The BK Stacker sandwiches are a family of hamburgers sold by the international fast-food restaurant chain Burger King.

Product description

Variants

The variants of the BK Stacker sandwich are:
* The Double Stacker - 2 patties, 4 pieces of bacon, 2 slices of cheese and stacker sauce
* The Triple Stacker - 3 patties, 6 pieces of bacon, 3 slices of cheese and staker sauce
* The Quad Stacker - 4 patties, 8 pieces of bacon, 4 slices of cheese and stacker sauce
* The Octo Staker - 8 patties, 16 pieces of bacon, 8 slices of cheese and stacker sauce

Hungry Jack's offers a similar sandwich called the BBQ Beef Stack that features single, double and triple sized burgers along with a fried egg and a unique BBQ sauce called "Jack Sauce."cite news |first= |last= |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=U.S. Restaurant Chains Find There Is No Too Much. |url=http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/28/business/media/28adco.html |quote=Ads for Burger King’s new BK Stackers, for instance, tell customers they can supersize their hamburger to include as many as four slabs of beef, four slices of cheese and four strips of bacon.

History

The BK Stacker was first introduced in the summer of 2006. The chain garnered media attention due to the size of the sandwiches, particularly the Quad, and the large amount of calories and fat that the sandwich had (see the Enormous Omelet Sandwich breakfast sandwich.) In a November 2006 menu revision, the Double BK Stacker has become a numbered Value meal item in North America, with the number varying by market area. The BK Stacker, renamed the BBQ Beef Stacker, was introduced by Hungry Jacks in Australia in March 2007, available in single, double and triple sizes.

Advertising

The BK Stacker was introduced using commercials that employed groups of little people in the roles of members of the "Stackers Union". The characters were "Vin," played by Danny Woodburn, "the new guy," and various members of the "Stackers Union" construction team that work in a BK kitchen assembling the sandwiches. The tag line was "Meat, Cheese and Bacon- Stacked High". As exemplified in the advertising campaign, part of the sandwich's concept revolves around not having vegetables like lettuce, onions, or tomatoes, which some people see as "filler" on a burger. cite news |first= |last= |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=U.S. Restaurant Chains Find There Is No Too Much. |url=http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/28/business/media/28adco.html |quote=Ads for Burger King’s new BK Stackers, for instance, tell customers they can supersize their hamburger to include as many as four slabs of beef, four slices of cheese and four strips of bacon.
