Halo Burger is a Michigan-born fast food chain and, this season, the brand is paying homage to its Midwestern roots with the launch of what it has dubbed the 'Ultimate Midwest Sandwich.'
To create this Midwest-celebrating sandwich, Halo Burger teamed up with a social media influencer Taylor Dustin, who is known as the Wandering Michigander. As Domenique Annoni, Halo Burger’s Marketing Manager, explained in a recent statement, "Halo Burger and The Wandering Michigander have one strong quality in common, they are both driven by their love for Michigan and continue to look for ways to help it grow." With Dustin's help, the brand came up with a hearty sandwich featuring a 100% fresh quarter-pound beef patty topped with Wisconsin cheese curds, cheddar cheese, bacon, pickles, and ranch dressing.
The Ultimate Midwest Sandwich is available now through the end of 2022.
