The Game Day Pretzel Burger is a limited-time Burger King burger that costs $11.29 on its own and has 920 Cal. It’s a quarter-pound, 100% flame-grilled beef patty with nacho cheese sauce, bacon, melty American cheese, pickles, and crispy onions on a soft pretzel bun. As a combo it costs $15.89 for a small or medium and $16.49 for a large.
Since it’s only here for a limited time, it won’t stay on the menu forever, and Burger King hasn’t given an end date. The pretzel bun and the nacho cheese sauce on top of the American cheese are what make it different from a regular burger, and the numbers show how much goes into it.
Next to the Texas Whopper Jr. at $7.59 and 420 Cal, this burger costs $3.70 more and has 500 more calories. It also has more than twice the protein, 46 g against 21 g.

My Honest Take
This is a big burger, and it’s best to know that before you order. The sandwich alone is 920 Cal, which is a little under half of a 2,000-calorie day, and the sodium is 1,920 mg. The fat is 51 g, with 22 g of it saturated. A large combo with the heaviest side and drink can go past 2,000 Cal in one meal.
What you get in return is a lot of protein. 46 g is more than most of the breakfast meals, and more than double what the Texas Whopper Jr. has. The sodium is also 840 mg higher than that burger’s 1,080 mg. If you want to keep the total down, order just the sandwich and skip the combo. And because it’s a limited-time item, it’s worth trying sooner rather than later if you’re interested. Availability and prices can differ by store, so check Burger King’s official website or the app for what’s offered near you.
