Left to Right: Daniel Chavez, Governor Bill Richardson, Mille Chavez
 

Daniel Chavez's story is inspired by his mother and father's ambition to provide delicious food and excellent service.  Badland's Burgers was given birth from Daniel's mother "Mille" when her famous "Chile Kicks on 66" was transformed into "Badlands Burgers" by her son Daniel.

Health problems threatened to close the family business known as "Chile Kicks on 66" when Daniel stepped in with the idea of taking over the family business and turn out the best hamburger shack in New Mexico.  With his talents for cooking and with the blessings of his mother and her love to teach Daniel the art of cooking, Daniel changed the name of the business and changed history for the little mining town of Grants, New Mexico.

Today Badlands Burgers is known for the best Green Chile Cheeseburger in the state of New Mexico.
