Loaded Bacon Burgers

Burger King's New Bacon King Burger Features a Generous Helping of Bacon

Burger King recently expanded its menu to include the new Bacon King burger. While many fast food chains are catering to the growing demand for healthier options and dishes made with less meat, Burger King is continuing to provide over-the-top dishes that cater to foodies looking for a way to indulge.

The new Bacon King burger consists of two flame-grilled beef patties topped with a whopping six slices of thick-cut bacon. In addition to the half-pound of beef and generous helping of bacon, the burger also include two slices of melted American cheese, mayo and ketchup. The burger is similar to Wendy's Baconator, which is designed for customers who are looking for a dish that offers a more indulgent culinary experience.
