From one recipe to thousands of tables. 🧡

What started in a restaurant kitchen with a single recipe has grown into something we could have only dreamed of. Every newspaper feature, every retail shelf, every handshake, every conversation, and every customer has been part of the journey.

Still family owned. Still Indiana made. Still grateful.

Here’s to where we’ve been and everything that’s still ahead. 🥓

Smashburger night just got a MAJOR upgrade 🔥🍔

Our friend knocked this one out of the park with a whipped smoked cream cheese featuring Midwest Fresh Bacon Jam.

Smoked Cream Cheese
• 2 blocks cream cheese
• 1½–2 tbsp Midwest Fresh Bacon Jam
• 2 tbsp candied jalapeños
• Candied jalapeño BBQ rub

Directions

1. Place the cream cheese on a wire rack over a sheet pan. Season generously with the BBQ rub, then top with the Bacon Jam and candied jalapeños.
2. Preheat your smoker to 200°F. Smoke for 45–60 minutes.
3. While still warm, transfer the cream cheese to a mixing bowl and whip with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Refrigerate until chilled, then pile it high on your favorite smashburger.

Big thanks to for the recipe inspiration. Save this one for your next burger night. 🤝
