Lindon Reilly’s days of towering burgers are officially over and a new wave of craft burgers has taken the spotlight on Fourth Avenue. When local eaters first got a whiff of the new concept, their stomachs grumbled and growled like the transformation of a werewolf during a full moon.
We’re talking about the flavors and recipes at Thunder Bacon Burger Co. It’s been a year since its grand opening and now Reilly and the crew are ready to celebrate.
Thunder Bacon Burger Co. — the cool kids are calling it TBBC — is hosting a special burger and beer deal for its first anniversary from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. on Sunday, October 16.
However, the burger joint has been honoring its anniversary all week. A couple of new and limited t-shirts have been screen printed, which are available to purchase online, and gift cards are available as well.

Let’s talk about Sunday, though, because there’s a mighty fine deal happening.
On the tail end of the weekend, they’ll be serving up the 520 Burger for just $5.20. But wait, that’s not all. Make sure you wash it all down with one of the draft beers on tap for just $4 each.
Thunder Bacon Burger Co. is located at 621 N. Fourth Ave. For more information, visit thunderbaconburger.com or follow Thunder Bacon Burger Co. on Facebook.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
