if you grind it up with it’s fat, it makes no matter if it’s wagyu or black angus, or hereford.
This marketing crap is for dummies.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
Remember Wagyu is famous for extreme marbelling...which is destroyed by grinding.
We had the Wagyu burger yesterday. It was massive and messy with two thick patties in each burger.
Actually, I think there was only supposed to be one beef patty per burger and someone made a mistake.
I cut mine in half and still have half in the fridge. It was very good, next time I will try the Wagyu Bacon Ranch burger.
I’ve always wondered why some chicken places don’t have burgers. I don’t particularly like fast food chicken, so when we’re deciding where to go, I usually veto chickfila, popeye’s, etc. Most burger places have chicken sandwiches, so it is a no brainer to go there.
Another screw up was Five Guys — when they first came to my neighborhood, they refused to have milkshakes! (The fast food trinity is burger/fries/milkshake, after all) Well I got in the habit of not going there, so when they finally caved, and added milkshakes, I kept the habit of passing them by.
” ...the best grilled burgers are made from...”
My favorite is ground rib trimmings. There is a local market that buys only rib primals, and all the trimming get ground up and sold for $3.99 (a few years ago it was $1.99). A large portion of the grind is what they trim off of ribeye fillets — the cap and the lip.
‘$5.99 won’t last.”
Yes. Limited edition per article.
“At $5.99 the percentage of actual Wagyu beef is going to be infinitesimally small”
American Wagyu, not close to the real deal Japanese stuff. Still probably less than 15% is my guess,
“Arby’s is selling a fast-food staple it’s never offered before”
At a minimum they did test markets a year ago. There are YouTube reviews.
I never liked Arby’s roast beef, it had a very typical Deli beef bouillon flavor that I don’t particularly care for.
I got a baconator at our local mcwendys...
It had no flavor, just different textures...
Horrible
I’m beginning to lose trust in Arby’s.
They can’t even remember the Black Angus Burger that they sold in the late 80’s I ate it nearly everyday while they offered it. It was a good size high quality all beef burger they offered for a few months. I’m really shocked that they don’t know their own history that burger was part of a national launch. I’ve hoped they would bring it back ever since.
Matt's. The locals sent me there.
Then, you had a Jucy Lucy. The Juicy Lucy is served at the 5-8 Club.
True story.
Wendys cures constipation.
A friend who worked at arby’s back in the mid 80’s told me once that the roast beef was actually marinated ham.
don’t know the truth to that but nowadays would really get the muzzies enraged..
