If you’re looking for inspiration, be sure to check out the site’s “Burgerbase,” the World's Largest Burger Database!  It houses over 5,000 mouthwatering burger recipes submitted over the years by contestants just like you.  Whether you want to search for burgers that use your favorite ingredients or find just the right wine pairing for your favorite burger, the easy to navigate database has it all.

Want to see if your burger has what it takes to make it to the finale in Napa? Why not host your very own Great Burger Debate ’08.  Invite your friends and neighbors to join in on the fun .  Sharpen your skills by hosting an informal competition in your own back yard and ask the attendees to vote for the best burger.

Here are some tips from Colavita to help you
Build a Better Burger…

A word of caution:  to prevent fires from flaring up, do not use Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil – or any other type of oil – directly over the grill.  Brush the grill racks with oil only when the grill is unlit, never brush the racks of a lit grill.
