Oakland Park’s smash burger sensation started as food truck pop-ups under the name Frankenfurters before evolving into one of South Florida’s most talked-about burger destinations.
Owner Jay Rok made waves at the inaugural 954 Burger Month event in 2024, and by November opened the brick-and-mortar location that now draws burger enthusiasts from across Broward County. Customers consistently call it “the best smash burger in South Florida” with some claiming it rivals any smash burger anywhere. 🍔

The industrial exterior with bold BMC logo sets the tone before you even walk through the side entrance. Inside, counter seating lets you watch the flat-top action while an arcade machine adds playful vibes to the compact space.
What truly sets BMC apart is the five house-made sauces—BMC, Spicy BMC, Roasted Garlic, Fry Sauce, and the legendary Curry Ketchup that food critics insist needs bottling and selling immediately.

The Patty Melt: Not By-the-Book But Absolutely Perfect
This signature creation features a double smash patty with BMC saus, roasted garlic sauce, Swiss cheese, American cheese, and grilled onions on marbled rye. The combination defies traditional patty melt rules but creates something arguably better than the original.
The Burger Beast himself declared it “perfect”, praising the beautiful crust on the smash patties and how the melted cheese blends with crispy grilled onions. Multiple reviewers call this their go-to order, with one describing it as “a really good buttery grilled cheese with that beef patty” earning a solid 9 out of 10 rating. The dual cheese action—Swiss for nuttiness, American for gooey texture—creates depth that single-cheese versions can’t touch. The marbled rye holds everything together while adding subtle sourness that cuts through the richness. 🧈
The K Dub: Spicy Perfection in Burger Form
This customer favorite represents the “K-dough combination between a spicy BMC burger and his regular BMC,” featuring pepper jack cheese, pickled jalapeños, spicy BMC saus, and house-made pickles on a toasted challah bun. The heat builds gradually rather than overwhelming, letting you appreciate the quality beef underneath.
Reviewers specifically name the K Dub as their top choice among BMC’s lineup, noting how the pickled jalapeños provide briny acidity that balances the pepper jack’s creaminess. The house-made pickles add extra crunch while the spicy BMC saus brings complexity beyond basic hot sauce heat. That toasted challah bun absorbs juices without falling apart, providing sweetness that complements the spicy elements beautifully. This burger proves Jay Rok understands flavor layering like few burger slingers do.
The Triple BMC: More is Definitely More
The classic BMC burger comes with house blend patty, grilled onions, house-made pickles, BMC saus, and American cheese on toasted challah—but ordering it as a triple takes things to another level. Customers rave about the triple version, claiming it “rivals any smash burger anywhere.”

The grilled onions get properly caramelized until they’re sweet and crispy, melding with the patties as they cook. That BMC saus—the original house sauce that started everything—provides the signature flavor profile that keeps people coming back. Reviews consistently mention the perfect crust on each patty, with that crispy crunch giving way to juicy, well-seasoned beef. At around $17 for a triple, it’s substantial enough to satisfy serious appetites while showcasing why BMC earned its reputation. 🔥
Atmosphere
The small establishment features counter seating where you can watch the action, plus a few tables inside and outside for those who prefer traditional seating. An arcade machine adds entertainment while you wait for your order, maintaining that casual neighborhood spot vibe.
The vibe consistently earns praise from reviewers who describe it as “fantastic” despite the limited space. Parking exists behind the building plus parallel spots across the street—worth knowing since it’s not immediately obvious. The industrial aesthetic fits the smash burger concept perfectly, keeping things no-frills so the food takes center stage. During peak hours expect crowds and possible waits, especially after word spread that this spot serves some of Broward County’s finest burgers.
