1420 calories of pure, ruthless amazingness... Oh yeah, and some saturated fat too.

I can't have one, for my cholesterol is aleady high, but I sure can dream...

Oh man that looks good...

Too bad I've put on 8 pounds in the last 2 months or instead of eating the lunch I came home for, I'd get in my car and drive to the Hardees exactly 0.2 miles from my house and order one.

With a Diet Coke of course.

isn't it possible to make something like that but a little more healthy?

They use 30% plus fat burgers... lay on the salt etc... etc.. You can make a big burger that tastes great and is less than half the badside.

There's no substitute for the juiciness generated by excessive fat and salt.

hehe, that's not new. It's been out for several years I think.

I can eat like one a year. If I eat another before 12 months is up, I feel like a lard ball.

Of course, I still eat a Chick-fil-a sandwich and a milkshake once a week. Their milkshakes are like crack!

I disagree but I was not raised on fast food. My burgers are always at least 1/2 lb and are nice and red in the middle. If you don't overcook decent meat you will find it does not require much fat at all to taste juicy. Those who are used to salt are just that. If its lacking they think.. gee... this needs salt. I like and use salt but only when it seems to pull some extra out of a product.. ie.. Tomato or Cucumber or most beef products. I hate the salty taste of most processed foods becasue it crushes the many other tastes if it was done right in the first place. The same goes for excessive hots.

I never ate fast food as a kid either. In my opinion, there's nothing better than perfect piece of Filet Mignon, salted, peppered and garlicked moderately, then cooked to a nice medium rare. Salting liberally is sometimes warranted as most of it drips off on the grill, anyway.

However, as I've been prohibited from eating red meat at all, and now live off baked fish, vegetables and fruit juice, the prospect of a heart-killing burger, cheap as it may be, is mouth-watering.

A question: Doesn't this Angus Beef mean that it's at least of moderate quality, or is that largely a lie?

i don't think angus has anything to do with fat content.

Angus · « **Reply #11 on:** September 13, 2006, 01:49:22 PM »

Hehe, just entered my zone.
Beef from Aberdeen-Angus cattle along with the Hereford was for long concidered the world's finest. (The world back then being such that the UK was boss). But the Hereford has a more yellowish fat, - or at least had in the older breeds.
Now, the Angus grows nicely fat and fatter meat means juicier.
Many other breeds of cattle are bread with them becoming larger (and perhaps also older) before the fattenings starts occuring and many of the bigger breeds are also fed as accurately as possible for "red" meat.
(Intensive feeding, balancing protein and energy as accurately as possible for this, as well as the bulls not being castrated, then limited movement etc.)
So, today in short, true Angus beef is from an animal that gets fatter sooner, and is fed differently, and the final word of Aberdeen-Angus bloodline.
However, if you're buying Angus beef, I have no idea if it's a marketing ploy or if it is the real stuff.

The PETA person I know was an au-pair on my home. She ate the Angus beef with ease and delight.

Doesn't that go against some of their core beliefs??
