Burger King Canada is embracing barbeque season in a big way by launching the new Carolina BBQ Original Chicken Sandwich.
This flavorful new sandwich starts with a breaded chicken fillet topped with melty cheese, crisp bacon, some crunchy, hickory seasoned potato sticks, fresh lettuce, and a tasty Carolina BBQ sauce, all served on a toasted sesame seed bun. The new Carolina BBQ Original Chicken Sandwich is also making its debut alongside another Southern-inspired offering: Carolina BBQ Poutine. This twist on a Canadian classic consists of French fries topped with cheese curds, gravy, the same smoky Carolina BBQ sauce, and some crunchy hickory seasoned potato sticks.
Both the new Carolina BBQ Original Chicken Sandwich and Carolina BBQ Poutine are available now for a limited time.
