MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BURGER KING® restaurants are introducing the BACON KING™ sandwich, a big, hearty, bacon-rich burger that will never apologize. With six slices of crispy bacon, two ¼ lb1 savory flame-grilled 100% beef patties, four slices of American cheese, ketchup and creamy mayonnaise on a soft sesame seed bun, this burger is here to stay.
Made with lots of meat and almost too much bacon – if that were possible – the BACON KING™ sandwich is BURGER KING® restaurants’ answer to voracious eaters who’ve worked up a major appetite and have zero interest in skimping out.
“We didn’t hold back with the BACON KING™ sandwich,” said Alex Macedo, President North America, Burger King Corporation. “Six strips of bacon, four slices of cheese and two big beefy flame-grilled patties. The BACON KING™ sandwich makes meat-lovers’ dreams a reality. We know our guests are going to put this burger into heavy rotation.”
This new permanent menu item is available at participating BURGER KING® restaurants nationwide at a recommended price of $5.99 for the sandwich and $7.99 as a small meal. For additional information, visit www.bk.com.
