With the A.1. Bacon Cheeseburger $5 Buck Lunch, the Dairy Queen system, owned by Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A and BRK.B), is offering fans the steakhouse treatment at a value price point.
The A.1. Bacon Cheeseburger $5 Buck Lunch is complete with the DQ®’ brand’s juicy cheeseburger made with an all beef patty that’s topped with melted Swiss cheese, applewood smoked bacon, caramelized onions and creamy A.1. spread, and served with crispy fries, a 21 oz. beverage and a choice of a DQ signature sundae.
“Value is important any time of the year, but particularly following the holidays,” said Maria Hokanson, Executive Vice President of Marketing for American Dairy Queen Corporation (ADQ). “DQ is kicking off the new year by bringing excitement to the value category by offering new, on-trend flavors. It’s something you can’t get anywhere else.”
