McDonald’s Hamburgers
3708 Forbes Avenue Pittsburgh, PA 15232
I was the lucky recipient of a $10 gift card to this quaint little home-style restaurant for Christmas, and two months later I finally decided to track down this hidden gem to try one of their Old Tyme Hamburgers.
Really though, I had to use this gift card at some point, and the constant marketing of the ALL NEW 1/3 lb. ANGUS finally reeled me in.
The description:
Each Angus Third Pounder starts with one third pound of thick, juicy 100% Angus beef and thick slices of everything. The Deluxe includes crunchy pickles, thick tomato slices, crisp red onion, mayonnaise, and mustard, set atop a toasted sesame seed roll.
At first glance, the ALL NEW ANGUS seems like it’s just an improvement on the Big N’ Tasty.
Take note of that tiny fucking dollop of mustard next to the mayonnaise at about 1 o’clock…
..because that is exactly how much mustard my ALL NEW THIRD POUND ANGUS contained. Do you see it? It’s there, sitting quietly, perched atop the tomato. The bun was delicious as fuck, the toppings were actually fresh and crisp, and the biggest shock: the beef visibly appeared as such. Since this burger is so huge and intense, they had to throw TWO slices of cheese on this piece. I almost forgot to mention that because the cheese was absolutely tasteless, it’s sole purpose merely to provide the illusion of eating an actual cheeseburger. At only 0.005 cents per calorie, this burger is a definite value. I ordered a side of french fries as well, but I don’t think I need to bother with that review.
To be completely honest with you, this burger was pretty good. This statement is probably heavily influenced by my partial intoxication at the time and the delicious chemicals laden in all McDonald’s food, but oh well. If you’re going to get something from McDonald’s, you may as well order THE ANGUS.
Burger Ratings:
Burger: 2
Among fast food chains, I would rate this burger a 6. But overall I am giving this a 2.
Side: 5
French fries and medium drink with purchase of a Value Meal. The french fries are engineered to be delicious, and that is exactly what they are… as long as they are scalding hot.
Environment: 1
Would have been a -5 if I went during the day and had a homeless man sneeze on my food, but since it was at 1am I was instead surrounded by drunk college kids. The only redeeming factor is the balcony seating.
Value: 8
$3.99 for the burger
$5.49 for the meal
“I’m lovin’ it”
