What was announced
On October 14, 2026, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. announced that the limited-time Prime Rib Stack Burger would be available from October 19 at participating locations nationwide, together with a wider set of menu additions. The same announcement returned the Bleu Ribbon Burger and the Burnin' Love Burger to the chain's Big YUMMM Deals menu on October 19, which Red Robin says starts at $9.99 for an entree, bottomless side and beverage, and launched a line of five bottomless Refreshers — Tropical Dragon Fruit, Mango Passion Lemonade, Sunset Lemonade, Poppin' Purple Lemonade and Raspberry Limeade — with Red Bull available as an addition. Red Robin also listed a spinach artichoke dip, two new wing seasonings, a Signature Grilled Chicken & Broccoli plate and two soft-serve desserts. No price was announced for the Prime Rib Stack Burger and no end date was announced for anything in the lineup.
Why it matters
The announcement bundles a premium limited-time item with a value-menu expansion on the same day, and the single price in it belongs to the value menu rather than to the burger in the headline. That is the detail most likely to be lost in coverage, and the one a reader searching for what the new burger costs actually needs. The other gap is the usual one: Red Robin named a start date for five separate additions and a last day for none of them.
What Red Robin announced
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. announced the lineup on October 14, 2026 from Englewood, Colorado, with everything going on sale five days later, on October 19, at participating locations nationwide.
The headline item is the Prime Rib Stack Burger, which Red Robin describes as a hand-pressed beef patty topped with tender sliced prime rib, Monterey Jack cheese, caramelized onion and garlic aioli on a black-and-white sesame seed brioche bun, served with a bottomless side. The company calls it a limited-time item and a meat-on-meat burger aimed at guests after a premium option. Brian Sullivan, executive chef and vice president of Culinary & Beverage Innovation at Red Robin, said in the announcement that the burger is piled high with a juicy beef patty, tender sliced prime rib and melty cheese.
Red Robin announced no price for it. That is worth stating plainly, because the one figure in the announcement attaches to something else.
The $9.99 is the value menu, not the new burger
Two burgers returned on the same day: the Bleu Ribbon Burger and the Burnin' Love Burger. Red Robin says both joined its Big YUMMM Deals menu on October 19, starting at $9.99 for an entree, a bottomless side and a beverage.
That $9.99 is the only price in the announcement, and it covers the value-menu meal, not the Prime Rib Stack Burger. Anyone arriving from a search for what the new burger costs should know that Red Robin has not said.
The company lists the returning burgers' builds. The Bleu Ribbon Burger comes with bleu cheese crumbles, crispy onion straws, lettuce, tomato and green chili aioli on a brioche bun. The Burnin' Love Burger returns with fried jalapeno coins, salsa, pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomato and green chili aioli on a brioche bun. Both are served with a bottomless side and a bottomless beverage.
The conditions on that price are more restrictive than the headline figure suggests, and Red Robin states them in the release. The company says the deal is for dine-in at participating locations for a limited time, is not valid with other offers or rewards, and that bottomless sides and beverages are not available on to-go or delivery orders. Availability, pricing and menu items vary by location, so $9.99 is a starting price rather than a national one.
Five bottomless Refreshers
Red Robin also launched a line of bottomless Refreshers in five flavours: Tropical Dragon Fruit, Mango Passion Lemonade, Sunset Lemonade, Poppin' Purple Lemonade and Raspberry Limeade. The company says any Refresher flavour can be made with Red Bull added.
No price was announced for the Refreshers, and the same bottomless restriction applies: Red Robin states that bottomless beverages are not available for to-go or delivery orders.
No end date on anything
Red Robin described the Prime Rib Stack Burger as limited-time and the Big YUMMM Deals additions as available for a limited time, without stating a last day for either. The Refreshers and the other additions carry no end date either.
That makes the whole drop a set of open-ended limited-time items, which is the usual pattern and the usual gap: the chain commits to the start and not the finish. This page carries no end date because none has been announced, and will be updated when one is.
