While fast food restaurants like McDonald's and Popeyes are preparing for the return of the snack wrap, Hardee's is testing out a different variety of tasty menu items. They might not be snack wraps, but these two new menu items are in partnership with the Tennessee-based BBQ company Clifty Farm, and will be ideal for anyone who enjoys big, mouthwatering sandwiches.
The American chain is working hard on launching the BBQ Pulled Pork Frisco and the Smoked Sausage, Egg and Cheese Biscuit. These efforts are just the latest from the Souther/Midwestern restaurant, which is known for its made-from-scratch biscuits and charbroiled thickburgers.
Hardee's has been leaning into shaking up its menu as of late, introducing some refreshing new drinks and a Homestyle Breakfast Burrito last month in preparation for the summer. Through their collaboration with Clifty Farms, they'll appeal to anyone craving fine BBQ craftsmanship.
Hardee's announced the addition of these menu items on June 18 and they'll start arriving on menus for a limited time only now through August 19.
The BBQ Pulled Pork Frisco combines chargrilled Angus beef with slow-smoked pulled pork from Clifty Farm alongside American cheese, onions, pickles, and Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet 'n Spicy Barbecue Sauce. The sandwich is served on toasted sourdough bread. Fans can also choose to try the Frisco Breakfast Sandwich with Ham or the Frisco Breakfast Sandwich with Bacon, each includes a folded egg, plus American and Swiss cheese on toasted sourdough.
Clifty Farm Country Meats CEO and president, Cole Fletcher, provided a statement about the new sandwich launch, acknowledging the company's dedication to create products that really harness the spirit of the smokehouse and utilize the "highest quality meat and ingredients" to create a delicious meal for customers.
"This process comes to life in the BBQ Pulled Pork Frisco at Hardee's, and we can't wait for customers to try it," said Fletcher.
Additionally, anyone who enjoys the savory delights of Hillshire Farm will be pleased that the limited-time-only Smoked Sausage, Egg and Cheese Biscuit is making a comeback. This includes a Hillshire Farm smoked sausage link with a folded egg and American cheese, paired between Hardee's famous biscuits.
These menu items are only available at participating locations and prices might vary. If you are a member of My Rewards then you'll get a one-time mystery offer to try either the BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich or the Smoked Sausage, Egg and Cheese Biscuit.
