Hard Rock Cafe Denver, in the Denver Pavilions on the 16th Street Mall, pays homage to Denver Nuggets’ mascot Rocky with The Rocky Burger.
Created by Rocky himself, the burger is crafted with a brioche bun; two four-ounce burger patties, made of premium ground beef and brisket; two slices of pepper jack cheese; a fried egg; two strips of bacon and buttermilk fried onion strings.
The Rocky Burger is served with French fries and a housemade Skittles-infused tangy barbecue sauce for dunking, as Skittles are Rocky’s favorite snack.This burger will be available at Hard Rock Cafe Denver exclusively, for a limited time. A portion of the proceeds from the $13.95 burger will be donated to Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY.
“We are excited to partner with Rocky and the Denver Nuggets to support the Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY,” said Sean Finney, general manager of Hard Rock Cafe Denver. “The Rocky Burger, along with its special ‘dunking’ sauce, is not only delicious, but also a great way to support a very deserving cause.”
Rocky, who was dubbed The World’s Most Awesome Mascot in 2013, and inducted into the Mascot Hall of Fame in 2008, joins Colorado Mammoth’s John Grant Jr., Denver’s inaugural Celebrity Burger creator, in the new Hard Rock Cafe tradition. Each celebrity burger builder selects his or her favorite local charity, which receives a portion of proceeds from each burger sold.
Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY, a Kroenke Sports Charities signature community partner, utilizes sports and the power of youth leadership to change school climates into a welcoming and inclusive environment for all students.
