"We're happy to bring our customers another new and exciting choice on our expansive fresh food menu," said Jennifer Vespole, senior category manager for foodservice for Whitehouse Station, N.J.-based Quick Chek. "The launch of our new quarter-pound Angus Beef Burgers represents our commitment to offer a wide variety of menu choices that satisfies every craving morning, noon and night."
Regularly priced at $4.49 each, Quick Chek is offering the new Angus Beef Burgers for just $2.99 each every Friday for a limited time.
And, on Friday, July 17 from noon to 4:00 p.m., Quick Chek's own Burger Brigade will visit Jersey Gardens in Elizabeth, N.J., where they will offer mall shoppers the chance to share their own "beef" on videotape. Each participant recording their own "beef," will receive a coupon for a complimentary Quick Chek Angus Beef Burger.
Earlier this month, McDonald's launched a line of three Angus burgers priced at about $4 each. Varieties include a deluxe burger with pickles and tomatoes, a mushroom Swiss burger and a bacon cheeseburger.
The burgers will be sold in all U.S. locations for the next few months, said the Associated Press.
McDonald's has been testing the burger for several years in Ohio, New York, Los Angeles and New Mexico, but it held back from introducing it to all U.S. consumers to focus on its core menu and lower-priced offerings, said AP.
