What else would be appropriate just days before all the Independence Day festivities but burgers and dogs.
Looks like Jake is a fan not only of the 'Burgh but BRGR. The BRGR food truck has been called to the set to provide burgers and fries. Pittsburgh Magazine had a tipster spill the word that the BRGR truck was called out to an undisclosed location where Southpaw was filming to help with late night cravings of the cast and crew.
Yes Jake went for the "junk" food, but you know with Jake that's really not junk.
BRGR was named one of the Best Restaurants in Pittsburgh has 3 locations (including PNC Park) as well as their food truck. Burger choices include dry-aged prime grass fed beef, turkey, salmon or black bean-corn falafel. The Button Buster, a beef burger topped with braised beef short ribs, white cheddar cheese, béarnaise sauce and crispy onions. Also a favorite their spiked handcrafted shakes — the salty caramel is combination of vanilla ice cream, bourbon, caramel sauce, sea salt and vanilla bean. Add some truffle fries and that's how junk goes gourmet.
But man does not live by burgers alone this week - what's the 4th without some dogs, and it's all going down in the 'burgh.
