Winter is the perfect time for comfort food and White Castle's new Smoky Joe Slider certainly fits the bill.
Just in time for colder weather, White Castle has debuted a new Smoky Joe Slider, and brought back its fan-favorite Sloppy Joe Slider and Mac & Cheese Nibblers. The new Smoky Joe Slider features a blend of 100 percent beef mixed with onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, and a sweet and tangy sauce. The beef blend is topped with smoked cheddar cheese and crispy onion crisps, and is served on the brand's signature slider bun.
If you're feeling hungry, White Castle is also offering a new 'Joe Six Pack,' which allows you to mix and match any six Sloppy Joe or Smoky Joe Sliders for just $6.
