Squash The Beef: Habit Burger & Grill Hosts Reconciliation Burger Bash for In-N-Out Burger Fans

By: Habit Burger & Grill via GlobeNewswire

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a bold move that proves love of great burgers transcends rivalry, Habit Burger & Grill extended an olive branch (or should we say, a Double Char) to In-N-Out Burger fans this weekend in an unprecedented "Squash the Beef" celebration.

Habit's recent billboards congratulating In-N-Out Burger for their Double Double’s #2 ranking by USA Today's 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards* quickly ignited a social media firestorm. What was intended as playful competition sparked major beef, with fans exchanging heated comments about the perceived provocative marketing stunt. The cheeky congratulation rapidly devolved into a digital battleground of burger loyalties.

Realizing sometimes the best way to win is to bring people together, Habit invited fans from both burger camps to enjoy a complimentary feast - a free Double Charburger, crispy fries, and a refreshing drink.

In an open letter to In-N-Out fans published in the L.A. Times, Habit writes: “In times like these, it’s important to remember what brings us together—burgers. We were so excited that our Double Char was voted #1 in USA Today’s 10Best Reader’s Choice Awards*, that we wanted to celebrate. But perhaps our billboards congratulating you on the #2 spot were a bit excessive. Maybe we lost sight of what really matters—which is that the TWO best burgers in the country are both from right here in California… So we’re calling a truce.”

The event was emceed by an IHeartMedia DJ team and attended by 300 In-N-Out fans, Habit Burger fans, and local influencers, transforming a potential burger battle into a celebration of California's legendary burger culture.

"With all the love (and heated opinions) Californians have for In-N-Out Burger, we knew our billboards would ruffle a few feathers," said Jack Hinchliffe, CMO of Habit Burger & Grill. "We know that times are tense. So, we decided to spread some joy - by literally giving away burgers to start the healing... and the eating."

Because at the end of the day, there's enough room in the Golden State for two amazing burger experiences.
