Steak ‘N Shake has given its classic Steakburger a makeover with the debut of the new Pork Belly Steakburger. Debuted alongside the new Cotton Candy Milkshake, the combo is the ultimate comfort food.
Released as part of its 2020 seasonal specials, Steak ‘N Shake's new Pork Belly Steakburger is a sweet and savory creation. The burger starts with the brand's signature 100% beef Double Steakburger topped with two pieces of crispy and glazed thick-cut pork belly. The meat is also paired with caramelized onions, a slice of American cheese, and a savory maple bourbon sauce, all served on a toasted bun. As the brand puts it, the new burger is "Hot-off-the-grill and ready to get in your belly."
