The District Double
Two patties, American cheese, house pickles and district sauce.
Gourmet burgers over open flame in Deep Ellum. Chuck and brisket ground in-house every morning, smashed to order, served loud.
Four things we refuse to shortcut, and one thing we refuse to close early.
Two patties, American cheese, house pickles and district sauce.
Chuck and brisket, broken down in-house before the doors open. Nothing arrives pre-ground and nothing sits.
Beer cheese, burnt ends, scallion and pickled onion.
Friday and Saturday, because Dallas is not finished at ten.
Burnt honey and sea salt, thick enough to bend the straw.
The griddle runs at 450 from open to close. Everything on it is seasoned, timed and turned by someone whose name you will learn.
Same owner, same six a.m. grind, same opinion about what counts as enough pickles.
“I have eaten a lot of burgers in this city. The District Double is the only one I plan my week around.”

A table for two, a tray for eight, or the whole block. Either way, the grill is already hot.
