New Summer Menu Items at Burger King

June 2, 2026 By Dayton937

Summer has officially arrived at Burger King®. Today, Burger King is rolling out three new summer menu items, delivering a lineup of flavor-forward innovations designed to help Guests celebrate the season. From refreshing frozen treats to spicy, Guest-inspired creations, the all-new summer menu offers the ultimate mix of bold and nostalgic flavors, including:

Loaded Jalapeño Whopper®: “Whopper® By You” is back with an all-new Guest creation! This latest creation features 4.4 oz* of 100% flame-grilled beef topped with crispy and pickled jalapeños layered with a creamy jalapeño sauce, as well as crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes and American cheese, delivering the spicy kick Guests have been asking for.

Orange Dreamsicle Freezee King®: Freezee King is the new home for our frozen innovation. The Orange Dreamsicle Freezee King features that classic ‘creamsicle’ profile, with a frozen orange base, topped with orange cream cold foam & sprinkles.
Firecracker Cookie Pie: A ‘chilled crunch’ experience that layers velvety cream over a crisp sugar cookie crust, topped with red, white, and blue star-shaped sprinkles to celebrate America’s 250^th birthday.

And that’s not all! Two other fan-favorite limited-time menu items are sticking around so that Guests can truly have it their way all summer long:

Bacon Swiss BBQ Whopper®: A flame-grilled ¼ lb. of 100% beef*, loaded with melty Swiss, crispy pickle chips, bacon, lettuce, tomato and smothered in creamy BBQ Sauce.

Cheddar Ranch Tots: Perfectly crispy tots stuffed with melty cheddar cheese, fluffy potatoes and ranch seasoning.

“As the weather heats up, we know our Guests are craving for fun flavors that they and experience and share,” said Joel Yashinsky, Chief Marketing Officer, Burger King US&C. “Whether they’re looking for a full meal or a sweet or savory snack, these new limited time menu items deliver the type of innovation Guests have been asking for, and we’re continuing to listen and give them what they want.”

All new summer menu items launch in Burger King restaurants nationwide starting today, June 2.

Burger King unveiled a new burger innovation as part of its “Whopper by You” platform that allows the consumer to have a hand in shaping the menu. The first creation from its new platform is the BBQ Brisket Whopper — a smoky, savory twist on the flame-grilled classic, inspired by what fans of the Whopper have been asking for across the country, Burger King said.

“As the brand known for ‘Have It Your Way,’ we want to continue letting our guests tell us what they want, and when it comes to our iconic Whopper sandwich, they have a lot of ideas,” said Joel Yashinsky, chief marketing officer of Burger King US&C. “We’re excited to kick off the ‘Whopper by You’ platform with the BBQ Brisket Whopper, a flavor profile that our guests requested, and we are very excited to answer with an overwhelming, ‘You Rule!’”

The BBQ Brisket Whopper features slow-cooked BBQ brisket, crispy onions, American cheese and a sweet & golden BBQ sauce, all piled on a quarter-pound, flame-grilled beef patty with lettuce, tomato and mayo.

Additionally, for the first time, Burger King is offering its new Whopper as a Whopper Jr. for those seeking the same flavor benefits at a smaller scale.

Beginning on July 15, consumers can submit their dream Whopper creations on the Burger King website. With their first “Whopper by You” creation, guests can redeem a special Royal Perks offer assigned at random, ranging from a $0.01 Whopper sandwich each week for a year to free burgers with a purchase, and other deals.

Burger King Turns 71 and Celebrates with Deals

June 2, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Burger King is turning 71. Originally named Instant Burger King, the chain opened in 1954, a year before the first McDonald’s. A burger and milkshake restaurant, BK’s captured burger lovers’ attention in 1957 when it introduced the Whopper (just 37 cents at the time), still a staple on the menu.

In the decades since, it’s introduced countless other products, including breakfast sandwiches, chicken nuggets, chicken fries, wraps, and so much more to go with its fries, onion rings, and desserts—all designed to satisfy taste buds while traditionally offering value and letting guests “have it your way.”

Burger King is celebrating its birthday by giving away free burgers, mozzarella fries, onion rings, and other menu favorites all month long. To get a new freebie each day, you must be a member of Burger King’s Royal Perks, its rewards program.
Here’s what you can get:

June 15: To celebrate father figures on their special day, give the gift of a BOGO Whopper, available all Father’s Day long.

Mac-n-Cheetos Are Coming Back!

May 15, 2017 By Dayton Most Metro

Burger King’s Mac n’ Cheetos were originally introduced in June of 2016 and were an instant hit. These sticks of mac n’ cheese deep fried in orange Cheetos dust were the perfect answer for late night munchies. The portable little box contained five pieces and was served with ranch dressing.

You either loved them or you never tried them. According to Alex Swerdloff of Munchies, “Fox News took to the streets of New York and did a taste test. Most of the people they polled seemed to be pleasantly surprised by the orange snack, gushing the likes of, “Oh my god, this is so good!” Others pointed out pointed out that people are eating the Mac ‘N Cheetos, their fingers were clean and not orange—a big win.

Alex Macedo, president for Burger King inNorth America, called the Mac n’ Cheetos a “triple threat” for combining Burger King, Cheetos and mac and cheese. The snack has been brought to “satisfy guests’ cravings,” he said in a statement. But just as quickly as they captured the attention of the public, they disappeared. On the market for just eight weeks and poof- gone.

And just as suddenly, Burger King is brining them back its “Mac n’ Cheetos” for a limited time at participating restaurants starting May 18. You’ll get 5 pieces for $2.69, 20 cents more than they sold when they were available last summer.

Fast Food’s 5 Monster Burgers

September 7, 2016 By Dayton937 Leave a Comment

The Super Big Boy from Frisch’s is the Best

Food Adventures leaves no plate unturned. We eat it all and have no rules. Sure, most of our stories highlight locally owned eateries with food that we have fallen in love with. From time to time we will go off track and do our tongue in cheek take on chain restaurants, or in this case the dreaded “fast food chains”

Fast food is a guilty pleasure for many, and a way to grab a quick bite in a pinch…. even these chains go crazy touting deals or big specials. Today, we go all out and try some of their biggest creations and we don’t count a calorie. These are the “Monsters of the Meatway” if you will. These are the “Big Daddys of the burger industry,” and we aren’t afraid to rank ’em in order. They are the always huge, sometimes sloppy, sandwiches that will never have you asking “where’s the beef?’

Sit back, loosen your belt, and indulge on these must eats. Food

The Double Whopper from Burger King is a good one

Adventures presents the jaw dropping, must eat, top 5 “monster” burgers of the fast food industry:

FAST FOOD’S 5 MONSTER BURGERS:

1) “THE SUPER BIG BOY” at FRISCH’S RESTAURANTS:
The supersized version of the American favorite “Big Boy” burger. This one has the same amount of cheese, but 2 bigger patties, more lettuce and most imporantly, more of that unbelievable Frisch’s tartar sauce. It is a 1/2 pound of beef on the signature double decker bun, and it aims to please. It does just that and makes the grade as our #1 pick!

The Triple Cheeseburger from Wendy’s

2) “THE DOUBLE WHOPPER SANDWICH” from BURGER KING:
Another giant version of a popular burger, the flame broiled “double whopper” is a very filling sandwich. Over the year’s the regular whopper has been shrinking in size. This burger is a push back towards yesteryear. The hearty, sesame seed bun finally gets challenged and does the job, strongly holding the lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup, cheese and mayo together. The secret to this sandwich is the griled taste that is unmatched in the fast food world.

3) “DAVE’S TRIPLE CHEESEBURGER” at WENDY’S:
Not one, not two, but THREE patties, each one weighing a quarter of a pound make up this masterpiece. This “brick of beef” is packed with cheese and loaded with lettuce, tomato, mayo, pickles, ketchup, and onion. The soft bun holds this massive monster together. This sandwich is bursting with flavor but is not for the squeamish, as it has the most amount of meat in our list.

4) “THE BIG BUFORD” from RALLY’S:

The Big Buford from Rally’s

Two “seasoned and seared” beef patties on a bun with all the fixins. That means cheese, mayonnaise, ketchup, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes and onions served on a premium, sesame seed bun. Grab a napkin, this fast food freakshow likes to drip condiments on your hands and shirt. Probably the most bang for your buck on the list, as Rally’s is known for good prices. It is a Food Adventure on a bun.

5) “THE 2/3rd POUND MONSTER THICKBURGER with CHEESE” from HARDEE’S:
We were surprised to find out this burger had the word “monster” in its name. It must be fate, so it rounds out our list. This is the only “bacon burger” on our list. It features two 1/3 lb. charbroiled 100% Black Angus beef patties, 4 strips of bacon, 3 slices of American cheese and mayonnaise. The bun is heralded as “fresh baked.” It doesn’t matter though because the lack of condiments on this one makes the burger pretty much uneatable. This sandwich is just all meat, no toppings. Pretty gross unless you are a pure carnivore.
