OUR STORY
OUR STORY

How a passion for proper flame-grilled smash burgers came together in 2025 β€” starting as an event van idea and landing at Rodney Parade Stadium Grounds in Newport.

β˜… Driven By Flavor & Street Culture β˜…

TWO PILLARS. ONE VISION.

The Joint was built on a straightforward idea: pairing obsessed, scratch-made burger recipes with authentic hip-hop street culture.

Crafting The Burger Recipes

Every burger at The Joint starts with recipe trials crafted by Eughine's wife. She developed the 28-day aged beef smash ratios, signature Joint sauce, buttermilk fried chicken dredges, and house pickle marinades with zero compromises.
