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 previous, creaky wood one the place you are too afraid of it abruptly collapsing to have any enjoyable. Final time I used to be there, I had mighty low expectations for the Whopperito, which actually ended up being one of the best quick meals merchandise I’ve reviewed for this weblog. However do not you suppose for a scorching second I am stepping into there and anticipating a fluke like that to occur once more.
On the time I wrote that evaluation, I used to be nonetheless basking within the afterglow of the Whopperito’s deliciousness. Nevertheless, now I’ve to reread the evaluation simply to consider it truly happened- it is like a dream I had whereas dozing off within the scorching solar with a sombrero tipped over my eyes on the facet of a busy interstate. It seems I have been burned by BK so many instances, even after a ten/10 expertise, they nonetheless could not salvage their repute with me. Actually, if it wasn’t for this weblog, I would most likely be okay with by no means setting foot in previous BK once more.
However they simply appear to maintain cranking out new shit, and I’ve received a weblog to put in writing. So true to the previous FGFB motto, time to spend my hard-earned cashola on the newest 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 consistently barraged with aggressive quick meals advertising and marketing in my information feed- so I went in anticipating to strive 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 sincere, rooster sandwiches actually ain’t my recreation. As I’ve talked about just lately, 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 effective right here. Meal full and assumably a job effectively completed. However for some purpose, any individual 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 signify my ardour for bleached flour. When consuming rooster tenders I desire my bread to rooster ratio to be not less than 1 to 1. For each rooster morsel I eat, it should be totally padded in wheat.” Properly, whatever, I have been watching the Pengest Munch on YouTube just lately; that dude appears to have his shit collectively and he will get one each time… Possibly 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 would describe this rooster sandwich- QUITE RUBBERY. In actual fact, 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 method. My bites had been nearly 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 for in a quick meals rooster sandwich. Most likely not that texture tho.

Holy shit- if that is the NEW rooster sandwich what the fuck was flawed with the previous 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 not less than ten extra rooster fries |
These had been good- the straw-like form of them supplied an additional crunch and would’ve made them higher to dip, if I had been supplied any dipping sauces. They had been just a little greasy and a few had 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 recreation right here was weak. If it weren’t for the bits of inexperienced on the surface, I would 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 in contrast 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 am unable to actually even work out why this sandwich exists- BK already had a bacon cheeseburger, and it was simply okay. Sadly, the identical could possibly be stated of this one- however with a boisterous sufficient identify to right away sprint my hopes.

god I hope that was mayo |
And so, I used to be proper to maintain my expectations low. Although the “Jalapeno” Hen Fries had been good, they did not even come near Whopperito degree, 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+.
