One Simple Request Makes Burger King Whoppers Taste Fresher Than Ever

Did you know you can get the best Burger King Whopper by following a simple ordering tip? This request, according to food influencers and Redditors, will make your next Whopper taste delicious and fresher. See, what you want to do is to order it "hot off the broiler." You can do this the next time you pull up to the drive-thru or place a digital order. Just be prepared, as you may need to wait a few extra minutes for your order. This is because Burger King will make your burger fresh with a patty off the grill, rather than giving you one that's been sitting on the warming tray. 

Since this option is officially on Burger King's website and the staff should be familiar with it, don't be shy. Go ahead and make the request. It's a free "upgrade," and a broiler-fresh Whopper feels less soggy and has beef that is still warm with cheese that's nice and melty. Temperature is one of 13 factors that influence your food perception, and hot burgers simply taste better than cold ones.

Over on Reddit, commenters say asking for a Whopper "hot off the broiler" does not annoy the staff. Of course, it helps to be clear and polite when you're making the request in person. One commenter does suggest you ask the cashier for a "fresh Whopper" if there's any confusion as to what "hot off the broiler" means. Additionally, be understanding if you come across a location that is understaffed. There, the staff may miss your request even if you've ordered it correctly, especially when they're busy.

Other things you can ask for are extra pickles, additional onions, or even having your Whopper cut in half. All these requests come with no extra charge. After all, according to Burger King, you should have a Whopper your way, as "you rule" is its new tagline.
