The "Bacon Blaze Jalapeño Double."
The double patty burger is served on a standard Whataburger large bun. It is served with bacon, jalapenos, a new "blaze" sauce, and between the burger patties is a significant amount of jalapeno cream cheese.
When I purchased the burger this afternoon I did not look up the ingredients list ahead of time. I wanted to gauge my natural reaction to all of the flavors. All I could taste was the cream cheese. I occasionally got a bite of a little bit of jalapeno and bacon but it was
overwhelmingly cream cheese forward.
What's interesting is when I was eating it I actually didn't even know it was cream cheese because it tasted more like a queso - like a white sauce you would get at a Tex-Mex restaurant. When I saw it was jalapeno cheese it made sense but the texture was a bit runny for cream cheese. I did not taste any of the blaze sauce at all. Overall the burger was not very spicy because I think the cheese nullified quite a bit of the kick.
Overall it was not bad but not something I would necessarily go out of my way to seek out again. I may travel to a different Whataburger location in the future to see if the cheese ratio is different and perhaps I may have a different reaction.
I give it a 4/10.
