Black Market Foods’ Hot Mess
Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | March 26, 2022
Few things scream spring in northern Michigan quite like the perfect roadside sandwich. For the best in mobile munchies, look no further than Charlevoix’s Black Market Foods. First opened as a food truck in 2021, the business expanded to a permanent storefront earlier this year, and its Hot Mess sandwich followed. A reimagined take on a traditional cheeseburger, this behemoth begins with a scratch-made bun, which chefs grill to golden-brown perfection. From there, each finished roll is filled with house-spiced ground beef and topped with American cheese and pickle chips. Finished with ketchup, mustard, and crispy onions, this $8 stack is sure to have you heading back for seconds. Complete with a Grandma’s Recipe chocolate chip cookie and your choice of chips and French onion dip or homemade coleslaw. Now, all this meal is missing is a picnic blanket. Enjoy yours at 311 Bridge Street in Downtown Charlevoix. (231) 437-3337. blackmarketchx.com
