Smashburger sources its ingredients from producers local to its stores, where possible.
Chicago-based locations serve burgers made with Sweet Baby Ray's barbecue sauce, while Tennessee burgers use Jack Daniel's BBQ sauce, Florida locations use barbecue sauce containing orange juice, New Orleans locations have a barbecue sauce containing Barq's syrup and Utah locations serve honey barbecue.
Telera rolls are used as buns in California restaurants, pretzel buns are served in Chicago restaurants, onion rolls in Minnesota restaurants and brioche in New York restaurants.

In 2012, the company launched a program to partner with regional craft beer breweries to serve local beers to pair with its burgers and sandwiches.
It promoted the new program with tasting events featuring bloggers and local media.
In this program, each burger on Smashburger's menu is paired with a specific beer from the brewer, which is then sold in restaurant locations in that area.
The partnerships caused a 30 to 50 percent increase in beer sales in stores, Ryan later said.
About 15 to 20 percent of all orders now include a beer order.
Among the breweries Smashburger partners with (as of 2016) are Deep Ellum Brewing Co. in Dallas, Summit Brewing Co. in Minneapolis, Sixpoint Brewery in New York, and Christian Moerlein Brewing Co. in Cincinnati.
