Burger King Japan is adding a gourmet new offering to its menu with the debut of the new Steak Sauce Whopper lineup.

Perfect for those looking for a more elevated fast food burger experience, the new Steak Sauce Whoppers contain pieces of actual steak. More specifically, each one features a flame-grilled, 100% American beef patty topped with pieces of cubed beef shoulder loin that's been slowly cooked using a sous vide cooking process that enhances the flavor. The steak and burger patty are then paired with a garlic-infused, roasted soy sauce-style sauce, fresh veggies, and mayo sauce.

In total, the new Steak Sauce Whopper lineup features four ways to enjoy the gourmet offering: the Steak Sauce Whopper, the Double Steak Sauce Whopper, the Spicy Steak Sauce Whopper, and the Double Spicy Sauce Whopper.
