SAN ANTONIO – A fast food restaurant that sells a nine-patty, nine-cheese hamburger is “going global” and making its way to South Texas.

Jake’s Wayback Burgers announced Wednesday that it will open 47 burger joints in South Texas under a franchisee based in Laredo.

President John Eucalitto said there are currently only four restaurants in Texas, including one in Laredo and three in Dallas.

He said he does not know of exact locations or time frames for the new restaurants, but San Antonio was included in the agreement.

“Sites have not been selected yet. He opened his first location in Laredo, and hopes to continue to grow,” Eucalitto said.

Wayback Burgers is based in Connecticut and serves burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches and milkshakes. Menu items include a Rodeo Burger, filled with onion rings; a BBQ Crunch Burger, topped off with homemade chips; and a Triple Triple Burger, which consists of a whopping nine patties and nine slices of cheese.

Eucalitto said the chain is spreading west across the U.S., as well as internationally. He added restaurants are currently under construction in Argentina and Saudi Arabia.
