he needed to be unique and different�</p>
<p style='margin-left:1.5in'>The Steak stood for STEAKBURGER� sandwich. Gus
would wait for the busiest time in his counter-only restaurant, wheel in a
barrel of steaks (including round steak, sirloin steak, and T-bones) and grind
the steaks into burgers right in front of the guests. Hence, the origin of the
famous slogan "In Sight It Must Be Right." </p>
<p style='margin-left:1.5in'>The Shake in Steak n Shake refers to a creamy,
real-milk, hand-dipped Milk Shake that has endured as the best Milk Shake on
the planet. Gus Belt used to put the Multi-Mixers Shake machines in the windows
of his restaurant so cars driving by had to stop for a Milk Shake.</p>
