BONDI RESCUE LIFEGUARDS TO MAKE A SPLASH AT THE BASTE’D BURGER POP-UP STORE OPENING AND BLACK TIE BURGER EATING CONTEST!

The founder of Oporto is bringing a new burger & bowl pop-up store to Sydney called Baste’d, and with it he brings back the iconic original, yes the original Grilled-Chilli Chicken Burger, called the Chilli Lifeguard!

Baste’d launches officially on the corner of Crown and Oxford street on Thursday the 30th of June at 11.30am where guests will be treated to juicy flavoursome burgers and bowls followed by delicious ice cream sliders (delete desert burgers), and the Bondi Rescue team will take part in a Black Tie burger eating contest, chowing down on the legendary Chilli Lifeguard and the delicious 12 hour slow cooked and sauce grilled wagyu beef Jo'Burger.

“Being a life guard means facing tough challenges every day, thankfully this burger eating competition will not just be tough, but also delicious.” Says Bondi Rescue's head lifeguard Bruce “Hoppo” Hopkins.

On the menu you’ll find: 

The Chilli Lifeguard, aka the ORIGINAL original chilli chicken burger by Oporto founder Gary Linz. Delicious marinated chicken tenderloin, crumbed, with mayo, cheddar cheese, cos lettuce and tomato on a semi- brioche sesame seed bun drizzled with Baste’d’s famous chilli sauce.

The Jo'Burger aka the South African sauce baste'd beef brisket burger, with 12 hour slow cooked wagyu beef brisket with slaw, shallots, caremelised onion, dill pickles, and cheddar cheese on a semi-brioche bun.

The Fun Guy vegetarian burger with oven roasted field mushrooms basted in homemade pesto mayo with shredded cheddar and house slaw, drizzled in balsamic reduction on a toasted semi-brioche bun.

The Porkin Gewd burger is packed with tender slow cooked pork shoulder, sauce-grilled in a homemade Louisiana sauce, with caramelised pineapple slaw, crispy onions, mayo, polski-pickles on a toasted semi-brioche bun.

Beef loaded fries, fries topped with basted slow cooked wagyu brisket with American Kraft cheese and secret chilli sauce, 

AND a range of fabulous meat & rice (or cauli-rice) bowls - slow cooked & sauce grilled beef or pork, marinated & grilled chicken, and grilled pesto-sauced mushrooms, and last but not least the marinated & grilled chicken salad bowl.

For desert, the Little Bombers - mouth-watering ice cream sliders! A mini toasted semi-brioche bun filled with melted chocolate, icecream and crushed Oreos. Yum!
