Grilling season is year round in Colorado. At least in my opinion! Our grill is always ready to go no matter the weather! After weekly snow storms for the first two and half months of the year, the 70 degree forecast for the next several days is a wonderful change! So I will be getting my patio ready for the spring weather and the grill fired up. So lets take a look at the Best Burger Topping Ideas!

Stovetop Burgers
I am not a fan of stove top burgers. Personally, I would rather have them grilled or cooked under a broiler. I have also used and loved during the winter, a smokeless grill. It was very easy to use and clean! But everyone is different and you do what you love best!
Hamburger Toppings
I hope these hamburger toppings combinations make your mouth water! There really isn’t a burger we don’t absolutely LOVE! And there are definitely some crazy and unique combinations out there! But with grilling season just around the corner, I hope you get some new Burger Topping Ideas for this grilling season!
