Gastropub Staple
The Costela Burger is a popular item on gastropub menus, showcasing a more elevated take on the classic hamburger using high-quality ingredients and preparations.
Casual Dining

Premium Feature
The Costela Burger offers a rich and savory flavor profile, blending smoky, tender beef with creamy mayonnaise, melted cheese, and the sharp crunch of crispy onions.
The primary flavor comes from the 'costela desfiada,' or shredded ribs, which are typically smoked or slow-cooked for hours, resulting in incredibly tender and flavorful meat. The homemade mayonnaise adds a creamy tang, while the mozzarella provides a mild, melted cheese pull. The 'cebola crispy,' or crispy onions, offer a contrasting texture and a slightly sweet and savory element.
Premium Feature
Rib Selection
The quality of the ribs is paramount. Look for well-marbled beef ribs for maximum flavor and tenderness after slow cooking.
Homemade Mayonnaise
Using a homemade mayonnaise, perhaps with a touch of garlic or herbs, significantly elevates the burger compared to store-bought versions.
Crispy Onion Technique
Ensure the onions are thinly sliced and thoroughly dried before frying to achieve maximum crispiness. Consider lightly dusting them with flour or cornstarch before frying.
Bun Choice
A soft, slightly sweet brioche bun complements the savory flavors of the burger without overpowering it.
