Priced at $9.99, the handcrafted burger is a limited-time offering and comes with a side of fries.

Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill + Bar has expanded its handcrafted burger line-up in the US with the launch of the Whole Lotta Bacon Burger.

The latest addition is an all-beef patty infused with seared Applewood-smoked bacon and topped with three additional bacon slices, bacon sauce and American cheese.

Served on a toasted brioche bun accompanied by lettuce, tomato, red onion and pickles, the burger comes with a side of fries.

Applebee’s chief marketing officer Joel Yashinsky said: “If you love bacon, we’ve got the burger for you.

“This burger has all your bacon bases covered with Applewood-smoked bacon seared into the beef patty, bacon in the tangy sauce and bacon slices on top. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy one of our new guest-favourite items!”
