We are incredibly proud to announce that Kennedys Craft Butchers Prime Angus Beef Burger has been crowned Best Burger in Ireland and Best Burger in Leinster at the prestigious Associated Craft Butchers of Ireland National Burger of the Year Competition 2026.
The competition, held at the Ashdown Park Hotel, celebrated the very best of Irish craft butchery, with burgers judged by an expert panel on taste, presentation, originality and overall appeal. Every entry was prepared and cooked under identical conditions by Head Chef Andrew O’Gorman and his culinary team, ensuring a completely fair judging process.
