burger spin. A juicy Spare patty topped with marinara, fresh basil, and plenty of melty mozzarella and parm, all toasted until golden and bubbly.

Rich, saucy, cheesy, and with a little extra veg built right into the burger. Honestly, we’re wondering what took us so long. Rethink your burger next time you turn on the grill 🍔

A Lebanese street food staple that might just become your new favorite handheld sando đź‘€

Seasoned meat gets tucked into pita, then grilled or pan-fried until the outside is golden and crispy. It’s part sandwich, part burger, part kofta, and completely delicious.

We made ours with Spare Ground, which cuts down on prep time since the veggies are already mixed in, then seasoned it with some of our fave spices like cumin, sumac, cayenne, cinnamon, and, of course, a double hit of fresh parsley and mint. Serve them hot with a cool, creamy tahini or labneh dip, and you’ve got dinner.

Save this one for your next cooking night 👨‍🍳

Looking for an end of Summer burger that feels a little lighter and fresher? 🍅🌿

Our Caprese burger brings together fresh basil, heirloom tomatoes, mozzarella, pesto mayo, and a perfectly toasted sourdough bun for a burger that we’d happily eat any time of year.

We’re always playing around in the Spare kitchen, finding new ways to make a burger a little more interesting. So, consider this your sign to switch up your next one with a little inspo from Spare! 🤗

We’re always on the hunt for new ways to use Spare Beef! So when we came across Zainab Shah’s Beef Chops recipe in the The New York Times, we knew we had to try it with Spare Ground.

Also known as potato chops, these crispy, golden mashed potato patties with a spiced beef filling have roots in Christian communities across India, Pakistan, and Iraq. They also happen to be seriously addictive — crispy fried mashed potatoes stuffed with spicy ground beef… YES!

What is a great recipe to begin with (🙏 Zainab) got a whole lot better. A little inspiration from around the world, a little Spare in the kitchen, and a whole lot of flavor. What’s not to love 🤤

It’s been a busy few weeks at Spare.

From campus dining halls to culinary collaborations, we’ve been spending a lot of time on the road working with chefs, meeting new partners, and bringing better beef to more tables.

Here’s a quick look at what we’ve been cooking up lately →

Last week, we teamed up with Princeton Dining to inspire the team and bring a lineup of new Spare recipes to campus 🍔

Working alongside their chefs, we spent the day testing global menu concepts, sharing ideas, and exploring new ways to bring better beef to the dining hall. Huge thanks to the Princeton Dining team for welcoming us into the kitchen. Can’t wait to see which dishes earn a spot on next year’s menu 👀

There are a lot of ways to make a burger. We like ours juicy, flavor-packed, loaded with real ingredients (grass-fed beef + veggies), and made with a little more intention.

Happy National Hamburger Day from Spare 🍔

A few weeks ago, we headed to University of Massachusetts Amherst to share Spare Burger and Spare Beef with students on campus 🍔🥕

Considering is home to the #1 ranked college dining program in the country, we knew expectations would be high. So hearing students talk about how much they enjoyed Spare? We’ll definitely take that as high praise!

Big thanks to the team for having us out. More campus stops to come ⚡
