There’s a new burger on the market. Say hello to the Ultimate Steak Burger

What has John Hayes been up to since his retirement? Waiting to get stuck into a new Ultimate Steak Burger by the looks of it.

Hayes is notoriously reticent about taking his place in the public eye, although we suspect that might change a little following the end of his legendary Munster and Ireland career last season.

And while the current back of Irish rugby pros are currently putting themselves through a pretty harsh pre-season regime, the Bull is making the most of his free time, part of which at least he seems to have spent getting stuck into some burgers.

The lads at Superquinn have launched an all-new Ultimate Steak Burger. And what exactly makes it the ultimate burger, you might ask?

Well, for one it's made with select cuts of prime Irish Hereford beef, it's approved by Bord Bia and (maybe this is the crucial bit, for PR purposes anyway) it comes with a secret finishing touch. No, we've no idea. And they're not giving anything away.

Marking the launch there's a limited edition burger BBQ pack at Superquinn, which for €8 gives you four Prime Irish Hereford 6oz beef burgers and a 4-pack of Superquinn buns topped with some Superquinn Sliced Red or White Cheddar Cheese.

Now, if you'll excuse us we're off to find John Hayes, rob his burgers and run for our life. He's a 38-year-old retired prop - how fast can he run?
