Sl33zy right here, the defacto unofficial Burger King correspondent for the Fatguyfoodblog. I have been going again on forth on BK’s fare for a couple of 12 months now, and we have had a little bit of a curler coaster relationship recently- and never like a enjoyable curler coaster at Six Flags however extra like an outdated, creaky wood one the place you are too afraid of it immediately collapsing to have any enjoyable. Final time I used to be there, I had mighty low expectations for the Whopperito, which truthfully ended up being one of the best quick meals merchandise I’ve reviewed for this weblog. However do not you assume for a sizzling second I am stepping into there and anticipating a fluke like that to occur once more.
On the time I wrote that overview, I used to be nonetheless basking within the afterglow of the Whopperito’s deliciousness. Nevertheless, now I’ve to reread the overview simply to consider it truly happened- it is like a dream I had whereas dozing off within the sizzling solar with a sombrero tipped over my eyes on the aspect of a busy interstate. It seems I have been burned by BK so many occasions, even after a ten/10 expertise, they nonetheless could not salvage their status with me. Actually, if it wasn’t for this weblog, I might most likely be okay with by no means setting foot in outdated BK once more.
However they simply appear to maintain cranking out new shit, and I’ve acquired a weblog to write down. So true to the outdated FGFB motto, time to spend my hard-earned cashola on the most recent and probably-not best so you do not have to!
Due to sharing this weblog on my Fb web page and the weblog itself being powered by Google, I am continuously barraged with aggressive quick meals advertising in my information feed- so I went in anticipating to attempt the brand new Bacon King sandwich and the marginally much less new Jalapeno Hen Fries. I did not know that the exact same day BK was rolling out a brand new Crispy Hen Sandwich.

To be trustworthy, rooster sandwiches actually ain’t my sport. As I’ve talked about not too long ago, the purpose is misplaced on me. If you are going to bread after which fry rooster why trouble placing it on extra bread? A dipping sauce would suffice simply wonderful right here. Meal full and assumably a job effectively carried out. However for some motive, anyone in some unspecified time in the future stated, “Nah man, there’s merely not sufficient bread right here. The floor space of a rooster tender doesn’t precisely characterize my ardour for bleached flour. When consuming rooster tenders I want my bread to rooster ratio to be at the very least 1 to 1. For each rooster morsel I eat, it have to be absolutely padded in wheat.” Nicely, whatever, I have been watching the Pengest Munch on YouTube not too long ago; that dude appears to have his shit collectively and he will get one each time… Perhaps there’s just a few textural aspect I am lacking right here.
However I will inform you precisely what textural aspect I am not lacking: rubber! Which is precisely how I might describe this rooster sandwich- QUITE RUBBERY. In reality, if I had dropped the factor as I rightly ought to have, little doubt it’d nonetheless be ricocheting across the restaurant. For actual, this rooster patty crunched in a disturbing approach. My bites have been virtually sort of snapping off, like consuming some sort of microwaved rooster jerky. Though the feel was disagreeable, the style is about what I used to be anticipating: a routine conjuncture of rooster, bread and mayonnaise; the style that I think about one who enjoys quick meals rooster sandwiches appears to be like for in a quick meals rooster sandwich. In all probability not that texture tho.

Holy shit- if that is the NEW rooster sandwich what the fuck was improper with the outdated one?!
The way forward for this meal appeared grim, however nonetheless I moved on to the Jalapeno Hen Fries (aw, how courageous of me.)

| yo this field can maintain at the very least ten extra rooster fries |
These have been good- the straw-like form of them provided an additional crunch and would’ve made them higher to dip, if I have been provided any dipping sauces. They have been just a little greasy and a few have been oddly formed, however they tasted so a lot better than the rooster sandwich I used to be grateful. Nevertheless, with “Jalapeno” within the identify, I used to be anticipating a little bit of a kick, however the spice sport right here was weak. If it weren’t for the bits of inexperienced on the surface, I might assume there had been a mix-up.

| did you hear rooster fries are authorized in MA now? |
After consuming these oddities, the BBQ Bacon King against this was a lot too acquainted. Firstly, the quantity of bacon included on this sandwich warrants a reputation extra like “Bacon Jester”. So with that being the case, I can not actually even determine why this sandwich exists- BK already had a bacon cheeseburger, and it was simply okay. Sadly, the identical may very well be stated of this one- however with a boisterous sufficient identify to instantly sprint my hopes.

| god I hope that was mayo |
And so, I used to be proper to maintain my expectations low. Regardless that the “Jalapeno” Hen Fries have been good, they did not even come near Whopperito stage, and even sufficient to make up for the terrible rooster sandwich or common BBQ Bacon King.
New Hen Sandwich: D.
Jalapeno Hen Fries: B-.
BBQ Bacon King: C+.
