-- Hardees/Carl Jr. New Mile High Bacon Thickburger

[Simply Red]

New at Carl's Jr. and Hardee's, the Mile High Bacon Thickburger features thick-cut Applewood-smoked bacon, a 1/3- or 1/2-pound charbroiled Black Angus beef patty, American cheese, red onion, tomato, lettuce, and mayo, on a toasted fresh baked bun.

The burger is only available for a limited time at participating Carl's Jr. and Hardee's restaurants. The suggested retail price starts at $5.59 (may vary).

If you're angling to get it in a combo, there's a $1 off coupon on the Carl's Jr. website here and Hardee's website here.

The thick-cut Applewood-smoked bacon should be a marked improvement over Carl's Jr.'s standard bacon. Unfortunately, I contacted the company and it won't be replacing their regular bacon on the menu. Other than the bacon, the Mile High is the same as their Original Thickburger.
