Burger King Introduces Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper Created by Fans

Burger King has exciting news for its fans with the introduction of the Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper, a new menu item crafted through customer inspiration. In addition, the fast-food giant is bringing back a nostalgic favorite: the Cinnamon Apple Pie.

This launch is a part of Burger King’s innovative Whopper By You initiative, which empowers diners to submit their unique Whopper recipes for the opportunity to be featured on menus nationwide.

Ingredients and Features of the Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper

The Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper builds on the earlier Steakhouse Bacon Whopper introduced in early 2025. This tantalizing burger consists of a flame-grilled beef patty, crispy onion rings, smoky bacon, sautéed mushrooms, creamy Swiss cheese, and zesty peppercorn aioli, all nestled within a perfectly toasted sesame seed bun.

Previously released fan-inspired creations such as the BBQ Brisket Whopper and the Crispy Onion Whopper, which debuted in 2025, highlight the growing popularity of this initiative. Burger King announced that the Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper is just the first of many exciting creations planned to launch this year. Fans eager to share their own ideas can do so through Burger King’s official website.

In addition to the new burger launch, Burger King has revived its apple pie offerings after a hiatus since 2020, introducing the Cinnamon Apple Pie. This dessert merges the flavors of past favorites, combining the essence of the chain’s discontinued Dutch Apple Pie with the beloved traditional fried apple pies that have graced fast-food menus over the years.

The warm, indulgent Cinnamon Apple Pie features a flaky, crispy crust encasing a delightful filling of cinnamon-spiced apples, making it a perfect complement to the savory offerings.

The timing of this release is particularly noteworthy, following closely behind the whimsical introduction of a ‘Krabby Patty’ style Whopper, which intriguingly featured a square yellow bun.
