This week marks the fifth anniversary of Slater’s 50/50, one of the tastiest burger joints in a city full of ’em. July 26 is the big day, with the Clark County board of commissioners proclaiming it Slater’s 50/50 Day. All dine-in customers receiving a buy one, get one 50% off deal on its signature burger, an indulgent blend of beef and bacon. If you can’t make it to the Silverado Ranch location for the 3:30 p.m. presentation, you can still celebrate July 21-30 with $5 drafts from Slater’s extensive selection—you guessed it, there’s 50 of them.

The locally owned and operated gastropub concept has garnered national attention in its first five years, including mentions on The Howard Stern Show, in Food & Wine magazine and on the Netflix series Fresh, Fried & Crispy. But that half-bacon patty is more than just a gimmick; if you haven’t tried it yet, get ready for a very different, super-savory bite.

And it’s only the beginning. Slater’s is also known for over-the-top appetizers like the Porkapalooza bacon sampler ($17), ahi tuna poke nachos ($16) and pork belly sliders ($13-$16). Our advice: Split a burger and a side and save room for a Bacon Oreo Milkshake ($15), another crazy creative concoction you won’t find anywhere else.

SLATER’S 50/50 467 E. Silverado Ranch Blvd. #100, 702-766-5050; 7511 W. Lake Mead Blvd., 702-625-5050; slaters5050lasvegas.comDaily, 11 a.m.-10 p.m.
