Slater’s 50/50 was founded in 2009 in Anaheim Hills, California by Scott Slater, a SoCal native with a passion for burgers, bacon and craft beer and a disdain for the boring. Inspired by the belief that bacon is meat candy, Scott created the original 50/50 patty– made of 50% ground bacon and 50% ground beef – which now has evolved to include an array of inconceivably “slaterized” items packed with award-winning burgers, loaded flatbreads, over-the-top salads, amped-up milkshakes, tons of beers on tap, and some healthy options, too.
The ‘rebel gastropub’ has won numerous “Best Of” awards and been recognized by various local, regional, and national media outlets including People, Food & Wine, Foodbeast, Huffington Post, and The Howard Stern Show. Slater’s 50/50 currently operates 11 full-service restaurants in California, Nevada, Texas, and Hawaii.
