A burger designed by the chain’s Facebook fans: a quarter-pound patty with crispy bacon, jalapeños, pepper jack and southwest ranch. Gently spicy and creamy, a good pick for anyone who finds the classic burgers plain. The same toppings come on a Spicy Jack Runza and a grilled chicken sandwich.

About Runza
Sally Everett opened a runza stand with her brother Alex in Lincoln, Nebraska, in 1949. The runza was her family’s version of the bierock, a yeast-dough pocket filled with seasoned ground beef, cabbage and onion that Volga German settlers brought to the Great Plains in the late nineteenth century. Her son Donald began expanding the business in 1966, franchising followed in 1979, and the Everett family still owns it.
About 85 restaurants, almost all of them in Nebraska, with a few in Iowa, Colorado and Kansas.
