After learning about Wendy’s new Son of Baconator, I wondered if Wendy’s Double Stack and original Baconator<\/a> made greasy love to bring Son of Baconator to life.<\/p>\n

While the original Baconator uses four-ounce patties and has six strips of Applewood Smoked Bacon, Son of Baconator has two 2.25-ounce beef patties (the same ones used in Wendy’s Jr. burgers and the Double Stack), four strips of bacon, two slices of American cheese, ketchup, and mayo on a buttered toasted bun.<\/p>\n
