At Burger King restaurants, we are always looking to expand our culinary creativity to continue to surprise our guests. That’s why, after finding the fundamental flaw in the traditional Philly Cheesesteak, we decided to launch the Philly Cheese King burger.

Burger King is bringing their flame grilling expertise to the traditional Philly cheesesteak recipe. The brand created this innovation based on the classic recipe, using more than half pound of flame-grilled 100 percent beef, caramelized onions and American Cheese.

Despite taste test approvals from Philadelphians, one restaurant in Philadelphia opted out of selling it completely to honor the traditional recipe. So, on October 25, the Philly Cheese King will not be sold at the BK restaurant located at 15 S 8th St, Philadelphia, PA 19106 until otherwise overturned by the Burger King brand.

The Philly Cheese King will be available at participating Burger King restaurants for a limited time beginning October 25 at a recommended price of $5.99.
