Big Double vs Regular Burger, Which Has More Meat?
This is the question regulars ask most. Many Cook Out fans on Reddit say the Big Double uses about the same amount of beef as the Regular 1/4 lb burger, split into two thinner patties. Cook Out’s own numbers back that up.
| Big Double | Regular (1/4 lb) | Huge (1/2 lb) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calories (nutrition guide) | 311 | 328 | 516 |
| Calories (menu board) | 330 | 330 | 520 |
| Protein | 20 g | 22 g | 40 g |
| Fat | 13 g | 14 g | 26 g |
| Price | $2.99 to $4.39 | $2.79 to $4.39 | $3.39 |
So what do you get with the Big Double? Two thinner, more char-grilled patties with more crispy edges, for about the same calories as a Regular. If you want more beef, the Huge Burger is the one, with twice the protein of a Regular.
Calories, protein and fat are from Cook Out’s nutrition guide and menu board. The guide lists the Big Double at 311 calories, a little lower than the Regular, so we use the menu board’s 330 across this site.
