Sheetz Made-To-Order Burger
The flagship Sheetz burger — a griddled beef patty built exactly the way you order it, from the bun down to the last drizzle of sauce, through the same Made-To-Order kiosks used for the rest of the food menu.

What Is the Sheetz Made-To-Order Burger?
The Made-To-Order Burger is the item most people picture when they think of Sheetz food, and it's the base recipe that the rest of the burger lineup builds off of. It starts with a griddled beef patty, cooked to order rather than held under a heat lamp, which is one of the bigger differences between a convenience-store burger and this one. From there, everything is a choice: you pick the bun, the cheese, and work through a list of toppings that runs from the standard lettuce-tomato-onion combination to pickles, jalapeños, bacon, and a handful of sauces that range from a classic burger sauce to spicier options depending on what your store stocks that week.
What sets it apart from a fast-food burger isn't any single ingredient — it's the ordering flow. You build the whole thing on a touchscreen kiosk or in the Sheetz app before it ever reaches a cook, so nothing gets assembled and then picked apart. If you want double meat, no bun, extra cheese, or a completely bare patty with just mustard, the system is built to handle that without slowing anyone down. That flexibility is also why the calorie count listed here is a baseline number for the standard single-patty build — add toppings and it climbs from there, sometimes by a meaningful amount depending on how loaded you go.
Price & Why It Can Vary
The listed starting price of $5.99 covers a basic single-patty burger with a standard topping set. It's rarely the number you'll actually see on your receipt, though, because the MTO Burger is priced as a build rather than a fixed plate.
Every extra you tap in the app — a second patty, additional cheese, bacon, a premium sauce — adds a small amount to the subtotal, so a fully loaded double can end up costing quite a bit more than the entry price. Store-to-store pricing differences also play a role, since Sheetz adjusts menu pricing regionally based on local costs, meaning the same exact burger build might ring up differently an hour down the highway. Seasonal promotions and app-only deals can shift the price temporarily as well. Because of all that movement, the app's order screen is the only place that shows a truly accurate, build-specific total before you check out.

These figures are approximate and reflect a standard single-patty build. Adding a second patty, extra cheese or bacon will noticeably change the total — check the Sheetz app or kiosk nutrition panel for a build-specific number. See our full Nutrition & Calories guide for more items.
Why the Made-To-Order Burger Stands Out
- Cooked to order, not held. Griddled fresh per order instead of sitting under a heat lamp, which changes the texture noticeably from a typical convenience-store burger.
- The base recipe for the whole burger lineup. Every other burger on the menu, including the Sh'tacked Burger and Sliderz, starts from this same patty and build logic.
- Total control over the build. Bun, cheese, protein count and every topping are optional, so you can build anything from a bare patty to a fully loaded double.
- Predictable starting calorie count. At roughly 250 calories for the standard single-patty build, it's an easy item to budget calories around before you start adding extras.
How to Order This Item
In-Store Kiosk: Look under the MTO or Burgers tab, tap Made-To-Order Burger, then work through bun, cheese, and topping screens before sending the order to the grill.
Mobile App: Build your exact burger ahead of time in the Sheetz app, save it as a favorite for repeat orders, and skip the kiosk line at pickup.
Delivery: Offered through partner delivery apps at many stores; since a burger holds up better than most fried items on a short ride, it's one of the more delivery-friendly picks on the MTO menu.
I've ordered the Made-To-Order Burger dozens of times now, and the build screen is genuinely faster than I expected once you know where the sauce options are hiding. My usual is a single patty with pepper jack, no lettuce, extra pickles — a combo I never would've gotten right at a regular fast-food counter without repeating myself twice. One thing worth knowing: if you're in a rush, ordering ahead in the app shaves several minutes off versus building it fresh at the kiosk during a lunch rush.
Quick Questions
How many patties come on the standard MTO Burger?
The standard build is a single patty. If you want more beef, you can add a second patty at the kiosk or in the app, or step up to the Sh'tacked Burger, which is built as a double from the start.
Can I get the MTO Burger without a bun?
Yes. The kiosk and app let you remove or swap the bun, which is a common request from customers watching carbs. You can also swap in a different bread option where available at your store.
What's the difference between the MTO Burger and the Sh'tacked Burger?
The MTO Burger is a single-patty build meant to be a lighter, standard burger, while the Sh'tacked Burger is built from the start as a two-patty, extra-cheese sandwich. You can turn the MTO Burger into something closer to a double by adding a second patty, but the Sh'tacked Burger's toppings and sauce are proportioned for the bigger build already.
Can I order the MTO Burger through the mobile app?
Yes. It's fully customizable through the Sheetz app, the in-store kiosk, and delivery through partner apps where available, with the same build options at every ordering method.
Does the calorie count change a lot with toppings?
It can. The listed ~250 calories reflects a standard single-patty build; a second patty, extra cheese, or bacon can add up quickly, so check the kiosk or app nutrition panel for a build-specific number if you're tracking calories closely.
