"A bacon cheeseburger is the ultimate American classic, and every major fast food burger chain offers one. We were more than happy to taste bacon cheeseburgers from 8 different fast food restaurants to find the very best, and Five Guys' Little Bacon Cheeseburger found its way to the very top. Five Guys certainly spares no expense (and neither do you) on its high-quality ingredients, but the Little Bacon Cheeseburger is worth its weight in gold."
"The smash method Five Guys uses creates a juicy, tender burger with crispy, smashed edges. Where the superiority of ingredients really beats the competition is with the applewood-smoked bacon. While we tended to temper our expectations for fast food bacon, Five Guys bacon is good enough to compete with sit-down restaurants. It was perfectly crispy and crackly with a decadent fat content that made it melt in our mouths after the initial crunch."
"The American-style cheese was the literal icing on the cake, coating the burger and bacon in a creamy, gooey blanket. The sesame bun was soft and fluffy yet sturdy enough to hold the hearty patty, bacon, and fresh toppings. Speaking of toppings, Five Guys wins even more points for variety. While we kept things simple with lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo, you can customize your burger with as many of their 15 toppings as your heart desires."
Five Guys' Little Bacon Cheeseburger combines rich 80/20 beef patties cooked with a smash method that produces juicy interiors and crispy edges. Applewood-smoked bacon delivers a crispy, crackly texture and decadent fat that melts after the initial crunch. American-style cheese provides a creamy, gooey blanket over the meat and bacon. A soft yet sturdy sesame bun holds the components while fresh toppings add balance. The chain offers 15 customizable toppings for personalization, and the single-patty little size often provides a balanced, satisfying bite without overwhelming richness.
