Sl33zy right here, the defacto unofficial Burger King correspondent for the Fatguyfoodblog. I have been going again on forth on BK’s fare for a few yr now, and we have had a little bit of a curler coaster relationship recently- and never like a enjoyable curler coaster at Six Flags however extra like an previous, creaky picket one the place you are too afraid of it all of a sudden collapsing to have any enjoyable. Final time I used to be there, I had mighty low expectations for the Whopperito, which actually ended up being the very best quick meals merchandise I’ve reviewed for this weblog. However do not you assume for a sizzling second I am getting into there and anticipating a fluke like that to occur once more.
On the time I wrote that evaluation, I used to be nonetheless basking within the afterglow of the Whopperito’s deliciousness. Nevertheless, now I’ve to reread the evaluation simply to imagine it really happened- it is like a dream I had whereas dozing off within the sizzling solar with a sombrero tipped over my eyes on the aspect of a busy interstate. It seems I have been burned by BK so many occasions, even after a ten/10 expertise, they nonetheless could not salvage their status with me. Truthfully, if it wasn’t for this weblog, I would in all probability be okay with by no means setting foot in previous BK once more.
However they only appear to maintain cranking out new shit, and I’ve obtained a weblog to put in writing. So true to the previous FGFB motto, time to spend my hard-earned cashola on the newest and probably-not biggest so you do not have to!
Due to sharing this weblog on my Fb web page and the weblog itself being powered by Google, I am continuously barraged with aggressive quick meals advertising in my information feed- so I went in anticipating to attempt the brand new Bacon King sandwich and the marginally much less new Jalapeno Hen Fries. I did not know that the exact same day BK was rolling out a brand new Crispy Hen Sandwich.

To be trustworthy, hen sandwiches actually ain’t my sport. As I’ve talked about not too long ago, the purpose is misplaced on me. If you are going to bread after which fry hen why trouble placing it on extra bread? A dipping sauce would suffice simply superb right here. Meal full and assumably a job properly executed. However for some purpose, any person sooner or later mentioned, “Nah man, there’s merely not sufficient bread right here. The floor space of a hen tender doesn’t precisely signify my ardour for bleached flour. When consuming hen tenders I desire my bread to hen ratio to be no less than 1 to 1. For each hen morsel I eat, it should be absolutely padded in wheat.” Nicely, whatever, I have been watching the Pengest Munch on YouTube not too long ago; that dude appears to have his shit collectively and he will get one each time… Possibly there’s just a few textural factor I am lacking right here.
However I will inform you precisely what textural factor I am not lacking: rubber! Which is strictly how I would describe this hen sandwich- QUITE RUBBERY. In truth, if I had dropped the factor as I rightly ought to have, little doubt it’d nonetheless be ricocheting across the restaurant. For actual, this hen patty crunched in a disturbing method. My bites had been nearly form of snapping off, like consuming some form of microwaved hen jerky. Though the feel was disagreeable, the style is about what I used to be anticipating: a routine conjuncture of hen, bread and mayonnaise; the style that I think about one who enjoys quick meals hen sandwiches appears for in a quick meals hen sandwich. In all probability not that texture tho.

Holy shit- if that is the NEW hen sandwich what the fuck was incorrect with the previous one?!
The way forward for this meal appeared grim, however nonetheless I moved on to the Jalapeno Hen Fries (aw, how courageous of me.)

| yo this field can maintain no less than ten extra hen fries |
These had been good- the straw-like form of them supplied an additional crunch and would’ve made them higher to dip, if I had been supplied any dipping sauces. They had been slightly greasy and a few had been oddly formed, however they tasted so a lot better than the hen sandwich I used to be grateful. Nevertheless, with “Jalapeno” within the title, I used to be anticipating a little bit of a kick, however the spice sport right here was weak. If it weren’t for the bits of inexperienced on the skin, I would assume there had been a mix-up.

| did you hear hen fries are authorized in MA now? |
After consuming these oddities, the BBQ Bacon King in contrast was a lot too acquainted. Firstly, the quantity of bacon included on this sandwich warrants a reputation extra like “Bacon Jester”. So with that being the case, I am unable to actually even determine why this sandwich exists- BK already had a bacon cheeseburger, and it was simply okay. Sadly, the identical might be mentioned of this one- however with a boisterous sufficient title to instantly sprint my hopes.

| god I hope that was mayo |
And so, I used to be proper to maintain my expectations low. Despite the fact that the “Jalapeno” Hen Fries had been good, they did not even come near Whopperito stage, and even sufficient to make up for the terrible hen sandwich or common BBQ Bacon King.
New Hen Sandwich: D.
Jalapeno Hen Fries: B-.
BBQ Bacon King: C+.
