City hosts hunt for UK’s best burger

BURGER devotees are in for a treat this weekend with the chance to eat some of the juiciest and most delicious in the country.

Meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans will be able to tuck into burgers from award-winning vendors at Derby’s Bustler Market, which is hosting a competition celebrating the best in the UK.

The street food venue’s Patty Party will take place at the Chocolate Factory, in John Street, starting tonight from 5pm and running through to Sunday. Guest judges will be in attendance to taste and crown the UK’s best burger. The public will also be able to vote for their favourite.

As well as some top quality tucker there will be games and live DJs providing the entertainment throughout the weekend.

Eating competitions will see who can eat the most pickles in a minute, plus a race to see who can finish eight double cheeseburgers the quickest. Applications to take part can be emailed to georgia@bustlermarket. co.uk

Olivia Pritchard, Bustler Market’s managing director, said: “We cannot wait to welcome burger lovers to Bustler Market for what is sure to be a memorable event packed with food, expert judges, competitions and music. Tickets have been selling fast and the atmosphere is set to be buzzing across our afternoon and evening sessions.

“There will be something for everyone across the weekend and we’d urge everybody to book now to avoid missing out as Derby crowns the UK’s best burger.”
