However, due to the influx of annoying Angus Diet advertisements I felt compelled to try it again, hoping it would please the Advertising Gods and make those commercials go away.  Unfortunately, my theory didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t work.  <\/p>\n<p>I think if I ate a heart attack\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s worth of Angus Steak Burgers, only then would I be able to get away from those damn commercials, unless heaven has basic cable.<\/p>\n<p>So what exactly is Anus\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6I mean Angus beef?  What makes it so special?<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, only 8 percent of the beef in the United States can be considered Angus beef.  It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s known for it outstanding juiciness, tenderness, and flavor.  Unfortunately, I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t find out if the Angus beef comes from the ass of a cow, since I think that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s how Angus got its name.<\/p>\n<p>Enough with the slaughterhouse lesson, let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s talk about the rest of the burger which consists of fire-grilled onions, cap leaf lettuce, red ripe tomatoes, freshly toasted corn-dusted buns, signature steak sauce, juicy bacon, and slightly melted cheese.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know whose signature is on the steak sauce, but they should definitely erase their signature, because this peppery sauce isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t very good.  Not as peppery as the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/index.php?p=13\">Salt and Pepper Pringles Potato Chips<\/a>, but it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t add much to the burger.  Besides, if the Angus beef is so damn good, why add some weak sauce to cover it? <\/p>\n<p>Despite the sauce, the Angus Bacon and Cheese Steak Burger isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t a bad burger.  It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s big and thick, like all burgers should be and the Angus beef is actually pretty tasty, when the sauce doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get in the way.  The burger is kind of pricey, but I guess if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re getting beef that consists of only 8 percent of all the beef in the U.S., there should be a premium on it.<\/p>\n<p>Then again, should there really be a premium on a burger that I might accidentally (or purposely) order as the Anus Steak Burger.<\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b> Burger King Angus Bacon and Cheese Steak Burger<br \/>\n<b>Purchase Price:<\/b>  $5.39 (Value Meal)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>   6 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Big, thick burger.
