Whataburger's chicken pricing is insane. Fried from frozen chicken sandwich is more than Popeye's. Though maybe that's the not-getting-assaulted-by-employees upcharge

Popeyes has that pricing to get you in the door in hopes of you paying 35 bucks for a ten piece meal.

Had a Monterey Melt yesterday.   Just as amazing as I remember it.  Needed to permanently stay on the menu.  

What's that run now? $13?

Not for nothin', but the price hike has been not nothin'.  As of about two years ago, I can get a far superior burger and fries combo from a local chain (with a drive-thru) for maybe a buck more if I don't bother with a drink.  If this local chain figures out how properly to combine the elements of jalapeno, cheddar, and biscuit, W'ate[r]burger's gonna be in trouble for my going there outside of a roadtrip where it's the best/most-agreeable option.

Bumping this... First trip to WB tomorrow and need to know what slaps and goes hard. I'll be in Albequerque and my favorite chicken place seems to have closed? 

Top contenders based on the research thus far...

Buffalo chicken strip sammich on Texas toast

Sweet and spicy bacon cheeseburger 

Patty melt

Thoughts or other recommendations from the experts?? I'll hang up and listen

^este. They didn’t create the chain they are now by selling seasonal gimmick burgers. They did it by making a whataburger, all the way. Add grilled japs.

First trip ever? Double double with japs. 

no mustard, double mayo.

double meat, 1x shredded cheese (which is actually cheese, as opposed to sliced cheese which is american), and whatever else you like on a burger. but it being a whataburger you should really go with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles and mustard. i usually get extra pickles, and grilled jalapenos when the mood strikes. bacon is another nice upgrade.

all specialty burgers/chicken are better on texas toast. but i wouldn't go with one until you've had the classic.

also get regular and spicy ketchups.

 

and a dr pepper shake for dessert if those are available. if not, a chocolate malt isn't a bad sub.

Yeah, I don't get to Texas very much... and we don't have a WB anywheres in the PNW.

But no doubt that it'll be amazing... really looking forward to it.

Nope, no DrP shakes, but there's a "mexican hot chocolate" one. Perhaps that as a malt??

Wish I could go back and have whataburger for the first time

i was 4 or 5. it was breakfast. probably the location on san felipe near voss, near where my father's office was at the time. the orange juice was sour - the shit that comes in the plastic cup with foil on the top. me, being 4 or 5, did not enjoy it (me, much older, still isn't a fan of that shit). i didn't want to go back to whataburger for years after that (not that there was one nearby for a while).

Double Whataburger with cheese +bacon, +grilled onions, +grilled jalapenos.

As long as they actually cook the bacon, of course.

No mayo, you can ignore Futureman on that, everyone else does. :)

Yeah, I mean…I’m literally ordering a Whataburger breakfast right now, so WB has its place…but you’re in ABQ. So hit up Blake’s Lotaburger and get this:

All the way, with mustard and mayo. You’re welcome.

And I’m getting a JCB sammich with sausage right now. Good way to start the day.

I would say, if this is your first trip to Whataburger, get the og Whataburger with cheese straight up. Gives you a good baseline.  Kind of like ordering basic cheese enchiladas at a new Mexican joint to see if it is worth a shit. From there you can expand out. Pattymelt with grilled Jalapeños is solid, Monterey Melt is a personal favorite.  Spicy ketchup is legit.

Triple meat. Mustard on both sides of the bun. Add grilled jalapeños and onions.

Rings instead of fries.

Strawberry shake and a glass of water.

Upvote. The San Felipe location is the last of the Mohicans. If you can eat it there, it’s a near guarantee you’ll get a good meal.
