WHAT MAKES A BURGER A LOTA BURGER? WELL, YOU START WITH THE HIGHEST QUALITY INGREDIENTS & FINISH WITH A LOTA LOVE.

Expertly seasoned & seared Premium Angus Beef patties, tangy pickle slices, a perfect layer of mustard & fresh lettuce, onion & tomato all between two lightly toasted buns? Did I mention exclusively packaged, 100% Hatch Valley grown Green Chile that’s registered by the New Mexico Department of Agriculture? Quality ingredients: Check.

70 years of serving what National Geographic named “The World’s Best Green Chile Cheeseburger” across 80 locations & throughout New Mexico, Texas & Arizona? A LOTA Love: Check.

When the founding father of flavor & WWII Navy Veteran, Blake Chanslor, flipped the first LOTA Burger® in 1952, he gave birth to a New Mexico tradition. 70 years later, Blake’s is a cultural icon (I mean, have you seen me on AMC’s ‘Breaking Bad’? I’m a natural!) & synonymous with New Mexico cuisine.
