About the Bacon Double Cheese XL
The Burger King Bacon Double Cheese XL costs £7.99 and carries 910 kcal. Two flamed-grilled beef patties topped with Applewood smoked bacon and American cheese, all in our toasted sesame seed bun. It sits in the flame grilled burgers section of the UK menu, alongside 14 other items.
A single serving carries 63g of protein, which is 126 percent of a day's reference intake, 52g of fat, 24g of it saturated, 3.8g of salt, 63 percent of the 6g daily maximum, 8.2g of sugar. The salt is what makes this hard to pair, because most of what sits beside it on the menu adds more of the same.
At 316g the Bacon Double Cheese XL works out at roughly 288 kcal per 100g. That makes it about average for hot fast food, so the portion size is a fair guide to how filling it is.
Against the rest of the flame grilled burgers range it ranks 10 of 13 on price, so it sits toward the pricier end. That places it in the middle of a section spanning £1.49 to £8.79.
On calories it lands 262 kcal above the flame grilled burgers average of 648 kcal. If the count matters more than the craving, Texan BBQ Double Royale lands in the same place at 922 kcal.
The declared allergens are soya. It may also contain gluten, wheat, milk, egg, sesame through shared preparation, which matters more than the headline list if you are avoiding something strictly. The list is the brand's own, made against the fourteen allergens UK restaurants must declare. It describes the recipe rather than the branch, and branches differ.
Ordered as part of a meal, Double WHOPPER at £7.69 and BBQ Steakhouse Angus at £8.09 sit in the same section and are the obvious companions. The full menu price list shows what the whole order comes to, and the calorie calculator totals the nutrition as you add items.
