Sun-Cooked QSR Sandwiches

The Burger King Kuwait Sun Flame-Grilled Whopper is the World's First

The Burger King Kuwait Sun Flame-Grilled Whopper has been announced by the QSR brand as its newest sandwich that is crafted in an unorthodox manner to help garner consumer attention.

The sandwich is cooked with a solar-powered grill that harnesses the power of the sun to deliciously prepare it for patrons when the temperature reaches or surpasses 122 degrees Fahrenheit. The burger has been announced with a video from the brand that features chefs in fire proximity suits to show off just how hot the solar rays are in Kuwait.

The Burger King Kuwait Sun Flame-Grilled Whopper draws attention to the brand to offer consumers another reason to patronize the QSR brand this summer.
