Long Island teen starts burger business where veterans eat for free, proceeds support military members: ‘Want to do the right thing’
Long Island high schooler Will Burrell teamed up with a local butcher shop in Mattituck to open a smashburgher stand. Burrell raised $1,500 while flipping burgers at the event for the pro-soldier Gary Sinise Foundation, which he now donates 10% of his Long Island proceeds to. The 18-year-old launched his palate-pleasing endeavor last winter at a dinner event at the high school he attends in Greenwich, Conn. He said his special mission was inspired by his time at a military-style boot camp in Vermont and bonded with many former service members, as well as Spartan Race creator Joe De Sena. It’s not always about what money you make or how popular you are,’ he said. “It’s that you want to do the right thing, always, never take shortcuts — and try and give back as much as possible.” He said he is only able to start a business thanks to the sacrifices veterans have made for the country.
He proudly serves those who serve.
A Long Island teen has started a smash burger business where veterans eat free, and a portion of its proceeds also goes to support current military members and their families.
“These veterans are sacrificing their lives so that we can put stuff together like this,” the burger-slinging soon-to-be high-school senior, Will Burrell, told The Post.

The teenager, owner of Will’s Smashburgers in Mattituck on the North Fork, said his special mission was inspired by his time at a military-style boot camp in Vermont.
His fans now include New York Islanders forward and Long Island native Kyle Palmeri, who brought his son to the store to eat and has since expressed interest in collaborating through the hockey player’s foundation, which also supports veteran causes.
“I wouldn’t be able to do any of this without the freedom that we have, and that’s because they’re putting their lives on the line,” Burrell said of active and veteran military members.
The self-starting youth is all about paying it forward from his dedicated corner inside Center Cuts Gourmet Butcher shop, where he personally smashes patties and leaves handwritten, positive messages such as “strive to inspire” on his customers’ brown bags.
“It’s not always about what money you make or how popular you are,” he said. “It’s that you want to do the right thing, always, never take shortcuts — and try and give back as much as possible.”

The young entrepreneur launched his palate-pleasing endeavor — which also offers merch such as patriotic American flag-printed T-shirts — last winter at a dinner event at the high school he attends in Greenwich, Conn. Burrell is from Long Island and lives there when not in school.
Burrell raised $1,500 while flipping burgers at the event for the pro-soldier Gary Sinise Foundation, which he now donates 10% of his Long Island proceeds to.
The high-schooler, 18, parlayed that initial success to cut a deal for a space in Center Cuts, where he had worked when younger.

“I was forming burger meat into patties, I was making sausages, all that stuff when I was younger,” Burrell said.
“I come from a family of cooking, and I’ve loved it since I was a little kid. My dad taught me lots about barbecuing.”
Burrell, who also runs food trucks at his Brunswick School’s athletic events, bought picnic tables for customers to eat on Center Cuts’ front lawn.
A smashing concept
The teen said he had an eye-opening moment about the military when he attended Camp Spartan in Vermont and bonded with many former service members, as well as Spartan Race creator Joe De Sena.
“I learned a lot there, especially through talking with the veterans,” he said.
“After talking to Joe on a hike up a mountain, after a long few days of burpees and hikes, my perspective completely changed. It’s so much better to just get the work done, take chances, take risks,” he said.
The lasting impact inspired Burrell, a family friend of several Green Berets, to strive for success and community impact, he said.
Will told The Post he is only able to start a business thanks to the sacrifices veterans have made for the country. Dennis A. Clark
His time in New England also became motivation for his plans to join an ROTC program in college and eventually pursue a career in the Army.
Until then, Burrell wants to keep making what the store calls the North Fork’s best smashburger, he said.
“You don’t want to smash it too thin. … You caramelize the onions, crisp them up and grill them so it cooks evenly and then flip it so it cooks in the fat,” he said.
“Then there’s the special sauce. It’s ketchup, mustard, Dijón, mayo and pickle juice for just a little tanginess. Then there’s the jam of bacon and onions — I love putting those together.”
Burrell also offers “The Green Beret” special for battle-tested eaters: a full-sized smash burger topped with lobster and warm butter.
“We put lobster on it because no one told us not to,” his menu advertises.
Rising through the ranks
As Burrell has become a smash hit in the local community — almost all his customers know him by name, and friends post fliers around Mattituck to spread the word — Will’s Smashburgers is already expanding.
He hosted significant events at the Barnyard in Hampton Bays, has one planned for Macari Vineyard in August and is already earning celebrity clientele such as Palmeri.
“I’m super grateful for our veterans,” Burrell said. “I’m grateful for this country. We live in the greatest country on the planet.”
Stephen Miller owns stock in ICE contractor Palantir — a company powering deportations
The White House says it has no plans to sell any of its stock in the company. The company has been involved with the U.S. government for more than a decade. It was founded by former President George H.W. Bush and his son-in-law, Donald Trump. The firm has been in talks with the White House about a possible sale of some of its shares, according to a report in The New York Times. The report says the company is looking to sell the stock to raise money for a new program to help immigrants get out of the country. It also says it is working with the federal government on a plan to make it easier for immigrants to get out by providing information about where they are and how to get there. The White House has not commented on the report, but has said it will continue to work with the Department of Homeland Security on the issue of immigration reform, which it calls a “national priority”
The investment, held in one of Miller’s children’s brokerage accounts, raises conflict of interest red flags as the tech company continues to play a substantial role in the work of U.S. immigration officials.
“Given Palantir’s contracts with ICE, and Miller’s work with the agency, that raises ethics concerns,” watchdog group Citizens for Ethics in Washington wrote on X on Tuesday.
The government dismissed the concerns over the holdings, which were disclosed in financial filings obtained by the Project on Government Oversight watchdog group, showing revisions as recent as June 4.
Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin called the group’s report “very silly” while the White House claimed that Miller confirmed to ethics officials that “he has and will continue to recuse from participating in official matters that could affect those stocks.”

Palantir has long served as a government contractor, working with a variety of U.S. agencies on issues ranging from tax data to distributing vaccines, but the firm has occupied a prominent — and lucrative — role as the Trump administration pursues its mass deportation campaign.
In April, the firm won a $30 million Immigration and Customs Enforcement contract to deliver an operating system tracking and managing deportations, as well as granting “near real-time visibility” on those who “self-deport.”
Leaked chats obtained by 404 Media describe the company assisting ICE with finding the physical location of people slated for deportation.
The firm is also reportedly assisting the Trump administration as it looks to streamline and centralize government data about millions of Americans, an effort which has drawn criticism from members of Congress who fear it could usher in mass surveillance.
Palantir insists it is not building any “master list” for the government, and that its separate agency customers control the data they process using Palantir tools within clear legal and ethical guardrails.
Miller’s reported investments are the latest sign of Palantir’s deep ties with the new administration.
As of December, the firm was reportedly in talks with defense tech company Anduril, as well as eventual White House advisor Elon Musk’s SpaceX, to form a consortium to bid on government contracts, according to the Financial Times.
Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir, was among the scores of tech executives who donated to Trump’s inauguration in January — $1 million, in his case — and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel was a key backer and former employer of Vice President JD Vance.
Once Trump was in office, the firm won a $795 million Pentagon contract, and its name appeared among the high-profile corporate sponsors of the Army’s 250th anniversary event in Washington earlier this month.
Palantir’s chief technology officer was among the prominent tech executives formally sworn into the Army’s new innovation corps this month.
The watchdog group that obtained Miller’s filing identified 11 other administration officials who either currently hold or have owned stock in Palantir, though none with holdings as large as Miller.
In May, a group of former Palantir employees warned in an open letter that the company was “normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a ‘revolution’ led by oligarchs.”
“By supporting Trump’s administration, Elon Musk’s DOGE initiative, and dangerous expansions of executive power, they have abandoned their responsibility and are in violation of Palantir’s Code of Conduct,” the employees wrote.
The company has long insisted it is guided by a patriotic mission and strict care for civil liberties.
“Palantir’s founding mission and our commitment to privacy and civil liberties, which have guided our work for over 20 years, help the US government deliver essential services to the American people,” it wrote in a June blog post, after Democratic lawmakers sent a letter to company leadership criticizing it for allegedly “enabling and profiting from serious violations of federal law by the Trump administration.”
Father-son duo becoming twin forces for Long Island-based Steel Polo
Juancito Redlich, 16, is from Argentina but comes to Long Island every summer to train to become a professional Polo player, following in the footsteps of his father. The father-and-son teammates hail from a farm in the flat and green Venado Tuerto — a passionate polo town located about 4 hours northwest of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Juancito and his dad typically train and play weekly at the free-to-attend Thursday “sunset” evening matches at Meadow Brook Polo Club in Old Westbury, as well as at Sunday’s “Polo at The Park” at Bethpage State Park, and occasionally at other matches in the tri-state area.“I am 47, I don’t know how many more years I will play,” Juan, a member of LI-based Steel Polo, told The Post. “We share every day together. … So for me, this is the biggest gift that life has ever given.”
They’re a royal family in the sport of kings.
Professional polo player Juan Redlich is having a summer to remember on Long Island, riding side by side with his son, Juancito, as the 16-year-old strives to follow in his father’s footsteps — or, rather, hoofprints.
“I am 47, I don’t know how many more years I will play,” Juan, a member of LI-based Steel Polo, told The Post.
“We share every day together. … So for me, this is the biggest gift that life has ever given.”

The father-and-son teammates hail from a farm in the flat and green Venado Tuerto — a passionate polo town located about 4 ¹/₂ hours northwest of Buenos Aires, Argentina — where they play during the South American summer, which spans from December to February.
“My father taught me a lot of stuff about horses, the relationship with the grooms,” said Juancito, who is still learning English and uses his time on LI to improve.
“We’re in the field all day to practice, to ride, and I learned a lot from him.”
The polo patriarch added that their home nation is ecstatic over the development of a family dynasty, and it shows when they take on big tournaments in the capital city and elsewhere.
“They get very excited about us, about what my son is doing,” said Juan, who first came to Long Island as an 18-year-old and took a job caring for horses during the summer months.

Greener pastures
Since then, the Redlich family has spent its days enjoying the beauty of the North Shore, usually from June to September, in Huntington.
Juancito and his dad typically train and play weekly at the free-to-attend Thursday “sunset” evening matches at Meadow Brook Polo Club in Old Westbury, as well as at Sunday’s “Polo at The Park” at Bethpage State Park, and occasionally at other matches in the tri-state area.
Juan, or “Johnny Juan” as announcers call him at the weekend match, is a crowd favorite at Bethpage.
Given the sport’s complex nature and the physical limitations of the animals, the matches require jockeys to substitute their horses through each of the usually four to eight chukkers, which each lasts 7 ¹/₂ minutes.
Sending a horse from Argentina costs upward of $12.5K per animal, and the expense lands on each individual player with help from sponsors, according to a handler familiar with the situation.

“We flew nine up for this summer. They just got here the other day,” said Juan, who commended his son’s handling of the creatures.
“He’s very natural with the horses. … I never saw him fighting with a horse or making one tired. He brings out the best in them.”
Not horsing around
Juancito has loved horses since he was a little boy riding in the fields of Argentina.
The teen athlete, who also plays soccer and rugby, drew closer to polo during the pandemic’s isolation period, as riding was one of the few opportunities to get fresh air.
Since then, Juancito said he naturally underwent his father’s tutelage, but quickly showed his own moxie while saddled up.
“I can say one thing, from the beginning he was a very natural rider,” according to Juan.

“I never tried to push him to play polo because I think he has to choose whatever makes him happy.”
Now, Juancito aims to refine his game over the next two to three years, adding finesse, coordination and striking power to prove why he deserves a shot in the pros and at major tournaments.
Long Island’s Constitution Cup, a two- to three-week tournament that began this week, is the ideal platform to showcase weeks of improved play, he said.
“If it doesn’t work out, I want to go to college for agriculture and have a Plan B,” said Juancito, who is fond of his almost entirely polo-dedicated summers on Long Island.
“But no matter what, I want to work with horses for the rest of my life.”
For now, however, the goal is striking while the mallet is hot.
“I want to be a better player,” he said. “Doing this with my father pushes me to be my best.”
Joey Chestnut Is Returning to Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest After Being ‘Banned’ Last Year
Joey Chestnut is set to return to Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4. The 16-time Coney Island champion announced the news on June 16 in a thread on X as well as a post on Instagram. Last year, Chestnut shocked competitive eating enthusiasts by announcing he would not be competing in the competition. He instead competed against soldiers at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, in a five-minute hot dog-eating race dubbed “Pop Goes the Fort.” Chestnut easily won, eating 57 hot dogs, while four soldiers ate a combined 49 hot dogs. Since the five competitors ate a total of 106 dogs, $106,000 was donated to Operation Homefront, a nonprofit that helps military families in need. He also competed against hot dog eating rival Takeru Kobayashi on Labor Day in the Netflix special “Chestnut vs. Kobayash: Unfinished Beef” He won that too.
Joey Chestnut is set to return to Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4 after being “banned” last year. The 16-time Coney Island champion announced the news on June 16 in a thread on X as well as a post on Instagram.
I’m thrilled to be returning to the Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest. This event means the world to me. It’s a cherished tradition, a celebration of American culture, and a huge part of my life. (1/3) — Joey Chestnut (@joeyjaws) June 16, 2025
“I’m thrilled to be returning to the Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest,” Chestnut wrote. “This event means the world to me. It’s a cherished tradition, a celebration of American culture, and a huge part of my life.”
Last year, Chestnut shocked competitive eating enthusiasts by announcing he would not be competing in the Coney Island competition, taking to Instagram on June 11 to share his side of the story.
“I was very disappointed to learn from the media today that after nearly 20 years I am banned from the Nathan’s 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Contest,” Chestnut wrote. “I love competing in that event, I love celebrating America with my fans all over this great country on the 4th and I have been training to defend my title.”

Despite rumors that Chestnut was banned from the competition, Major League Eating (MLE) told TODAY.com that wasn’t the case.
“There is no ban,” MLE co-founder Richard Shea said at the time. “Major League Eating wants him there. The fans want him there. Nathan’s wants him there.”
The dispute came about after Chestnut allegedly partnered with a Nathan’s Famous competitor — a claim he has denied.
“While I have and continue to partner with a variety of companies, including some in the plant-based space, those relationships were never a conflict with my love for hot dogs,” Chestnut wrote on June 16. “To be clear: Nathan’s is the only hot dog company I’ve ever worked with.”
On Independence Day 2024, Chestnut instead competed against soldiers at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, in a five-minute hot dog-eating race dubbed “Pop Goes the Fort.” Chestnut easily won, eating 57 hot dogs, while four soldiers ate a combined 49 hot dogs. Since the five competitors ate a combined 106 dogs, $106,000 was donated to Operation Homefront, a nonprofit that helps military families in need.
In Coney Island last year, Patrick Bertoletti took home the mustard yellow belt in Chestnut’s stead, eating 58 hot dogs in 10 minutes. Miki Sudo broke the women’s record by eating 51 hot dogs.
Chestnut also competed against hot dog eating rival Takeru Kobayashi on Labor Day in the Netflix special “Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef.” He won that too, downing 51 dogs to Kobayashi’s 45.
“We are excited to have Joey back in Coney Island — this will be the best event in the history of organized sports,” Shea tells TODAY.com.
“tradition restored,” posted one X user in response to the news of Chestnut’s return.
“In NBA terms: Michael Jordan coming back to the Bulls after doing the baseball thing,” an Instagram user wrote.
“I can’t imagine the 4th of July without you king. Welcome back 🙌,” wrote another.
Chestnut added that while he respected “differences in interpretation,” he’s grateful he and the organizers of the contest were able to find “common ground.”
“I’m excited to be back on the Coney Island stage, doing what I live to do, and celebrating the Fourth of July with hot dogs in my hands!” he wrote. “Stay hungry!”

Long Island teen inspired by local slain Navy SEAL hero overcomes paralysis — and now wants to join up
Finn Schiavone, 16, of Bay Shore suffered a traumatic brain injury in the eighth grade after accidentally being tossed off a wrestling mat and into a heating pipe. The teen had to be homeschooled while confined to a wheelchair as he relearned the basic functions of his body. After two years of grueling recovery, Finn finally took his first steps with a cane last year and now aims to become a SEAL himself.“I knew if he was able to go through the hell that he went through, that I could go through my situation,” Finn said of Long Island’s Michael Murphy, a slain Navy warrior from Patchogue.Michael, whose sacrificial heroics were retold in the 2013 film “Lone Survivor,’ was part of a four-man team surrounded by more than 50 members of the Taliban in the Afghanistan mission. He, two teammates and 17 other military reinforcements were killed in the deadly showdown 20 years ago, with Daniel fatally exposing himself to enemy fire to call for help.
A paralyzed teenage Long Island wrestler says he took inspiration from a local fallen Navy SEAL to recover — and now hopes to follow in his hero’s footsteps and join the elite unit.
Finn Schiavone, 16, of Bay Shore suffered a traumatic brain injury in the eighth grade after accidentally being tossed off a wrestling mat and into a heating pipe, leading to the nightmare that no kid or parent would ever want to face.
“I wasn’t able to walk, I could barely talk, I lost lots of my vision. …I wasn’t able to do school and was focusing on basic life skills like counting to 10,” Finn recently told The Post.

“I wasn’t able to walk, I could barely talk, I lost lots of my vision. …I wasn’t able to do school and was focusing on basic life skills like counting to 10,” Finn recently told The Post. Dennis A. Clark
The teen had to be homeschooled while confined to a wheelchair as he relearned the basic functions of his body and elementary rhetoric, such as being able to pronounce the word “firefighter.”
Sensing the despair he faced, the teen’s teacher brought him to the Michael P. Murphy Navy SEAL Museum in Sayville after his 2022 accident.
“She thought it would inspire me because she knew how much I loved the Navy SEALs,” Finn said.
After two years of grueling recovery — inspired by Murphy, a slain Navy warrior from Patchogue — Finn finally took his first steps with a cane last year and now aims to become a SEAL himself.

“I knew if he was able to go through the hell that he went through, that I could go through my situation,” Finn said of the 29-year-old war hero, who died saving comrades in Afghanistan in 2005.
“It’s your ‘why’ factor, really,” the teen said of his motivation. “You just have to find your reasoning, your purpose for what you do. Once you find that, then the ‘how’ of actually achieving the goals doesn’t become an excuse anymore.”
Never out of the fight
Finn said he was deeply moved by the museum, where he met Daniel Murphy, Michael’s dad.
Michael, whose sacrificial heroics were retold in the 2013 film “Lone Survivor,” was part of a four-man team surrounded by more than 50 members of the Taliban in the Afghanistan mission. He, two teammates and 17 other military reinforcements were killed in the deadly showdown 20 years ago, with Daniel fatally exposing himself to enemy fire to call for help.
“Never quit — that was part of Michael’s persona,” his father told The Post.
“Finn didn’t have very good control over his motor skills, but even then, it was amazing how he took to Michael’s story.”
Finn said those two words — “Never quit” — resonated with him like nothing else could.
“Finn didn’t have very good control over his motor skills, but even then, it was amazing how he took to Michael’s story,” Michael’s dad said. Dennis A. Clark
“They were in the most impossible situation — yet they never quit, especially when it looked very grim for them,” the teen said of Michael and his comrades. “They stuck it into the end and even to the point where Michael sacrificed himself for his teammates.”
Finn said that day, he vowed to walk again — no matter what it took.
Hell weeks
The teen ended up bravely facing 10 hours of brutal physical therapy a day, where the act of standing up for 3 minutes would cause him to pass out over and over again.
“I would do that non-stop for six hours,” he said. “I would just keep hammering that out, doing that six days a week.”
Finn also endured stim therapy to his legs, “which is when you’re basically electrocuting your legs to hopefully get the nerves to connect again,” he said.
The challenge consists of a 1 mile run then 100 pull-ups, 200 pushups, 300 squats and another mile run, the LT Michael P. Murphy’s daily workout. Dennis A. Clark
“Since I had complete paralysis, we had to crank the machine all the way up to the max,” the teen explained, saying that after he started to regain feeling, it became excruciatingly painful.
While all of this was going on, Murphy and the museum’s executive director, Chris Wyllie, a former SEAL, were right in his corner to carry him through the dark times.
“I would always make sure to come back at least once a month, just because they were probably one of my biggest cheerleaders,” Finn said.
Over 300 people participated, one from as far away as Italy, in the 2025 Murph Challenge at The LT Michael P. Murphy Navy SEAL Museum. Dennis A. Clark
“They were always there to help me out and support me. We always made an effort to stop by whenever I made a milestone. This is the first place I would visit.”
Last year, Wyllie pushed Schiavone’s wheelchair during a charity race named for Michael Murphy at Lake Ronkonkoma, where the hero had been a lifeguard.
“He isn’t inspirational, he’s Finn-spirational, and I’ve been saying that for years,” Wyllie said.

The teen shocked everybody when he rose from the wheelchair and walked the final steps with the help of loved ones.
“Just having everyone on my back, holding me up, I definitely realized I would walk on my own again,” Finn said.
He started moving with a cane in September, and by March, he had regained almost complete control of his body, to the point that he would “hit the gym four times a week.”
“This was the pinnacle for me of being fully recovered. I just wanted to give it all I had,” Schiavone said. Dennis A. Clark
The soon-to-be Bay Shore High School junior said he didn’t push himself only for the sake of wellness but also to honor Michael Murphy’s name.
“I just think it’s just another sense of where Michael continues his legacy of service to our American citizens,” Daniel Murphy said.
So you wanna be a frogman?
This past Memorial Day Weekend at the museum, Finn took on what was once unthinkable for him: the grueling “Murph Challenge” — a 1-mile run followed by 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats and then another mile dash, all in a 20-pound weighted vest. Murphy invented the regiment during notorious basic underwater demolition SEAL (BUD/s) training.
Greeted by the roar of the military community and fitness enthusiasts taking on the gargantuan task, the teen, who was given a perseverance award at the 2024 event, finished the workout with flying colors.
“This was the pinnacle for me of being fully recovered. I just wanted to give it all I had,” he said.
The teen said that after he finishes high school, he hopes to go to the US Naval Academy.
He then aims to one day qualify for SEAL training and wear the hallowed trident of the frogmen.
Wyllie said he is “1,000, not 100%” confident that Schiavone has what it takes.
“I would be the first person to put money down that Finn would make it,” the former SEAL said.
The teen likes his own chances, too.
“After what I’ve gone through, BUD/s seems pretty light,” he quipped.
