The Checker's & Rally's Philly Cheesesteak Burger is Indulgent

— March 1, 2025 — Lifestyle
The Checker's & Rally's Philly Cheesesteak Burger is headed to participating locations as a new sandwich option that offers an alternative to the classic Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. The burger starts off with a 100% beef patty that's topped with sliced pieces of Philly steak before being paired with Swiss cheese, grilled onions and finished with mayo. The sandwich comes served on a bakery-style bun that has been lightly toasted to give it a touch of additional texture.

The Checker's & Rally's Philly Cheesesteak Burger is making its debut alongside the new Bacon Philly Loaded Fries, which are positioned as an indulgent new side option. The fries feature the brand's signature Famous Seasoned fries topped with cheddar cheese, bacon crumble and pieces of Philly steak.
