\"Burger<\/p>\n

What is the Burger King Cheesy Bacon Crispy Chicken Sandwich?<\/h3>\n

The Cheesy Bacon Crispy Chicken Sandwich is a fairly straightforward offering from The King. You\u2019ve got a big, crispy chicken filet (which, if you so request, comes with special spicy seasonings), a couple of strips of smoky bacon, a toasted potato bun, and two types of cheese-related dressings underneath. There’s a thick, creamy cheddar sauce and what appears to be at least two slices of melted (or at least slightly warmer than usual) American cheese.<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

\"Burger<\/p>\n

The chicken filet is actually a lot better than you may anticipate, and as always, Burger King\u2019s bacon, in my opinion, remains one of the most underrated toppings in the world of fast food fix-ins.<\/p>\n

\"Burger<\/p>\n

The potato bun, unfortunately, doesn\u2019t have much flavor to it, but where this thing really disappoints is in the cheese department. The proprietary cheddar sauce is shockingly tasteless, and whatever brand of American cheese BK is using these days has to be one of the more mundane variations on the market. <\/p>\n

Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

This is a perfectly fine fast food offering… and that\u2019s the problem. There\u2019s no denying the Cheesy Bacon Crispy Chicken Sandwich \u2014 which I\u2019m just going to call the CBCCS from here on out \u2014 is a flavorful, hearty sandwich, which will certainly fulfill whatever poultry-burger cravings you may be having. <\/p>\n

Alas, it doesn\u2019t offer anything new, and the lack of any fresh produce to counterbalance the medley of meats makes this a recipe for cottonmouth city (not a surprise in the slightest, since this sammich packs nearly an entire day\u2019s worth of recommended salt intake).<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

The CBCCS plays it a little too safe, and the result is a tasty, but hardly remarkable, limited time only sandwich from the fast food juggernaut that seems like it\u2019s pumping out a new LTO item every 10 to 12 days. <\/p>\n

The sandwich definitely could have been improved with a different sauce (a savory boom-boom aioli, perhaps?) and with so much meat in the mix, some lettuce and tomato almost seem like a gustatory necessary.<\/p>\n

It would have been nice to see BK get a little experimental with the toppings (some onion rings or fried mushrooms would\u2019ve been great), but it seems like the choice of dairy is where the King went astray here. Swiss, mozzarella, gruyere \u2026 pretty much anything would\u2019ve been a better fit than the Velveeta spread they ultimately opted for. <\/p>\n

Still, it is good and extraordinarily filling; but for the rather steep price point, it seems like you should be getting something a little more distinct than the final product.<\/p>\n
