Melty Sourdough Sandwiches

Checkers & Rally’s is Serving Up Three New Bacon Sourdough Melts

— February 10, 2024 — Lifestyle
Checkers & Rally’s are going all in on sourdough this season with the debut of three new Bacon Sourdough Melts: the Bacon Buford Sourdough Melt, the Bacon Sourdough Mother Cruncher Melt, and the Sourdough Double Melt.

Perfect for those who love the subtle tang of sourdough, the new Melts are filling, yet flavorful sandwiches. The first of the new Melts, the Bacon Buford Sourdough Melt, pairs two slices of toasted Sourdough bread with two 100% beef hand-seasoned patties, melty Swiss and cheddar cheeses, grilled onions, and two strips of freshly cooked bacon. You can also double up your patties if you opt for the Sourdough Double Melt. On the other hand, the Bacon Sourdough Mother Cruncher Melt features similar ingredients, but swaps the beef patties for an all-white-meat crispy Mother Cruncher chicken filet.

All three of the new Bacon Sourdough Melts are available now.
