The Burger King Southwestern King Sandwich is a new menu item being launched by the brand at its locations in Canada that will provide patrons with a satisfyingly crunchy option to try out. The burger is made with two of the brand's signature quarter-pound beef patties that have been flame-grilled along with two slices of cheese, bacon and crispy onions. The sandwich is then topped with a jalapeño queso and a bunch of crunchy tortilla chip strips to give it just the right amount of crunch.
The Burger King Southwestern King Sandwich provides a flavorful and textural experience that is being launched at participating locations at a price point of $9.19 CAD. The burger will provide a touch of Southwest Americana flavor to locations in the north as temperatures continue to trend downwards.
