Instead, what you remember is last year\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2025\/03\/17\/burger-king-steakhouse-bacon-whopper-review\/\">Steakhouse Bacon Whopper<\/a>, which had a flame-grilled beef patty topped with bacon, two tomato slices, lettuce, Swiss cheese, crispy onions, A.1. Sauce, and a creamy peppercorn aioli between a sesame seed bun.<\/p>\n<p>This Ultimate Steakhouse Whopper does not feature all of the ingredients listed above, plus a few more to make it the \u201cultimate.\u201d Instead, it swaps the vegetables with onion rings and sauteed mushrooms, and leaves the A.1. Sauce off. But the bacon, Swiss, and peppercorn aioli are still there. Maybe this should\u2019ve been named Steakhouse Bacon Whopper 2?<\/p>\n<p>In my review of the Steakhouse Bacon Whopper, I wondered whether the peppercorn aioli could carry the entire burger\u2019s flavor, since the addition of A.1. Sauce made everything taste barbecue-y. Well, it turns out that while last year\u2019s version had a \u201cWestern\u201d barbecue flavor, the Ultimate Steakhouse  Whopper tastes like another burger variety \u2014 mushroom &#038; Swiss.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Steakhouse Bacon Whopper split\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-75056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr3.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr3.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Looking back at my previous reviews of Burger King menu items featuring mushrooms, their flavors ranged from too much to non-existent. With this Whopper, the \u2018shrooms make themselves known just the right amount, with the peppercorn aioli enhancing the savoriness of the \u2018shrooms and Swiss and adding a mild pepperiness. The sauce creates a noticeable difference from other mushroom &#038; Swiss burgers. So I guess I finally got my answer about the peppercorn aioli. It can carry an entire burger.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr2.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Almost Olympic rings number of onion rings in my Steakhouse Bacon Whopper \" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-75055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr2.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr2.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr2.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bkulisteakhwpr2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What didn\u2019t do any heavy lifting were the onion rings and bacon. While I was excited about the addition of onion rings, they didn\u2019t bring much taste, despite having six and a half rings in my order. Instead, they provided a bit of crunch and texture to contrast with the mostly soft ingredients, especially the squishy mushrooms. I\u2019m also surprised the bacon didn\u2019t bring its usual salty, smoky, and porky attributes, despite a sheet of it in my burger.<\/p>\n<p>The lack of flavor from the onion rings and bacon is a shame, because I think they would\u2019ve helped distance this burger even further from a mostly mushroom-and-Swiss-tasting offering than the peppercorn aioli. While it isn\u2019t ultimately unique, it\u2019s still a tasty menu item. However, the $13.99 I paid, which is more than many of you will pay, makes my stomach ache.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $13.99*<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 6 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> 1020 calories, 60 grams of fat, 20 grams of saturated fat, 1 gram of trans fat, 130 milligrams of cholesterol, 1950 milligrams of sodium, 77 grams of carbohydrates, 9 grams of fiber, 14 grams of sugar, and 44 grams of protein.<\/p>\n<p><em>*Because I live on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, things are a bit pricier here.
