BK Ham and Cheese — Secret Menu Hack & How to Order
The BK Ham and Cheese is a simple Burger King secret menu hack: ham and cheese served on a sesame seed bun, essentially a no-frills ham-and-cheese sandwich made from BK's breakfast ham and burger components. It's a low-key option for anyone who wants something other than beef or chicken, and because the BK Ham and Cheese uses ingredients already on hand, most locations can make it.
To order a BK Ham and Cheese, ask for ham and cheese on a sesame seed (Whopper-style) bun. Since it draws on the ham used in breakfast items, availability can depend on the time of day and whether the location has ham stocked. There's no fixed price — you're charged based on the components, so it's worth confirming the cost when you order.

How to order the BK Ham and Cheese
Ask for ham and cheese on a sesame seed bun. If the cashier is unsure, clarify that you'd like the breakfast ham with cheese on a regular burger bun. Because ham availability can be tied to breakfast service, ordering earlier in the day improves your odds. Add lettuce, tomato or condiments if you'd like to round it out into a fuller sandwich.
Is the BK Ham and Cheese worth it?
It's a niche pick, but a handy one if you want a lighter, beef-free, chicken-free option. Don't expect a deli-style club — it's a straightforward ham-and-cheese — but for the price of the components it's a reasonable, simple choice.
