News: Burger King - New Extra Long BBQ Cheeseburger:

Burger King essentially doubles up on the Rodeo Cheeseburger for the new, limited-time Extra Long BBQ Cheeseburger. It's basically two Rodeo Cheeseburgers served on a long sesame bun (the same as you'd find with the Original Chicken Sandwich).

If we're being specific, it is two flame-grilled beef patties side-by-side (alas, no extra long beef patty), topped with American cheese, onion rings, and barbecue sauce on a toasted long sesame bun.

A price hasn't yet been announced but I would guess the suggested price would be $3.99.

I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that, at that price point, buying two Rodeo Burgers (at $1 a piece) and adding a slice of cheese to each (a 50 cent upcharge although it may vary) would cost $3.

While the Extra Long BBQ Cheeseburger is new here, it's something that's been offered before over in a few countries in Europe, but with three patties instead of two, which pretty much means our version would simply be the "Long BBQ Cheeseburger" over there.

Mhhm. That looks mighty tasty to me.
But you may get more value getting a bunch of smaller things and combining.

Does BK have a McGangbang variant of it's own?

sfedai0 · May 28, 2014

So its a sub.

Esch · May 28, 2014

That's just a double cheeseburger tho. Or two cheeseburgers added together since there's more bun.

Right? It should be 1 shape of meat.

Like the god damned chicken sandwich.

This is an outrage.

Miles X · May 28, 2014

Is this in the UK?????

yyzjohn · May 28, 2014

Look at that sodium content, almost an entire day's worth based on what recommended intake values are.

Ahasverus · May 28, 2014

Well it seems so monstrous 4 people could eeat from it. Value!

Dunno, but apparently it was in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands a few years back. Here's the old Dutch ad from back then:

BronsonLee · May 28, 2014

I feel like Xia should just start a fast food blog at this point so we can get him some ad revenue

THE FOOD BLOGGER

Also, this thing looks like one of the Hungry Man Hero Cheeseburger things

Not Spaceghost · May 28, 2014

This makes me feel really weird.

Dark Octave · May 28, 2014

Lose the onion rings and add some regular burger toppings and I'm down to try it.

sixteen-bit · May 28, 2014

it looks liek a sub

Fox Mulder · May 28, 2014

so, double cheeseburger with more bread.

Fireblend · May 28, 2014

I feel bad just looking at it.

exactly. Not even trying to get into my stomach at this point.

Jacobi · May 28, 2014

Why does BK USA always show their cokes in a glass? Do you always get a glass for free there?

Bgamer90 · May 28, 2014

So pretty much a Rodeo Cheeseburger Sub.

kehs · May 28, 2014

They couldn't be bothered to make a single long pattie? Jesus Christ.

Zaptruder · May 28, 2014

Well... fuck. I feel like making me some home made burger sub.

Naa, it's just the default beverage. Chains that have agreements with pepsi instead of coke always show pepsi glasses.

I'm more interested in spicy salsa-filled mozzarella sticks tbh.

Why would they do that vs just using two normal patties?
If they did that, they would have to make them special order every time, which would take longer.

They're just repurposing their current ingredients to make something new. They learned from Taco Bell!

Gives it that old time 'merican feel to distract from the soul crushing of fast food consumption

Never enough protein

Rodeo Cheeseburgers were my favorite BK item.

Thank you Small Soldiers.

Hmmm? Sodium intake is like 2400mg a day usually

Every visit to Taco Bell is a learning experience. I'm working on my thesis now!

Grab the sandwich wrong and you can potentially have a patty falling out the back.

That's some bullshit.

His thesis would totally be on human biology, asking the question of how people have such weak stomachs that they can't handle fucking Taco Bell

OH SHIT A DESIGN FLAW

Tom Nook · May 28, 2014

Yummy.

slit · May 28, 2014

It's a pub burger. Bars and Sheetz have been selling these for a long time.

Velinos · May 28, 2014

Burger King did this long ago. I remember the Gilbert Brown Burger promotion back in the late '90s that was effectively three Whopper Jr's spread across the Chicken Sandwich bun.

alr1ght · May 28, 2014

That's some terrible photoshopping. Looks like everything is floating.

diunxx · May 28, 2014

We have that over here but without onion rings, it's their best sandwich.

Gentleman Jack · May 28, 2014

I can't remember the last time I actually had lunch at BK. I've had their breakfast sandwiches a few times, they aren't terrible. They're generally a 3rd choice for me, after familiar local chain burger joints and Carl's.

NaughtyCalibur · May 28, 2014

It won't look anything like that.

Imagine that photo, then imagine what the burger would look like if it got walked on. It'll look like that.

Waaghals · May 28, 2014

Yeah, it's pretty good, but nothing out of the ordinary.
The other one in that dutch ad wasn't anything to write home about.

Mully · May 28, 2014

Why don't they just stack two patties on top of each other?

woodypop · May 28, 2014

Would eat. I love Rodeo Burgers.

Sir_Crocodile · May 28, 2014

So two cheeseburgers in the chicken royale bun?

tlo's getting pretty lame these days at the major franchises

no, just their exclusive soda brand deal or whatever.

burger king does have the coke freestyle machine though, pretty nice.

Sulik2 · May 28, 2014

Looks kind of good. Surprised it clocks in under 800 calories too.
