About Bacon & Cheese Whataburger
The Bacon and Cheese Whataburger adds the two upgrades people order most: bacon and cheese. At $7.69 and 752 calories, the base is unchanged, a quarter pound patty with mustard, lettuce, tomato, pickles and diced onions on a toasted five inch bun.
What bacon adds here is texture as much as smoke. The strips sit under the cheese so they stay crisp against a hot patty, and the salt gives the mustard something to push against. It is the most ordered upgrade on the menu for a reason: it changes the burger without changing what it is.

How to Make Bacon & Cheese Whataburger at Home?
Cook the bacon first and build the burger in its fat. That single step is what separates a homemade bacon cheeseburger from a good one.

Instructions
0 of 6 stepsTips
- Start bacon in a cold pan. It renders evenly instead of curling.
- Toast the buns in bacon fat. It takes ten seconds and does more for flavor than any sauce.
- Break the strips in half and lay them flat so every bite gets bacon.
Variations
- Bacon Blaze: add pickled jalapenos and pepper jack for heat.
- Avocado bacon: add sliced avocado, which is close to the Avocado Bacon Burger at $8.69.
- Double bacon and cheese: two patties, two slices, six strips.
Serving Ideas
Serve with fries and Spicy Ketchup, or onion rings if you want sweetness against the bacon salt.
