Sam’s Club 100% Angus Beef Burgers

I’m a little leery about buying frozen burgers. Much like the mysteries of certain cheaper hot dogs, frozen burger patties immediately give me uneasy feeling – exactly what’s in this patty.

I recently put my preconceptions on hold to give these burgers from Sam’s Choice a whirl. Like much of the Sam’s Choice range, the packaging is smart and neat. Crucially – the ingredient section of the box lists just one thing: Angus beef.

Inside the cardboard box you’ll find six patties, a third of a pound each in their frozen state. They’re separated by freezer paper which makes pulling them apart even when frozen a cinch. A little nudge with a butter knife might be needed at most. A nice touch is that the plastic packaging is resealable too.

The burgers are intended to be cooked from frozen either on the grill or in the pan. My BBQ is out of commission for the time being so I took the pan route. The box instructs a total of 13 minutes of pan frying, turning throughout and cooking from frozen. I found that a little bit too long personally, but then I might have been cooking a little too high as well.

Adjust to your own cooking method and style but be careful not to overcook. If you see the patty starting to curl up at the edges it’s probably starting to dry out.

All things said, I was a fan of these burgers. The beef is relatively firmly packed and I like the fact that these are 100% beef and beef only. There’s no filler and they’re relatively juicy.

From scratch burgers would be better of course, but these patties offer the flexibility of having something on hand at all times right from the freezer. At $8 for a pack of 6 they work out to barely more than a dollar a patty which is a fantastic deal. That puts them alongside fast food prices – and they taste much better than a run of the mill drive-thru burger for sure.

An of course, home-cooking means you can craft your perfect burger on demand. My favorite way of course, with a runny egg…

Are Sam's Club 100% Angus Beef Burgers any good?

Yes. These are a very solid product to have on hand. At a little more than a dollar a burger they’re the match of a fast food burger in price, but certainly better in flavor and texture.

    • I could only suggest your local Walmart or Sam’s Club I’m afraid. Being an in house brand product I don’t believe you’d find them anywhere else. Perhaps call your local store and see if they can give you an update on their stock and maybe even put some aside for you?

  1. Are the Angus burgers with aged cheddar cheese still being produced? The local Walmart hasn’t had any for about a month, just the plain patties.

    • I believe so John, my local Walmart is still listing these for sale within their grocery app. Maybe check with your local store manager to see if there’s a supply issue locally.

    • Hi Brenda, the packaging lists just “Angus beef” as the ingredient. That said, I would contact the manufacturer directly for complete clarity when it comes to sensitivities or allergies.

  2. So my family and I had these for the first time in at least a year and they have changed. They have weird white dots in them and then centers feel fabric-y? We have had these in the past and were the only frozen burgers we would eat but we will not be trying these again or even finishing the box. Maybe myself and my sister sick on out stomachs.

  3. I found a bone tonight in this. I looked online and there could have been an issue with separating bones from meat. Has anyone known of anyone else with this issue. Is there anyone to contact? This bone was sharp. Just dangerous to people and worried about worse being in other peoples food.
