Cheesy Jalapeño Patty Melts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Krystal Has a New Classic Patty Melt & New Cheesy Jalapeño Patty Melt

— October 29, 2024 — Lifestyle
Krystal is bringing the heat (and the cheese) this holiday season with the launch of two new Patty Melts: the Classic Patty Melt and the new Cheesy Jalapeño Patty Melt.

Available starting on October 28, 2024, Krystal fans can get their hands on the new Patty Melts alongside a variety of other Cheesy Jalapeño menu items. The first of the new melts, the Classic Patty Melt, combines one of Krystal's 100% USDA beef patties with American cheese and caramelized onions on toasted white bread. On the other hand, the new Cheesy Jalapeño Patty Melt takes the same ingredients found on the Classic Patty Melt and then adds spicy jalapeño cheese, caramelized onions, pickled jalapeños, and Duke’s Spicy Habanero Mayo.

Other spicy new offerings include the Cheesy Jalapeño Krystal, Cheesy Jalapeño Chik, and Cheesy Jalapeño Loaded Fries.
