Bacon King

What is it?

Built on a sesame seed bun, this burger stacks two flame-grilled beef patties with thick-cut smoked bacon, American cheese, ketchup, and mayonnaise. It’s a straightforward assembly of meat, salt, fat, and sauce, with the bacon doing a lot of the heavy lifting in both texture and flavor. Compared with Burger King’s simpler cheeseburgers, it’s larger and richer, with more going on between the buns. The patties are joined by the bacon rather than hidden under it, so you get chew from the meat and a smokier bite from the strips.
