Charbar Co. took on the world competition with its burger. Here’s how they ranked
Looking for a good burger? You can find one of the best in the world on Hilton Head Island, according to the judges at the World Burger Championship this past weekend.
Charbar Co. ranked 20th out of 38 contestants at the competition, which was held in Alabama. The restaurant took the state title earlier this year.
Nick Bergelt, CEO of Charbar Co., said the placement qualifies them to compete in the competition again.
“We will be going back next year to see if we can break into the Top 10, but we’ll be laser-focused on that No. 1 spot,” Bergelt said.
The Wine Jame Wagyu burger, which Charbar Co. entered in the competition, is now on the restaurant’s menu.
Earlier this year the Backyard Burger won People’s Choice Best Burger at the Charleston Bands, Burgers and Brews festival securing its spot in the national competition.
The restaurant placed in the top 16 at the 2014 World Burger Competition in Las Vegas.
Charbar is at 33 Office Park Road.
It is open from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays and 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sundays.
