Highest and lowest

Hamburger and Jr. burgers ranked by calories, protein and sodium

These charts rank all 5 burgers in this guide, from the brand’s 2026 nutrition PDF. All amounts are the brand’s published values for one burger, and the burgers differ in weight, so a larger burger is not a worse or better choice by itself.

Calories in each burger
  • Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger470
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger440
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack400
  • Cheeseburger370
  • Hamburger330

The range is 330 to 470 calories, so the biggest of the five is 1.4 times the Hamburger.

Protein in each burger (g)
  • Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger18 g
  • Cheeseburger16 g
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger16 g
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack14 g
  • Hamburger13 g

Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger has the most (18 g), and Cheeseburger gives the most protein for its calories at 4.3 g per 100 calories.

Sodium (% of the 2,300 mg Daily Value)
  • Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger43%
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger39%
  • Cheeseburger38%
  • Hamburger30%
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack30%

4 Hamburgers would come to 118% of the sodium Daily Value. The FDA treats 20% or more as high, and 5 of 5 burgers are at or above that.

  • Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger45%
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger40%
  • Cheeseburger35%
  • Jr. Jumbo Jack30%

Burgers differ in weight, so check the serving row before comparing totals. Dollar differences are left out on purpose, because prices are estimates that vary by restaurant.

What changes

Hamburger vs Cheeseburger vs Jr. Jumbo Jack: what each step adds

Every row subtracts one burger from another using the brand’s published amounts, so it shows what changes without guessing why. A plus sign means the second burger has more. The PDF gives amounts per burger, not per ingredient, so it cannot say which component adds what.

The only difference in the name is the cheese. The brand lists no extra allergen for Cheeseburger.

The brand’s release describes it as “100% beef seasoned as it grills, tomato, pickle, lettuce, onions, ketchup & mayo.” (Jack in the Box Gives Big Value Energy with New Jack's Munchies Under $4 Menu, May 29, 2024). It is a different build from the Hamburger, and the PDF does not break it down. The brand lists egg for Jr. Jumbo Jack and not for Hamburger.

What the brand says is in them

What is on a Jack in the Box hamburger? Beef patty, bun and toppings

The brand’s Ingredient & Allergen Statements 2026 document prints ingredient statements per component (a patty, a bun, a sauce), not per menu item, and gives no percentages. Below is a plain-English reading, what the brand and other sites say each burger comes with, then the statements word for word.

Is it 100% beef?

The regular patty statement on page 1 of the ingredient PDF reads, in full, “Beef”, which is 1 ingredient. The brand’s release describes the Jr. burgers as “100% beef seasoned as it grills”, and the PDF does not say which burgers use this patty, so linking it to the Hamburger is our reading of the menu copy.

Bun, mayo, cheese and bacon

The regular bun is printed in 2 versions, and 1 of them mention sesame, and soy appears in the bun wording. The mayonnaise statement lists egg. The American cheese statement lists milk. The bacon statement lists sodium nitrite, a curing ingredient. The PDF does not map components to burgers.

What other sites say, not verified

  • Hamburger: “100% beef seasoned as it grills with one pickle, ketchup & mustard on a toasted buttery bakery bun.”Quoted by caloriecap.com, jackintheboxmnu.net and jackintheboxmenuus.com. Three sites quote the same menu copy word for word. We could not open the brand's own Hamburger page to confirm it, so we treat this as quoted, not verified.

The patty

One statement covers the regular patty used for the smaller burgers. It does not say which burger uses it, so that link is the brand's menu copy and our reading.

The bun

The regular bun is printed in two versions, which the brand says vary by region or supplier.

Allergens and diet

Jack in the Box hamburger allergens: milk, wheat, soy and sesame on every one

“Contains” here is the union of the brand’s nutrition PDF and its Allergens Reference Guide, so if either document lists an allergen, it is shown. A blank means neither lists it, which is not the same as a promise that it is absent.

Allergens the brand lists for each Jack in the Box hamburger and junior burger, and whether its two documents agree
BurgerMilkWheatSoySesameEggBrand documents
HamburgerContains MilkContains WheatContains SoyContains SesameNot listedBoth documents agree
CheeseburgerContains MilkContains WheatContains SoyContains SesameNot listedBoth documents agree
Jr. Jumbo JackContains MilkContains WheatContains SoyContains SesameContains EggBoth documents agree
Jr. Jumbo Jack CheeseburgerContains MilkContains WheatContains SoyContains SesameContains EggBoth documents agree
Jr. Bacon CheeseburgerContains MilkContains WheatContains SoyContains SesameContains EggBoth documents agree

What this means

  • Every one of the 5 burgers lists milk, wheat, soy and sesame, so none works if you avoid them.
  • Egg is listed on 3 of 5: Jr. Jumbo Jack, Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger and Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger. Hamburger and Cheeseburger do not list egg. The brand's mayonnaise statement lists egg, and its release names mayo among the Jr. Jumbo Jack's toppings.
  • The Hamburger is not described with cheese, yet it lists milk, so milk comes from something other than a cheese slice. The brand’s documents do not say which component. Of the 2 printed versions of the regular bun statement, 1 mentions sesame, which fits the brand's note that buns can contain sesame in some regions.
  • Both documents cover every burger.
  • None of the 5 burgers lists fish, peanuts, tree nuts and crustacean shellfish.
  • The brand’s documents make no gluten-free, dairy-free or vegan claim for any of these burgers.

Where the two documents disagree

The two documents agree on all 5 burgers. That means they list the same allergens, not that either is a guarantee.

We show the union, so a burger lists an allergen if either document does.

The brand’s own cross-contact notice

“Like most restaurants, Jack in the Box restaurants prepare and serve products that contain Soy, Egg, Fish, Milk, Wheat, and Sesame. While a particular ingredient statement may not list one of these allergens, products may be prepared with equipment that is shared with products containing one or more of these allergens. If you have a food allergy, please consult with your physician before deciding which Jack in the Box products are right for you, and check the allergen information frequently as the menu and ingredients may change.”

Quoted from the Allergens Reference Guide. Ask the restaurant about your allergy before you order.

Price

How much does a Jack in the Box hamburger cost? Estimated prices

Price varies by location. Jack in the Box does not publish national menu prices, and restaurants, many of them franchises, set their own. This is an estimate, not a quote: the median pickup price from Drive Thru Index (opens in a new tab)’s sample of 2,064 to 2,064 restaurants as of November 11, 2026, with the lowest and highest the sample found. That sample covers 4 of the 5 burgers, so for Cheeseburger we show no price instead of guessing one.

Estimated lowest, typical and highest pickup price for each Jack in the Box hamburger that has a reliable sample
BurgerLowestTypicalHighestRestaurants
Hamburger$1.59$2.49$3.792,064
CheeseburgerPrice varies by location
Jr. Jumbo Jack$2.19$2.89$4.492,064
Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger$2.39$3.19$4.792,064
Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger$2.39$3.19$4.992,064

Cheapest and priciest we can price

Of the 4 burgers with a price, the Hamburger is the lowest typical estimate at $2.49 and the Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger is the highest at $3.19, a gap of $0.70. Across every restaurant sampled, single prices ran from $1.59 to $4.99.

Value for the money

Of those 4, the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger gives more protein per dollar (5.6 g, against 4.8 g for the Jr. Jumbo Jack) and the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger more calories per dollar (147). This is arithmetic on an estimate, so it is only as good as the price you actually pay. We do not rank Cheeseburger on value, because we have no price for it.

The same burger costs different amounts by state

Drive Thru Index (November 6, 2026) lists a typical Hamburger price of $1.99 in Texas, $2.59 in California and $3.29 in Washington, so the cheapest state listed is Texas and the highest is Washington, a gap of $1.30. Drive Thru Index reports pickup prices from each restaurant's ordering app. It is also the source of the price estimates on this page, so this is a closer look at the same data, not a second opinion.

Why your price may differ

For example, the Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger ranged $2.39–$4.79 across the sample. These are pickup prices from the brand’s ordering app, so they are a guide, not what your restaurant will charge. The ordering page for your own restaurant or its menu board has the real price.

Jr. Cheeseburger and Hamburger Combo: names not in the 2026 PDFs

People search for the Jr. Cheeseburger and the Hamburger Combo, and the brand’s 2026 nutrition and allergen PDFs do not list them. So the figures below are reported, not verified: they come from the websites named in each card, with the date and restaurant where the site gives them. They are kept out of the labels, charts, rankings and totals elsewhere on this page, and we show no allergens for them.

Name not in the 2026 PDFs

Jr. Cheeseburger

The brand's May 29, 2024 release lists a Jr. Cheeseburger: 100% beef seasoned as it grills, melty American cheese, ketchup and mayo. Two sites list a Jr. Cheeseburger at 370 calories. The 2026 PDFs have no row with that name. They do have a Cheeseburger, also 370 calories, but the release describes mayo, the brand's mayonnaise statement lists egg, and the PDFs list no egg for the Cheeseburger. We cannot tell whether these are the same burger, so we do not assume it. We show no label and no allergens for this listing.

The prices given, $2.69 to $2.79, come from sites that name one restaurant or none, and may not match yours.

One site lists a Hamburger Combo on its kids menu table at $4.59 and 330 to 660 calories, a range that depends on the side and drink chosen. The brand's PDFs cover single items and sides, not combos, so we show no label and no allergens. To size a meal yourself, use the calculator, which adds the rows the brand does publish.

Checking the numbers

Why other sites list different hamburger calories

Every figure on this page comes from the brand’s 2026 nutrition PDF. We also read 4 other sites. Of 10 calorie figures, 7 match the PDF and 3 differ, by up to 50 calories. For 0 of the 4 burgers they list, the PDF lists more calories than every one of those sites.

A slash means a site lists two figures for the same burger, and a dash means the site does not list it. The PDF is higher than every site for none of the burgers.

Says its figures come from the brand's online menu for one Los Angeles restaurant (pickup), checked October 16, 2026. Its Jr. Cheeseburger row is covered under the reported listings, not here.

fastfoodnutrition.org (opens in a new tab)

Names no check date or menu edition. It lists a 105 g Hamburger with 280 calories and 11 g of fat, against 108 g, 330 calories and 18 g in the 2026 PDF, so it looks like an older recipe or serving.

Which number we use

The PDF, everywhere. It is the brand’s own published national nutrition document, we can open it and check it, and it is the only source that also gives fat, sodium, cholesterol, carbs and protein for each burger. A restaurant’s ordering page is one location’s view, and we cannot tell from outside why two sources differ. If your restaurant shows a different number, trust what it shows you.

Limits of this comparison

We read these sites' pages on November 10, 2026. Most do not say which menu edition or restaurant their numbers come from, so we cannot tell why they differ from the brand's PDF. The point is to show you the spread, not to rank sites.

We matched figures to a burger only where a site uses the brand’s own name for it. The Jr. Cheeseburger has no row in the PDFs, so we compare no figures for it and cover it under reported items.

Choosing

What to order: hamburger meals, sodium and daily limits

The right pick depends on what you care about most. Everything below is simple arithmetic on the brand’s published amounts, not nutrition advice.

If you want fewer calories

  • Fewest: Hamburger, 330 calories, with 13 g of protein. The most is Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger at 470.
  • The lowest is 17% of a 2,000-calorie day, and the highest is 24%.

If sodium matters

  • The least is the Hamburger at 680 mg (30% of the 2,300 mg Daily Value), and the most is Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger at 1,000 mg (43%). The FDA treats 20% or more in one serving as high.
  • 4 Hamburger burgers add up to 118% of the sodium Daily Value, and a medium order of fries adds 780 mg.

If you want protein

  • The top three by grams are Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger (18 g in 470 calories), Cheeseburger (16 g in 370 calories), Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger (16 g in 440 calories).
  • For protein per calorie, the Cheeseburger leads at 4.3 g per 100 calories.

If you are ordering for a child

The brand files Hamburger and Cheeseburger under its Kids menu section as well as Burgers & More, and the other 3 burgers are not filed there. The nutrition PDF gives one set of amounts for each row, so there is no separate smaller kids version. Check the allergen chart if your child has an allergy.

This page covers the 5 hamburger-style burgers in the PDFs. The brand’s burger category has 14 items in all, and the others are Bacon Double Smashed Jack, Bacon & Swiss Buttery Jack, Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger, Classic Buttery Jack, Classic Smashed Jack, Double Jack, Jumbo Jack, Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger, Sourdough Jack and Ultimate Cheeseburger. They are on the burgers page, and their calories are in the nutrition facts tables.

FAQ

Jack in the Box hamburger questions

How many calories are in a Jack in the Box hamburger?

The Hamburger is 330 calories for 108 g in the brand's 2026 nutrition PDF, with 13 g of protein, 18 g of fat, 30 g of carbohydrate and 680 mg of sodium (30% of the Daily Value). That is 17% of a 2,000-calorie day. Other sites list 280 to 340 calories for it, so we use the PDF and show the comparison further down.

How much does a Jack in the Box hamburger cost?

Price varies by location, so treat this as an estimate. The Hamburger is typically $2.49, with single restaurants ranging from $1.59 to $3.79, sampled across 2,064 restaurants by Drive Thru Index (pickup prices as of November 11, 2026). By state, Texas is typically $1.99, California is typically $2.59, Washington is typically $3.29, as of November 6, 2026.

Is the Jack in the Box hamburger 100% beef?

The brand's menu copy, as three sites quote it, says "100% beef seasoned as it grills with one pickle, ketchup & mustard on a toasted buttery bakery bun." We could not open the brand's own Hamburger page to confirm that wording. What we can read is the brand's ingredient statement for the regular beef patty, which lists one ingredient: beef. The statement does not say which burgers use that patty, so the link to the Hamburger is the menu copy and our reading.

What comes on a Jack in the Box hamburger?

Quoted menu copy describes the Hamburger as a beef patty with one pickle, ketchup and mustard on a toasted bun. The brand's own release describes the Jr. Jumbo Jack as "100% beef seasoned as it grills, tomato, pickle, lettuce, onions, ketchup & mayo." and the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger as "100% beef seasoned as it grills, hickory smoked bacon, melty American cheese, ketchup & mayo." The 2026 PDFs print the ingredients of each component but do not say which burger uses which, so ask your restaurant or check the Jack app for what is on yours today.

What is the difference between a Jack in the Box Hamburger and a Cheeseburger?

In the PDF the Cheeseburger is 370 calories against 330 for the Hamburger, which is 40 more. It has 3 more g of protein, 3 more g of fat and 200 more mg of sodium (38% of the Daily Value against 30%), and the serving weighs 12 more g. Both list the same allergens, milk included, so the slice of cheese does not add a new one.

What is the difference between the Hamburger and the Jr. Jumbo Jack?

The Jr. Jumbo Jack is 400 calories against 330 for the Hamburger, which is 70 more, with 7 more g of fat, 1 more g of protein and 20 more mg of sodium. It weighs 43 more g more. It also lists egg, which the brand's release explains with mayo among its toppings; the Hamburger does not list it. The brand's release lists tomato, pickle, lettuce, onions, ketchup and mayo on the Jr. Jumbo Jack, though the PDF does not weigh the toppings separately.

What does the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger add?

Against the Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger, the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger is 470 calories against 440, which is 30 more, with 2 more g of protein, 100 more mg of sodium and a serving that is 32 fewer g. Its sodium is 43% of the Daily Value, the highest of the 5 burgers on this page. The Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger is 40 more calories against the plain Jr. Jumbo Jack.

How much sodium and protein are in a Jack in the Box hamburger?

The Hamburger has 680 mg of sodium, 30% of the 2,300 mg Daily Value, and 13 g of protein. Across the 5 burgers sodium runs from 680 mg (Hamburger) to 1,000 mg (Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger), and protein from 13 g to 18 g. The FDA treats 20% or more of a Daily Value as high, and 5 of the 5 do.

What allergens are in a Jack in the Box hamburger?

The Hamburger lists milk, wheat, soy, and sesame. All 5 burgers list milk, wheat, soy, and sesame. Egg is listed on 3 of 5: Jr. Jumbo Jack, Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger, and Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger. The brand notes buns can contain sesame in some regions and that equipment can be shared. The brand's two documents agree on all of them, and we show the union so an allergen appears if either lists it. Ask your restaurant if you have an allergy.

Is the Hamburger on the Jack in the Box kids menu?

The brand's PDF files Hamburger and Cheeseburger under Kids as well as under Burgers & More. The other 3 burgers on this page are listed under Burgers & More and Jack's deals instead. It is the same row either way, so the figures here do not change with the listing.

Why do other websites list different calories for the Jack in the Box Hamburger?

We compared 10 calorie figures from 4 other sites with the brand's PDF. 7 match and 3 differ, by up to 50 calories. For the Hamburger, sites list 280 to 340 against 330 in the PDF. Most do not say which menu edition or restaurant they used, and one lists a 105 g serving, so an older recipe is a likely reason. We do not pick a winner; the PDF is the brand's own document.

Is there a Jack in the Box Jr. Cheeseburger?

The brand's May 29, 2024 release lists a Jr. Cheeseburger, and two sites list one at 370 calories. The 2026 PDFs have no row with that name. They have a Cheeseburger at 370 calories, but the release describes mayo on the Jr. Cheeseburger, the brand's mayonnaise statement lists egg, and the PDFs list no egg for the Cheeseburger, so we do not treat them as the same burger and show no label for the Jr. Cheeseburger.

How many calories are in a Jack in the Box hamburger and fries?

A Hamburger and a medium French Fries are 760 calories together by our arithmetic on the brand's two rows: 330 plus 430. That is 38% of a 2,000-calorie day and 1,460 mg of sodium, with no drink added. The calculator adds a drink and any other rows. One site lists a Hamburger Combo, but combos are not rows in the PDFs, so we do not show one here.

How we built this

Sources and method

Reviewed November 10, 2026. Every number on this page is read from our data files, which are copied from the documents below, and not typed by hand.

Brand news releases we read

Other websites we compared

Their figures are compared with the brand’s PDF and never replace it.

Method and limits

  • Calories, fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrate, sugars and protein are the brand’s own published amounts for each of the 5 burger rows. We do not adjust them, and none of the rows is one we have flagged as looking wrong.
  • “% of a day” divides calories by 2,000. Sodium, cholesterol and saturated fat percentages use the U.S. FDA Daily Values of 2,300 mg, 300 mg and 20 g, and are calculated by this site because the brand prints amounts only.
  • Allergens are the union of the nutrition PDF and the Allergens Reference Guide, which is the cautious reading. If a row is in only one of them, or the two disagree, the page says so.
  • Prices are estimates from Drive Thru Index’s sample as of November 11, 2026, and only 4 of the 5 burgers have one. Ratios such as protein per dollar are arithmetic on those estimates.
  • Ingredient statements are the brand’s own words. The PDF does not map them to menu items, so any reading of one is our judgment, stated where it is used.
  • Names that other sites use are matched to the brand’s rows only where the page says so. Names that are not in the 2026 PDFs, such as the Jr. Cheeseburger, are not matched to any row. Reported figures for them come from the named websites, are labelled as reported, and are never mixed into the label, charts, rankings or totals.
  • The burger pictures are original illustrations drawn for this site, not photographs of the product.
