Hawaiian Bun Burger Collaborations

Sonic and King's Hawaiian Just Teamed Up for a New Burger Menu

— April 29, 2019 — Lifestyle
While King's Hawaiian has made its way to fast food menus before, now consumers can sink their teeth into the iconic hamburger buns at their local Sonic Drive-In.

For the first time ever, King's Hawaiian has teamed up with Sonic on a lineup of meaty club sandwiches. There are two new sandwiches to choose from, with one featuring a piece of fried chicken and the other topped with a beef patty. Both also include tomato slices, lettuce, Swiss cheese, bacon strips, and Sonic's Signature Sauce, which combines BBQ sauce and honey mustard. Of course, both sandwiches are also made with King's Hawaiian hamburger buns, which are known for their signature fluffy texture and subtle sweetness. The result is two new burger options that are perfect for hot summer days.
