In a move that will delight fast food enthusiasts across the country, Burger King has officially confirmed the triumphant return of a much-missed menu item. The Big King, an XL burger absent from menus since 2018, is making a grand comeback after years of persistent customer requests.
The Fan-Favourite Returns
The fast-food giant announced that the legendary burger is back by popular demand, perfectly timed for the festive season. The Big King officially relaunched on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, but fans will need to act quickly as it is only available for a limited period.
This isn't just a simple re-release; Burger King is enhancing the offering with a new, even larger option. The classic Big King is being joined by the new Big King Double Royale, giving customers a choice between two substantial burgers.
What's On The Menu?
The returning classic boasts the same signature recipe that earned its cult following. It features a double stack of flame-grilled beef patties, topped with melted American cheese, crisp fresh onions, tangy pickles, and the burger's crowning glory: its unique, signature pickled Big King sauce. All of this is served within a soft, toasted sesame seed bun.
To celebrate the launch, Burger King is rolling out an irresistible deal for its app users. For three days only, from Tuesday, November 11 to Thursday, November 13, customers can buy one Big King Double Royale and get a second one completely free. This promotion is exclusively available through the official Burger King app.
Sweet Treats and a Wider Menu Refresh
The burger comeback is part of a broader menu innovation. Burger King is also introducing new dessert options to complement the savoury items. Patrons can now indulge in a Chocolate Brownie Cheesecake or a Gooey Salted Caramel Cheesecake.
This follows another recent initiative from the chain, which saw the launch of a trio of burgers created by fans themselves. The return of The Big King marks a significant moment for the brand, demonstrating its commitment to listening to its customers and bringing back the flavours they love most.
