Whataburger announced the return of its fan-favorite breakfast offering, the 'Whataburger Breakfast Burger.' This is a traditional breakfast sandwich with a premium twist. The sandwich contains an abundance of toppings such as a slice of beef, two slices of bacon, a fried egg, tater tot-style hash browns, and a piece of melted American cheese. Lastly, the sandwich is topped with creamy pepper sauce and served on a hamburger bun.
The Whataburger Breakfast Burger was popular during its initial release as a result of its value. The SRP of the burger is $4.99 on its own, which is quite affordable given the premium list of toppings on the burger. Additionally, breakfast combos are available to add a side and a drink, rounding out a morning meal.
