Bacon lovers rejoice because Checkers and Rally’s have just debuted a meaty new Smoky BBQ Bacon Buford burger.
Just as the name suggests, the new Smoky BBQ Bacon Buford is a burger that's big on BBQ flavors. The towering new burger starts with two hand-seasoned, 100 percent beef patties topped with slices of melted Swiss cheese, two strips of bacon, Sweet & Smoky BBQ sauce, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, smoky mayo, and a final smattering of chopped bacon bits on a toasted plain bun. The new burger is very similar to Checkers and Rally’s BBQ Bacon Big Buford, which debuted back in 2016 and was made with a smoky honey BBQ sauce.
Even better news? Checkers and Rally’s is also bringing back the Fry Lover’s Double for a limited time.
