Towering BBQ Bacon Burgers

Checkers and Rally’s New Smoky BBQ Bacon Buford is Big on Meat

— June 10, 2020 — Lifestyle
Bacon lovers rejoice because Checkers and Rally’s have just debuted a meaty new Smoky BBQ Bacon Buford burger.

Just as the name suggests, the new Smoky BBQ Bacon Buford is a burger that's big on BBQ flavors. The towering new burger starts with two hand-seasoned, 100 percent beef patties topped with slices of melted Swiss cheese, two strips of bacon, Sweet & Smoky BBQ sauce, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, smoky mayo, and a final smattering of chopped bacon bits on a toasted plain bun. The new burger is very similar to Checkers and Rally’s BBQ Bacon Big Buford, which debuted back in 2016 and was made with a smoky honey BBQ sauce.

Even better news? Checkers and Rally’s is also bringing back the Fry Lover’s Double for a limited time.

Trend Themes
1. BBQ Burger Craze - The increasing demand for BBQ burgers creates opportunities for restaurants and food manufacturers to experiment with different meat and sauce combinations.
2. Bacon Resurgence - The popularity of bacon in fast food menus can inspire the development of new bacon-based products or the improvement of existing ones.
3. Limited-time Offerings - The success of bringing back past menu items for a limited time can prompt more fast food chains to revisit their catalogs and revitalize older offerings for new customers.
Industry Implications
1. Fast Food - Fast food companies can capitalize on the BBQ burger trend and the resurgence of bacon to offer unique, flavorful products that stand out from their competitors.
2. Meat Processing - Meat processing companies can collaborate with fast food chains to develop custom meat blends and sausage varieties that cater to the BBQ bacon burger market.
3. Food Service Equipment - With the increasing demand for towering burgers, food service equipment manufacturers can create tools and machines that make burger assembly faster and easier, without compromising quality.
