Smashburger’s partnership with Denver based Icelantic ski’s marks the first of its kind for the 3 year old company.

“We are stoked to partner with another local Colorado company on a promotion of this scale,” says Sam Warren, Icelantic Skis Promotions Manager. “Winterfest is a great example of how two brands can work together to help each other grow. Besides, what goes better after a day on the slopes riding a pair of Icelantics than a Smashburger?”

At Smashburger, the secret is in the smash.  They start with 100-percent—fresh, never frozen, Certified Angus Beef and smash it on a 400 degree flat grill to sear in the juicy flavor. To further the “better burger” experience, they are served on a toasted artisan bun and topped with a selection of the freshest produce, real cheeses, and highest-quality condiments.

Smashburger is known for its delicious burgers, but customers can also enjoy a selection of tender marinated grilled or crispy chicken sandwiches, grilled and split hot dogs, and fresh tossed signature salads, along with a variety of irresistible sides including rosemary and garlic–seasoned Smashfries, fried pickles, Haystack Onions, and Veggie Frites (flash-fried  and seasoned asparagus spears, carrot sticks and green beans). The restaurant will also serve a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages including local beers, wine, hand-spun Häagen-Dazs shakes and IBC® root-beer floats in frosted mugs.
