It’s back! The Festive 5oz

This is the Irish equivalent of the Coca-Cola truck signifying the holidays are coming.

The burgers are made from the finest of 100% Irish prime beef and their succulence has a lot to do with the fact that they are never frozen. Fresh beef tastes better. Frozen beef loses moisture, and when you lose moisture you lose taste. And there is no taste lost here.

These are as fresh as they come. Cooked just the way you like it and topped up with caramelised onion and mushrooms. Throw on a slice of Swiss cheese and a splash of light peppercorn mayo and Pat’s Your Uncle — sandwiched together by a toasty crispy Kaiser burger bun.

This was the burger made famous by Sean O’Brien a few years back and its appeal has never waned. It is juicy and luscious and that bun is to die for.
