The ButterBurger® Cheese is one of Culver’s original specialties. It features fresh, never-frozen beef, seared on a grill after you order, topped with real American Cheese made in Wisconsin, and served on a lightly buttered, toasted Kaiser bun. Unlike the Deluxe, it is a simple cheeseburger that does not automatically include vegetables (lettuce, tomato, etc.) or signature mayo.
The Value Basket includes the ButterBurger® Cheese sandwich, a medium Crinkle Cut Fries (standard side), and a medium Fountain Drink (standard beverage).
Calories (Standard Single/Double Sandwich Only)

FAQs
What is the difference between the ButterBurger® and the ButterBurger® Cheese?
The ButterBurger® is just a beef patty on a buttered bun. The ButterBurger® Cheese has the same burger but with a slice of real Wisconsin cheese.
Does the ButterBurger® Cheese come with toppings like ketchup and pickles?
No. It only comes with the patty, cheese, and bun. You must ask for toppings like ketchup, mustard, pickles, or onion.
What kind of bun does it have?
It comes on a lightly buttered, toasted Kaiser bun. You can ask for a different bun like sourdough or gluten-free if you want.
Can I pick a different cheese?
Yes. You can choose Cheddar or Swiss instead of American cheese. It may cost a little extra and change the calories.
Are the fries cooked in peanut oil?
No. Culver’s usually uses vegetable oils like soybean oil. It is normally safe for people with peanut allergies, but you can always check with the restaurant to be sure.
