FAST FOOD NEWS: Burger King BBQ Bacon King

BK BBQ Bacon King

Rwgijfear h;er.

I imagine the amount of time it took for me to slam my fingers on my keyboard a couple of times to create the previous sentence of gobbeldyguke is the same amount of time it took for the BK test kitchens to come up with the new BBQ Bacon King.

Much like the chain’s original Bacon King, this new version features two 1/4 lb flame-grilled beef patties, thick-cut smoked bacon, two slices of American cheese, ketchup, and mayonnaise on a sesame seed bun. But the only difference between the two is a generous squirting of BBQ sauce.

The barbecue-ified Bacon King has 1100 calories, 75 grams of fat, 29 grams of saturated fat, 3 grams of trans fat, 220 milligrams of cholesterol, 1850 milligrams of sodium, 51 grams of carbohydrates, 13 grams of sugar, and 57 grams of protein.

I feel as if Pringles has had this flavor before. Or maybe I’m just confusing it with their Buffalo Ranch variety. (Spotted by Zane S at IGA.)

FAST FOOD NEWS: Arby’s To Bring Venison Sandwich To Nebraska

Arby s Venison Sandwich

Did you miss Arby’s Venison Sandwich when it was available at specific locations on specific days in specific states last year? If so, you have a chance to try the sandwich if you live near specific locations on specific days in a specific state. That state, my deer eating friends, is Nebraska — the Cornhusker State.

The hard-to-get sandwich features a thick-cut venison steak topped with crispy onion strings and juniper berry sauce on a toasted roll. We gave it a positive review last year.

The two following Nebraska locations will be offering the Venison Sandwich:

Wednesday, Jan. 18
5540 O ST
Lincoln, NE 68510

Thursday, Jan. 19
13610 W MAPLE RD
Omaha, NE 68164

Since the sandwich sold out in minutes at other locations, we’d highly suggest you go early to wait in the guaranteed line of people that’ll be waiting for those two Arby’s locations to open.

Good luck, Nebraskans!
