Baconator

The Baconator is a brand of cheeseburger introduced by the international fast-food restaurant chain Wendy's in 2007. The primary product consists of two quarter-pound beef patties topped with mayonnaise, ketchup, two slices of cheese, and six strips of bacon. Single and triple patty versions were also offered, as well as limited-time seasonal variants. The brand was later expanded with the Son of Baconator, which uses smaller patties, and the Breakfast Baconator, which replaces the hamburger patties with a sausage patty topped with an egg and a melted Swiss cheese sauce.
