Margaritaville University: One Particular Peninsula Burger

Last month the Margaritaville University college ambassadors were challenged to submit their best burger recipe. A hungry panel of Margaritaville judges chose 5 winners to be featured on Margaritaville.com.

Meet Tyler!

Hometown: West Hartford, CT

College: Senior at University of Connecticut (UConn)

Best Thing About Being Part of Margaritaville University: I really love being able to tell people all about Jimmy Buffett and the different brands of Margaritaville. Everyone knows the song, but they are always surprised when they hear how much Margaritaville has to offer.

Inspiration for your recipe: I’m a big fan of burgers and Italian food, so I thought why not combine the two!

If you could enjoy my burger anywhere in the world it would be: Probably on the Mediterranean Sea by the water listening to Jimmy Buffett.

Favorite Jimmy Buffett Song: “I Will Play For Gumbo”

In the mood for Italian? A burger? Why choose! Here’s how to make Tyler’s One Particular Peninsula Burger
