Burger King UK's Gourmet Kings lineup consists of two burgers made with a slew of premium ingredients, including angus beef. The first is the [Steakhouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steakhouse-bacon-whopper) Angus King, which starts with a flame-grilled British and Irish Aberdeen Angus beef patty topped with clicked tomatoes, onions, rocket (arugula), mayonnaise, oak-smoked cheddar cheese, bacon, and BBQ sauce – all served on a toasted golden brioche bun. The other new burger is the Argentinian Angus King, which features the same flame-grilled British and Irish Aberdeen Angus beef patty, but with a topping of onions, rocket (arugula), oak-smoked cheddar cheese, chili sauce, crispy onions, and chimichurri mayonnaise. Both of the new Gourmet Kings will be available across the UK as of October 11, 2021.
