    Anybody try the Burger King Big King XL?

    Burger King commercials claim is tastes like a Big Mac, but bigger?

    I haven't tried it.

    Check in.




    Looks nothing like a Big Mac, so not sure?

    Wait... What?

    BK went out of buisness??

    Where?

    Whoppers used to the bomb back in the day.

    Not so much anymore. kinda shitty now.

    Maybe it's why they are coming out with Big Mac replicas? Which are also shitty.

    Too many veggies on it. I'm okay with the onions (and/or jalapenos), but the lettuce and tomato have to go.

    BK has decent offers via mobile app, just went with their $5 whopper meal: (fries, drink + 2 refills).

    Walked away completely satisfied.

    BK app can save you some cash. $1.00 - $2.00 off retail priced food.

    I was thinking about trying it.... looks decent


    Isn't the secret sauce in the Big Mac thousand island dressing? Wonder if the BK XL has it?

    Burger King is struggling and will be extinct in 2 years, try to not eat any fast food unless I am out of town and want to get back on the highway without delay.

    Burger King's business model has been to simply ride on the back of McDonalds advertising. Whatever McDonalds did and spent a lot advertising, BK would do a version like this Big Mac thing.

    It's played out. McDonalds not dominate enough with the gimic food promos anymore for the model.

    Burger King in my town is a lot busier than McDonalds. The BK, Arby's and Chick FilA all have young white kids working there. McDonalds is all mexicans who can't speak English.

    Yep. Same with location too. McDonalds will pay tens of millions of dollars doing market research studies and all that stuff just to find good locations for their "restaurants" and Burger King will just plop a store across the street from them.

    I used to work with DABOOK for a food delivery company about 20 years ago, we used to deliver to Burger King's every day. Sometime we'd get free meals from the managers. I remember when the Big King came out back then (the smaller version), it wasn't bad. But we noticed every time we ate one, we had to take a massive crap about an hour later. We figured the secret sauce had some kind of laxative in it, so we nicknamed it The Dook.

    The big mac uses "normal" patties
    This uses the "Whooper" patties so like getting a bigmac using quarter pounder bugers patties.
    McDonalds also now give you the option of a small, regular, or larger bigmac

    Only thing worth getting at BK is the ham egg and cheese croissants for breakfast. That and their french toast sticks.

    Grew up and loved BK. My buddies dad owned two of them so we'd always get free food ... but it was still good.

    Now, or at least where I live, BK's are trash. I haven't been to one in years. I don't eat fast food much anymore, but if I do it's Wendys.

    I have no idea what happened to BK. They have really gone downhill.

    Never got around to it. I don't think they have the Big King XL down here anyway just the Big King. I guess it is more or less the same thing though.

    Just with the national advertising alone... I really thought BK was doing better?

    I hardly eat fast food... but IMO here in the Detroit area.... you can taste a big difference in BK over McDonalds. The meat just tastes better... seems like more quality. Of course... it is fast food though

    Okay had one for dinner last night.

    not bad at all. I’m friends with the manager so they made me a fresh one.

    i think that is the key. Always come up with some excuse why you need a fresh one instead of one thats been sitting on the heating
    pad for who knows how long.

    The key to getting fresh fries is this say “ is it possible for me to get the french fries with no salt”?

    always ask in a question form. This requires them to acknowledge you. Otherwise they mumble some shit and ignore your
    request.

    then once you get your fries add in your own salt. I travel with my own salt now. Instead of fastfood salt I use himalayin salt

    believe it or not himalayin salt is actually good for you I put in my water to balance my PH levels

    Oh sorry no it does not.

    the big mac has that special sauce and that fresh high quality iceburg lettuce

    this one at BK I feel like has a tastier piece of beef but the lettuce and onion didn’t seem as fresh as McDonalds

    the bun I would say is a little better at BK too


    I dont know man I think go back and get another today and get a big mac too and eat them simultanousely so I can get an accurate read
