Five Guys highlights the breadth of crew skill and teamwork in new five-part series
Could burger prep make for gripping sport? Five Guys’ new five-part docuseries, On the Line: The World Burger Games, follows eight crew members from around the world as they compete in fast-paced potato, cheese, and burger-building challenges for the world title and a US$100,000 prize. The finale is hosted by Thursday Night Football’s Charissa Thompson.
The Five Guys Games started in 2013 as a Murrell family idea to celebrate hardworking Five Guys crew members. This year, the games drew participants from stores around the world competing in three core events: the potato race, cheese race, and dressing/QC (quality control) race—with each contest demanding a level-up on the precise skills that go into every Five Guys order.
