    1. FleurBurger 5000 at Fleur by Hubert Keller
    This burger is rich a black truffle-stuffed Kobe burger topped with foie gras served on a brioche truffle bun and garnished with chef Hubert Keller’s special sauce, which contains more truffles. A red wine reduction sauce is poured over the creation at the table and chef’s own version of mustards served on a separate plate with an assortment of lava salt, Hawaiian pink salt, Fleur de Sel and cracked black pepper along with potato wedges and an alfalfa sprout salad round out the presentation. The burger itself goes for $79 on the menu. It’s the wine that makes it $5,000. It comes served with a bottle of 1995 Chateau Petrus Bordeaux poured in Ichendorf Brunello stemware imported from Sweden. The menu touts this as the “ultimate burger and wine pairing.”
    Fleur is located at Mandalay Bay, 702.632.9400
  • 2. Mesa Burger at Mesa Grill
    It’s all about the spicy side of a burger at Bobby Flay’s Mesa Grill. This burger starts with 80 percent ground chuck and 20 percent fat for the perfect blend of flavor and prime meat. Then it’s topped with double cheddar cheese — that’s white and yellow varieties — grilled Vidalia onions in Sherry vinegar, sliced tomato, baby Romaine lettuce with a side of horseradish Dijon mustard all served on a homemade Kaiser roll. On the side, you get Southwestern fries topped with salt, Ancho Chile powder and chopped cilantro. And it’s only $19.

    3. KGB: Kerry’s Gourmet Burgers, A Burger & Vodka Bar
    One of Vegas’ newest outposts already makes the list. Kerry Simon’s win over Iron Chef Cat Cora with the ultimate burger on Food Network’s “Iron Chef America” inspired him to open this burger concept at Harrah’s. Simon uses responsibly raised, hormone and antibiotic-free meat and even offers organic selections such as all-natural beef, heritage turkey, free-range chicken, salmon, tuna or veggie. Try one of Simon’s favorite such as the Frenchie, with frisee, gruyere cheese and cornichon pickle; the Cali, with avocado, pea sprouts and orange marmalade; or the Surf & Turf with lobster tail, pencil asparagus and béarnaise sauce. You get your choice of cheeses, fresh vegetables and, for breakfast in the wee hours, even a fried egg. Top the burger off with a choice of fresh buns that are homemade daily. Comforting and savory sides include Simon’s signature Mac & Cheese, Sweet Potato Fries or Tots and Sea Salt French Fries.
    KGB: Kerry’s Gourmet Burgers is located at Harrah’s Las Vegas, 800.214.9110

    4. RM Burger at RM Seafood
    Yep, a seafood joint on a list about great burgers, but you have to taste this to believe it. Look for a burger made from house ground prime beef topped with a secret sauce from Chef Rick Moonen, cheddar cheese, pickles and fries. Keep in mind you can only find it on the lunch menu. It goes for $16.
