Smokehouse Burger Nutrition and Calories
Cheddar’s official nutrition guide lists the Smokehouse Burger at 1,040 calories, with 55 grams of fat and 57 grams of protein. The ordering menu shows the burger at 1,000 calories with the fries (460 calories in the guide) listed separately — a small gap between Cheddar’s two official sources; the table below uses the printed guide panel exactly as published. Two numbers define this burger’s panel: sugars at 35 grams, second only to the Monte Cristo in this section and almost all of it from the BBQ sauce, and sodium at 2,920 mg, the highest of the three half-pound burgers.

What to Pair With the Smokehouse Burger
Wisconsin Cheese Bites open the meal in proper burger-joint style. The lightly battered white cheddar bites with marinara or homemade ranch are easy to share while the grill does its work.
Homemade Onion Rings match the burger’s own sautéed onions with the crispy kind. The hand-battered, golden-fried rings are the classic partner to a BBQ-sauced burger and fries.
Hot Fudge Cake Sundae is the sweet finish the smokehouse flavours point toward. After BBQ sauce, bacon and fries, the warm hot fudge cake sundae is the classic Cheddar’s dessert to split.
What Puts the Smokehouse in the Smokehouse Burger
Three choices separate this burger from the Classic build. First, the BBQ sauce replaces the plain condiment role with a sweet, smoky layer — you can see it directly in the panel, where sugars jump to 35 grams against the Classic Cheeseburger’s 8. Second, the onions arrive sautéed rather than raw, so they read sweet and soft instead of sharp. Third, the bacon is joined by that sauce rather than standing alone, which is why this burger lands between the Classic (830) and the Bacon Cheeseburger (1,100) on calories despite also carrying bacon and cheddar.
It is also the one burger here built without lettuce, so the texture runs rich end to end — patty, bacon, cheese, sauce, soft onions. If you want the smokehouse flavour with a fresher bite, the tomato and pickles are the crisp elements doing that work. And like the other half-pounders, it is cooked to your pick of six temperatures, with Medium the kitchen default.
Nutrition and Allergen Considerations
At 1,040 calories in the guide panel, the Smokehouse Burger is a full burger meal, and its 2,920 mg of sodium is the figure to notice first if you are tracking salt. On allergens, the official guide flags it as a grilled item and lists soy, dairy (milk), wheat and gluten. Cheddar’s warns that its kitchens use shared cooking and preparation areas, so cross-contact can occur and items cooked on the grill carry a special risk. It cannot guarantee that any menu item is completely free of allergens.
