Quarterpounder Bacon & Cheese

What is it?

Quarter-pound beef sits on a sesame seed bun with bacon, melted cheese, lettuce, tomato, and relish. It's built as a larger, more loaded version of Wimpy's standard quarter-pound burger, keeping the same basic structure but adding the salty bacon and cheese layer. Beef is formed for fast-food grilling, so it comes off with a firm exterior and a soft centre, while the bun usually holds everything in a tidy stack. Wimpy's been serving this format in UK high streets since long before the American chains arrived, and it shows in the slightly more old-fashioned approach to assembly. Relish adds a sweet-sharp note that distinguishes it from the mustard-and-ketchup builds you'd find elsewhere, and the bacon brings enough salt to balance the milder cheese.
