The McDonald's Signature Crafted Buffalo Bacon Sandwich is a new creation from the QSR brand that is being test marketed at various locations to offer consumers an artisan-inspired sandwich to try out.
The new sandwich comes with either crispy/grilled chicken or beef and has been topped with thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon along with spicy buffalo sauce and cool blue cheese sauce on a sesame seed bun or an artisan roll. The use of two sauces helps to balance the sandwich and have something of a buffalo wing-inspired flavor (hence the name) to offer a spicy yet creamy experience.
The McDonald's Signature Crafted Buffalo Bacon Sandwich is being offered in a number of states including New York, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin with nationwide availability not yet announced.
