Schaumburg Burgers Made with 50/50 Bacon-Beef Patties
Every Frato’s specialty burger starts with our signature 50/50 patty: half Black Angus beef, half smoked apple bacon, ground together and hand-formed daily, never frozen. An all-beef patty is also available.
The 50/50 difference
Half Black Angus beef. Half smoked apple bacon. One patty.
Our culinary students grind smoked apple bacon into fresh Black Angus beef and hand-form the patties every day. As the patty cooks, the bacon melts through the beef and seasons every bite from the inside out.
Because of the bacon, a 50/50 patty can look pink in the middle. All burgers are cooked medium-well.

“The Chicago Prime Rib Burger is insane. You can tell the patties are handmade, and stacking prime rib on top? Genius. Worth every penny.”
★★★★★
“The I’m Fat Burger lives up to the hype. Mac and cheese, pulled pork, bacon-beef patties — it’s ridiculous in the best way. Bring your appetite.”
★★★★★
“I searched ‘burgers near me’ and found Frato’s. Now it’s my go-to. The Whiskey Burger with that bourbon sauce is on another level.”
