Bacon Swiss Crispy (a Love Letter to Parents)

Starting today, busy parents and families running around with Christmas programs, band concerts, parties and secret Santa shopping, I’ve got some news for you!

Carl’s Jr. Canada — home of the famed, flavoured by fire, charbroiled 100% Angus Beef Thickburger® — is celebrating its new buttermilk-dipped, Hand-Breaded Bacon Swiss Crispy Chicken Fillet Sandwich by inviting deal-hungry Black Friday shoppers to “pay what you think it’s worth.”

No, I’m not kidding.

Starting on November 29, 2019 through the first week in December, Carl’s Jr. fans in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan can choose to pay $3, $5, $7 or $9 for a Carl’s Jr. hand-crafted chicken sandwich, featuring a tender, juicy, Canadian-farmed, premium chicken fillet.

“We’re so proud of the quality of our new premium chicken fillet sandwich, we’re putting our money where our mouth is and inviting our BC, AB and SK fans to tell us what they think our sandwiches are worth, as they break from their Black Friday deal hunting. We believe that our quality and taste is unmatched and we’re excited to see what customers will pay for a better quality fast food chicken sandwich by naming their price,” explains Adrianne Largo, Sr. Country Director for Carl’s Jr. Canada.

The Carl’s Jr. Bacon Swiss Crispy Chicken Fillet Sandwich is a new, permanent item on the Carl’s Jr. Canada menu — and, following the introductory “pay what you think it’s worth” pricing promotion — will retail at an average suggested price of $7.49, depending on the local market and special local offers.

The star of the Carl’s Jr. Canada Bacon Swiss Crispy is a juicy, premium, Canadian chicken breast fillet — no fillers, no minced and no pre-formed freezer-to-fryer patties. Carl’s Jr. Canadian restaurants serve only high-quality, Canadian-farmed chicken, prepared with no artificial colour or flavour, and raised without the use of added hormones.

Inspired by the classic BLT, each Carl’s Jr. Bacon Swiss Crispy is served in a light brioche-style bun, topped with fresh tomato, crisp lettuce, mayo, bacon, and Swiss cheese. As with all Carl’s Jr. burgers and sandwiches, customers looking to cut carbs can have their item Lettuce-Wrapped in fresh lettuce leaf.

SO, if you’re out shopping on Black Friday or anytime in the first week of December (up to Dec 8th), you can take advantage of this promotion and pay what you think it’s worth! We’re heading to Carl’s Jr. this weekend after soccer, a movie date, and dropping off the oldest at work – the timing is perfect and will definitely help keep
