Whataburger introduced a new menu item for fall titled the 'Whataburger Chili Cheese Burger.' This is a stuffed, filling burger that is fit for keeping customers warm as the season gets colder.
The Chili Cheese Burger features a beef chili topping spread overtop two real beef patties and two slices of American yellow cheese. On top of this, Whataburger adds corn chips to the burger to give it an added crunch and detract from the messiness of a chili-stuffed burger. Lastly, the burger is topped with grilled onions and mustard to round out its flavor palate.
The Whataburger Chili Cheese Burger is available in 8-oz and 4-oz sizes at participating locations at prices that may vary by state and location.
