ChorizOMG! Whataburger introduces new Chorizo Burger with Creamy Chili Sauce, Chorizo Taquito with Cheese

October 2, 2017 -- We often hear from our customers they’re interested in trying new flavors, so we answered the call in a big way with our newest limited-time burger, the Chorizo Burger with Creamy Chili Sauce. Chorizo, a type of ground sausage that derives its bold taste profile and deep red color from a fresh blend of spices, is already a staple in many places and gaining in popularity.

We’ve truly piled on the flavor with this burger, y’all. The sizzling chorizo gives the burger a bold taste, while a blend of fire-roasted poblano peppers, red peppers and onions give it a fresh bite. We combined these two ingredients with our new Creamy Chili Sauce, two slices of Monterey Jack cheese and two fresh, all-beef patties for a unique burger with the perfect balance of spice.

“Mexican-style chorizo makes this burger unique with its deep red color, fresh blend of spices and bold, flavorful profile,” said Rich Scheffler, Whataburger Vice President of Marketing and Innovation. “The flavors on this burger blend nicely for a balanced but savory taste we think our customers will enjoy.”

The Chorizo Burger is only available for a limited time (no exact dates to share), so we encourage customers to try it while you can. Prices vary by market. Stay tuned on social media for the latest updates.

The build:

  • Two beef patties: never-frozen, juicy 100 percent pure beef, double patties
  • Chorizo: fresh blend of spices, bold and flavorful with a deep red color
  • Fire-roasted blend of poblano peppers, red peppers, and onions
  • Two slices of Monterey Jack cheese
  • New Creamy Chili Sauce mixes six different types of peppers for a zesty flavor
  • Toasted five-inch white bun
