Steers Menu Highlights and Customer Favourites
Steers has built its reputation across South Africa on fresh ingredients and signature cooking methods. Unlike fast-food chains that fry or flat-top grill their patties, Steers prepares its meat over an open flame, giving every burger its distinctive smokey flavour.
100% Flame-Grilled Beef & Chicken Burgers
The core of the Steers menu revolves around 100% pure beef patties and flame-grilled chicken breasts with no artificial fillers:
- King Steer Burger: The flagship double-patty burger loaded with cheese, bacon, gherkins, fresh tomato, lettuce, and Steers’ signature sauces.
- Prince Steer & Original Steer: Classic single-patty options featuring fresh garnish and relishes.
- Big Bacon King: A double beef favourite packed with melted cheese and crispy streaky bacon.
- Rave Burger: A budget-friendly staple topped with tangy Rave sauce.
- Flame-Grilled Chicken Burgers: Tender chicken fillets basted in your choice of lemon and herb, BBQ, or spicy peri-peri marinade.
- Plant-Based & Vegetarian Options: Veggie burger options crafted for meat-free dining without missing out on flame-grilled seasoning.
Signature Hand-Cut Chips & Steers Seasoning
Steers chips are widely celebrated across South Africa. Made from fresh potatoes, hand-cut daily, and fried until golden with soft, fluffy centres, they are tossed generously in Steers’ iconic secret chip seasoning. The famous purple-labelled Steers seasoning shaker is so popular that bottles are sold individually in-store and at retail supermarkets.
Flame-Grilled Ribs & Sharing Platters
For meat lovers seeking alternatives to burgers, Steers offers tender pork or beef ribs marinated in sweet, sticky BBQ basting and flame-grilled to order. Menu sizes range from single rib snack packs to full-rack sharing platters paired with large chips.
Ridiculously Thick Shakes & Soft Serve Desserts
Steers’ “Ridiculously Thick Shakes” live up to their name with an ultra-dense, creamy texture. Available in traditional flavours like Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla, and Banana, as well as premium specialty creations like Bar-One, Oreo, and Coffee, they are a signature accompaniment to any meal. Soft serve cones, sundaes, and waffles are also available at most sit-down and dessert-bar branches.
