Layered Ultra-Cheesy Burgers

Dairy Queen Has a New Cheesy Dude Sandwich That's Loaded with Cheese

— April 27, 2022 — Lifestyle
Dairy Queen is catering to cheese lovers with the debut of two tasty new offerings: the Cheesy Dude Sandwich and new Cheesy Steak Fingers.

Just as the name suggests, the new Cheesy Dude Sandwich is loaded with cheese. The sandwich is made with a crispy-fried chicken patty that's been infused with Pepper Jack cheese and then layered with lettuce, vine-ripened tomatoes, creamy salad dressing, and two more slices of Pepper Jack cheese. Naturally, the new Cheesy Steak Fingers are just as cheesy. This dish consists of Dairy Queen's crunchy, golden steak fingers infused with the same spicy, creamy pepper jack cheese as the sandwich patty.

Both of the new menu items are available from Dairy Queen restaurants in Texas from April 25th until June 12, 2022.
