Things are heating up over at A&W Canada with the announcement that the chain is adding three new Spicy Piri Piri Buddy Burgers to its menu.
The Buddy Burger originally joined the A&W family back in 2012 as a smaller burger option (though not as small as the Baby Burger). Now, a spicy iteration of the Buddy Burger is available thanks to the addition of a spicy piri piri sauce made from hot chili peppers. The Spicy Piri Piri Potato Buddy pairs the piri-piri sauce with a potato hashbrown, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on a toasted bun, while the Spicy Piri Piri Beef Buddy takes a grass-fed beef patty, tops it with piri-piri sauce then adds lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Lastly, the new Spicy Piri Piri Chicken Buddy pairs a breaded chicken breast with piri-piri sauce, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on a toasted bun.
All three Spicy Piri Piri Buddy Burgers are available now for a limited time.
