McDonald’s Texas Burger 2013

McDonald’s Big America ALL STARS Texas Burger is back in 2013. The burger made its original debut in 2010 and now returns to the menu for a limited time. The Texas Burger went on sale from 1 February and will stay on the menu until the end of the month. The burger itself costs 370 yen (USD$3.90) in the Gifu area, or 590 yen for a Small Set (USD$6.20).

The Texas Burger features mustard relish, barbecue sauce, bacon, cheese and fried onions. The burger is unusual because it also has a middle bun aimed to separate the ingredients. It was created to bring the crowds back to McDonald's and offer them a taste of America.

I’m not too sure how authentic the burger is, but it does taste pretty good, and I really like the mustard relish and barbecue sauce combination.

  1. I can assure you those burgers are 100% authentic American. Why I remember as a kid we used to sit at the dinner table for Christmas and enjoy a nice burger with bacon, barbecue sauce and fried onions. ;)

    1. Thanks Doug, That's good to hear, I wasn't sure there but thanks for your confirmation. You must live the good life in America being able to eat these all the time :)

  2. I remember these burgers from when I lived in Japan in 2010. There were another couple as well - I think german sausage, carbonara and something else that sounded pretty gross.
