If you are in Vernon, BC, this October, you are probably aware of the buzz about the Brent Butt and Vernon Burger Challenge of 2024. The burger cook-off, now in its fourth year, features 12 of the best restaurants in town, all competing to create the ultimate burger.

And guess who is the celebrity judge? None other than Brent Butt, the beloved comedian behind the iconic Canadian sitcom, “Corner Gas.” Of course, the 58-year-old comedian will bring something humorous to the table!

For Butt, being a burger judge is not just a fun gig. It is a sweet dream come true. His role in the challenge is to select his top pick, which will win the prestigious “Brent’s Choice Award.” But the 2024 Golden Burger Challenge is more than just a culinary contest. It is also about supporting a great cause.

With $5 from every burger sold going to the North Okanagan Community Life Society (NOCLS), this competition is a delicious way to give back to the community.

What Is the Golden Burger Challenge?

The Golden Burger Challenge is a month-long celebration of burgers, creativity, and community spirit. Twelve restaurants from Vernon have crafted unique, mouthwatering burgers, each hoping to win over the public – and Brent Butt’s taste buds.

But this is not just about bragging rights. Each burger sold contributes $5 to NOCLS, a local organization that supports individuals with disabilities and their families. NOCLS has been a pillar in the community since 1984, providing personalized living arrangements, access to resources, and financial stability.

Thus, this year’s challenge is to help fund their newest project: A housing development in Vernon for families in need. Above all, Brent Butt and Vernon Burger Challenge is going to be fun to watch!
