Baconator | Price & Calories
The Baconator stacks two fresh, never-frozen beef patties with six strips of crispy Applewood smoked bacon and melted American cheese, finished with ketchup and mayo on a warm, toasted bun. Unlike Dave’s lineup, the Baconator skips the vegetables entirely, keeping it purely meat, cheese, and bacon; a Wendy’s signature item built for serious bacon lovers.
