I ranked 5 Burger King cheeseburgers from worst to best. The winner was a great value.

I ranked five of Burger King's most popular cheeseburgers, and the chain's signature burger was the most impressive.

Erin McDowell/Business Insider I tried five cheeseburgers from Burger King , including the Whopper and the Bacon King.

I thought the Triple Whopper was less flavorful than some of the smaller, cheaper burgers.

The Whopper impressed me with its flame-grilled patty and classic cheeseburger toppings.

It's National Cheeseburger Day, and I've been around the burger block.

Of all the fast-food burgers I've tried, Burger King's cheesy, flame-grilled burgers consistently rank among my favorites.

Burger King has sold cheeseburgers since its inception in the 1950s , according to an original menu reported by Delish , but exactly how the chain makes them has changed considerably.

The chain started with simple broiled cheeseburgers, but now the Burger King menu includes cheeseburger melts, several variations on its classic Whopper, chicken sandwiches, nuggets, fries, and more.

To determine which Burger King burger reigns supreme, I compared five different cheeseburgers from the chain.

I tried the classic — yet recently updated — Whopper with cheese, the Triple Whopper with cheese, a plain cheeseburger, a double cheeseburger, and the Bacon King.

Here's how the burgers ranked, from my least favorite to my favorite.

My least favorite cheeseburger was the classic plain cheeseburger.
