Oh, Canada. A chain eatery from our neighbor to the north has come up with the ultimate meaty-sweet indulgence: a decadent Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup-stuffed burger that’s, well, totally nuts.
The Reese PBC burger — from The Works Gourmet Burger Bistro in Ontario — features a half-pound beef patty stuffed with Reese’s, and then topped with smoked bacon, crispy onion strings, and yes, even more Reese’s. It’s one of three new Get Stuff’d burgers on the menu, which already boasts more than 52 “Gourmet Burgs.”
Fans on the restaurant’s Facebook page have praised the chocolatey creation, calling it “so good,” “delicious,” and “awesome.” According to one comment, you can also order a Reese’s-topped veggie burger, though the patty won’t actually have the candy inside.
Reactions on Twitter were a little more mixed.
Don’t want to hear you being smug & self-righteous about the USA again, Canada, with your Reese’s Cup stuffed burger pic.twitter.com/HzZNgQC9fl

OK I’m probably alone in this but my first response to this is not “EW.” It’s more “I’m intrigued; tell me more.” https://t.co/TylGVaCrSN

Ontario has a burger place that stuffs their burgers with Reese’s. I wonder how fast @RalphieeLove will be in Canada.

If anyone in Canada actually TRIES that Reese’s PBC burger at The Works, report back? https://t.co/T3fznVM5sn pic.twitter.com/90NtAE7bjN

If the Reese PBC isn’t your jam, The Works also introduced the Burgeroni and the Loaded Lucy. The former features a chorizo-stuffed beef patty topped with pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and onion strings, while the latter contains a cheese-stuffed beef patty with bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles, red onions, and mayo.
