# Premium Fast Food Burgers Arby's Debuted a Limited-Time Line of Two Wagyu Beef Burgers By Colin Smith | Published 2022-05-24 | Business Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wagyu-steakhouse-burgers References: [brandeating](https://www.brandeating.com/2022/05/arbys-launches-new-wagyu-steakhouse-burgers.html) & [arbys](https://arbys.ca/?aa)  [Arby's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bbq-bacon-burger) announced the release of its newest limited-time menu addition, the [Wagyu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wagyu-feast) Steakhouse Burgers. Included in this line are the 'Deluxe Wagyu Steakhouse Burger' and the 'Bacon Ranch Steakhouse Burger.' While both burgers contain Arby's wagyu beef patty, it is important to note that Arby's wagyu patty is made through a mixture of American Wagyu beef and regular ground beef, meaning it is not pure wagyu beef. The Deluxe Wagyu Steakhouse Burger includes a traditional set of fast food burger toppings, including shredded lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, and cheese. Aside from this, the burger comes with a high-quality brioche bun and a special in-house burger sauce. The Bacon Ranch Steakhouse Burger features the same list of toppings, except it has parmesan peppercorn ranch instead of burger sauce. The ranch burger costs $6.99 USD while the deluxe burger costs $5.99, at participating Arby's locations nationwide.
