NADC Burger: The Viral Sensation with a Single-Item Menu<\/h1>\n

Turn off your brain and walk into NADC Burger on Dallas\u2019 McKinney Avenue. Here, you don\u2019t get to choose what\u2019s for lunch or dinner.<\/p>\n

The brand-new restaurant \u2014 a viral sensation when it appeared in some cities \u2014 has but one burger on the menu.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo one thing and do it the best you can,\u201d co-founder and co-owner Neen Williams said of the burger. A professional skateboarder, Williams opened the first NADC in Austin with chef Phillip Frankland Lee in 2021. NADC stands for Not A Damn Chance, Williams\u2019 catchphrase. <\/p>\n

The restaurant has grown to nine permanent locations, including one in Fort Worth, tucked inside a comedy club, plus one pop-up in Las Vegas. The new Dallas restaurant is bigger than some, but the CEO still handled the opening in a grassroots manner, spending a scant 21 days tearing out floors and painting walls in a former rundown bar in Uptown.<\/p>\n

What Makes NADC Burger Unique<\/h2>\n

While NADC\u2019s burger has a \u201cvery specific\u201d way it\u2019s built, customers can make changes, Williams said. But the co-owners don\u2019t recommend it.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery ingredient was put on the burger for a reason,\u201d Williams said. The team tried about 20 variations before landing on the right recipe.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have just one burger,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd it has to be perfect every time.\u201d <\/p>\n

The Perfect Burger<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s build their $16 burger.<\/p>\n

Each NADC Burger is made with two Wagyu beef patties. They’re not technically smashburgers, CEO Gavin Humes said, because they’re not so thin to get a “lacy” edge.<\/p>\n

Each flattened patty is seasoned with Neen Williams’ “OG steak” spice blend.<\/p>\n

The Secret to a Perfect Burger<\/h4>\n

Next come the diced yellow onions, which are pressed into each NADC Burger patty, then flipped over so the onions can steam from underneath.<\/p>\n

Adding the Final Touches<\/h5>\n

Say cheese! Each beef patty is topped with a Kraft American single. “The best,” said NADC Burger co-founder Neen Williams.<\/p>\n
