If you are the kind of person who can't decide between hamburgers or hot dogs at barbecues, this wiener-topped potato chip burger has everything you could want in one sandwich.
From Carl's Jr. and Hardee's, the new Most American Thickburger consists of a beef patty with a slit hot dog on top, plus a layer of Lay's kettle cooked chips in between hamburger buns. The typical ketchup, mustard, American cheese slice, lettuce, tomato, red onion and pickles are included too. The potato chip burger uses thick kettle cooked chip to avoid the issue of sogginess.
The meat on meat cheeseburger is just one of the latest offerings from a fast food restaurant chain that goes all-out with the unhealthy food hybrids.
