Yep, the original "sliders". Before Mike Tyson started eating dude's ears, Evander Holyfield did the commercials for Burger Buddies (around '91-93)

In 1987, Burger King offered a set of miniature burgers called Burger Bundles. The Burger Bundles were sold in a set of three or six, much like White Castle or Krystal burgers, but served in a single package. The sandwich was reintroduced in a slightly different format called Burger Buddies. Instead of three or six miniature hamburger patties, it had a single number eight shaped patty that was served on a pair of co-joined buns. The sandwich was sold for 99¢ and was designed to be torn into two smaller sandwiches. There was a breakfast version of the Burger Buddies called the Breakfast Buddies that had eggs, cheese and a sausage patty, again for 99¢. Breakfast menus at the time also began selling mini hash-browns, which resemble Tater Tots.
The Big King was Burger King's response to McDonald's Big Mac and has a similar style and taste. The Big King was replaced in the U.S. by a similar product, the King Supreme, which was also later discontinued. The Big King is, however, still available in Argentina, Brazil, Sweden, Germany, Austria, The Netherlands and the UK and Ireland. The King Supreme is still available in Canada.
The Chicken Whopper was the replacement to the BK Broiler sandwich. There were two types, the Chicken Whopper and the smaller sized Chicken Whopper Jr. Both featured grilled chicken, mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato and were served on a sesame-seed bun. The Chicken Whopper is still available in parts of Europe and the Middle East. It was supplanted by the TenderGrill in the US and other regions.
The Bull's-eye Barbecue Burger was two side-by-side hamburger patties, American cheese and bacon with Bull's-eye Barbecue brand barbecue sauce served on steak roll. Later it was sold as a traditional style double cheeseburger. BK Chile sells a similar sandwich family called the X-tra Long Tocino Queso (X-tra long bacon cheese) made with American and Cheddar cheeses, bacon, lettuce and tomato. BK Middle East and Europe offers a similar sandwich called the BK Limo sandwich that is served with three patties, American cheese, pickles, ketchup and mustard.
The BK Grillers were a line of burgers that featured a spiced and flavored patty served on a bakery style roll. There were two varieties: The Regular served with mayonnaise, whole leaf iceberg lettuce, tomato and grilled onions and the Bacon Cheddar with bacon and smoked cheddar cheese. There was one LTO variety, the Black Stack Griller made with Black Strap Barbecue sauce (a strong molasses flavored sauce), bacon, lettuce and tomato. The Griller patty was flavored so that it had a taste similar to a hamburger that had been grilled over a charcoal fired grill.
In 1993, Burger King experimented with table service. After 4 PM, customers would place their order at the counter, and their order would be brought to them at their table.Customers were given complimentary popcorn to eat while waiting for their meal. To coincide with the offering,a series of Meals called the Dinner baskets were introduced.The dinner baskets included the Whopper Dinner Basket, Steak Sandwich Dinner Basket, Fried Chicken Dinner Basket, and Shrimp Dinner Basket. In the New England region of the US, BK sold a Fried clam Basket. The dinner came with two sides, including a choice of a side salad, cole slaw, french fries, or baked potato. The sit-down restaurant concept was abandoned in 1994 in favor of the original quick-service formula.
