Neighborhood
Applebee's Neighborhood burger is a double-decker burger with melted American cheese, garlic-mayo, and plentiful pickles that added a fantastic tangy element.
All of the Applebee's burgers have a signature seasoning blend that brings out the savory flavor of the meat, and the entree costs around $15 without upgrades like bacon.
Double Oldtimer
Chili's two-patty cheeseburger, the Double Oldtimer, costs $17.50. It also has plenty of pickles for some zing, and overall, it was
a very balanced burger.
Classics Winner
The Oldtimer burger is quite a bit larger than the Neighborhood burger, making the value hard
to beat. The patty is a bit less flavorful, but it’s barely noticeable.
Whole Lotta Bacon
This Applebee's burger has bacon seared into the patty and three strips on top, which were nicely crispy. It’s very salty but well-seasoned, and costs around $17.
Bacon Rancher
This Chili's burger has two beef patties, six slices of bacon, cheese and ranch for a bit of zest, sauteed onions for a little sweetness, plus pickles for tang.
The bacon slices were a bit hard to wrangle and kept sliding off the burger, but they were layered well, giving you bacon in every bite. The burger costs just under $19.50.
