It's finally Friday everyone and you know what that means. Tomorrow is a huge day at State Farm Arena and Burgers with Buck is here for you. Yeah we are. So if you're gonna go watch game four of the WNBA finals between the Dream and the Valkyries or the home opener for the Hawks against the Houston Rockets or both, Burgers with Buck has got your back. Burgers with Buck, We're back downtown at State Farm Arena. It must be basketball season because I'm hanging out with Chef G. How are you, man? I'm well, man. Good to see you again. Good to see you again, too. So, man, what a weekend you guys have coming on here at State Farm Arena. Let's see. You've got a game four of the WNBA playoffs. That's right. Clean things up, turn it around for game one or the home opener for the Hawks. You guys are going to be slammed and busy this weekend, aren't you? We're getting it done. It's a busy time. You know, both teams are playing really well. So, it's exciting for us to – that challenge of the dream during the day, flipping it for the boys at night. Talk about flipping it because I know the court, there's a lot of things that you see visually. But you guys are flipping it a little bit too menu-wise and what's available. Yeah, so for us, you know, the guys are starting very early in the morning, like preparing stuff, getting things seasoned. We'll cook right before the game, right? And once that's done, we'll literally flip everything out, seasoning everything for the boys, get that done. Everything will be set up by opening 7.30. We'll be ready to roll. All right, so one thing that's really cool is whether you're going to the Dream Game or whether you're going to the Hawks game or whether you're going to both, that's going to be available, right? That is the new Brisket Smash Stack Burger at $10.7. Buck, I'm excited for you to try it. It's absolutely amazing. Wait, is that again the Brisket? Stack Smash Burger. Brisket Stack Smash Burger. It's a mouthful. That's right. Literally and figuratively a mouthful, right? Absolutely. All right, build this for me. tell you how you put it together so i got the smash burger got the melted cheese got the 12 hour smoked brisket got the onion ring on the bun with a little homemade barbecue sauce that sounds delicious tell me about you know a new season new menus coming up with new ideas what's the inspiration behind this and how much do you enjoy kind of getting to come up with new things every year you know it's really great man because working with the levy guys we think about uh Atlanta first, right? What's true to Atlanta? Of course, this is a southern burger, right? We listen to the fans. We listen to the customers. Like, what do you want to see different? And then once we turn it out, we get to see you guys come in and try it. And that's the biggest satisfaction is making sure we do a job well, deliver it, right, let the fans enjoy it. That's my biggest satisfaction, too, is when I get to taste it. Absolutely. Before I do it, it won't wait much longer. Let's talk basketball. Obviously, the dream, no matter how this thing plays out, They've had a fantastic season. All right, Hawks, just kind of getting things going. What do you think is going to happen with this team?
