Stuart Anderson, Black Angus Steakhouse founder, diesSFGATERancho Mirage, Riverside County
Stuart Anderson wasn't a cowboy, but the founder of the Black Angus Steakhouse chain knew how to corral customers. Mr. Anderson was born in Tacoma, Wash., but grew up in Seattle. He was a tank driver with Gen. George Patton's Third Army during World War II.Mr. Anderson eventually returned to Seattle after the war, buying an old downtown hotel. State blue laws permitted hotel owners to sell hard liquor, his wife said. "As fast as I could, I installed a small bar in the lobby," Mr. Anderson wrote in his 1997 book, "Here's the Beef! My Story of Beef."
"Hookers, seamen, hustlers, and wrestlers made up most of my trade," he said. The hotel had a small restaurant, and that was the part of the business that attracted him, his wife said. "He decided that he didn't like the hotel part, but he loved the restaurant part," she said.
When he founded the chain in 1964, Anderson offered a big meal for a small price: For $2.99, customers got soup or salad, their choice of steak and a baked potato with all the trimmings. "They were lined up outside the doors," his wife, Helen, said Wednesday.
But the price didn't include dessert. Mr. Anderson wanted heavy volume, and he didn't want folks to linger, she said. "He wanted to get them out of there,” she said. “That was his whole theory. But he gave them a lot of food for the money."
In 1964, he opened the first Black Angus in Seattle. At its peak, the chain had more than 120 outlets around the country. The chain was sold in 1972, but Mr. Anderson stayed on to run it before retiring in the mid-1980s. The business had its ups and downs, changing hands several times. There currently are about 45 Black Angus Steakhouses, most in California.
For many years, Mr. Anderson and his family had a 2,400-acre working ranch in eastern Washington that raised, among other animals, black Angus cattle. Mr. Anderson was 93 when he died Monday at his Rancho Mirage home in the Southern California desert. He had lung cancer.
The History of the
Angus Breed in AmericaAngusThe First Angus in America
When George Grant transported four Angus bulls from Scotland to the middle of the Kansas Prairie in 1873, they were part of the Scotsman's dream to found a colony of wealthy, stock-raising Britishers. Grant died five years later, and many of the settlers at his Victoria, Kansas, colony later returned to their homeland. However, these four Angus bulls, probably from the herd of George Brown of Westertown, Fochabers, Scotland, made a lasting impression on the U.S. cattle industry.They Wintered Better
When two of the George Grant bulls were exhibited in the fall of 1873 at the Kansas City (Missouri) Livestock Exposition, some considered them "freaks" because of their polled (naturally hornless) heads and solid black color (Shorthorns were then the dominant breed.) Grant, a forward thinker, crossed the bulls with native Texas longhorn cows, producing a large number of hornless black calves that survived well on the winter range. The Angus crosses wintered better and weighed more the next spring, the first demonstration of the breed's value in their new homeland.Early Importers and Breeders
The first great herds of Angus beef cattle in America were built up by purchasing stock directly from Scotland. Twelve hundred cattle alone were imported, mostly to the Midwest, in a period of explosive growth between 1878 and 1883. Over the next quarter of a century these early owners, in turn, helped start other herds by breeding, showing, and selling their registered stock.
