CARPINTERIA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Starting today, Hardee’s® combines two quintessentially American comfort foods into one with the introduction of the Grilled Ham ‘N’ Cheese Thickburger, available at participating restaurants.
The Grilled Ham ‘N’ Cheese Thickburger features four slices of melting American and Swiss cheeses, and thinly sliced ham piled atop a charbroiled, 100 percent Black Angus beef patty, with just the right amount of mayonnaise and mustard, all sandwiched between two slices of grilled bread.
“Hardee’s has a long and successful history of combining the popular tastes of great American sandwiches with the great American burger,” said Brad Haley, chief marketing officer for Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr.® restaurants. “From Philly Cheesesteaks to French Dips, the flavors have always paired really well with a charbroiled, 100 percent Black Angus beef patty, but putting a burger inside of a grilled ham and cheese sandwich may be the best marriage yet. It’s like a cheeseburger with a whole lot of melted cheese, and the ham provides the smokiness that bacon usually provides on a really good burger. I guess you could even say that we put the ham back in the hamburger.’”
The Grilled Ham ‘N’ Cheese Thickburger is available in 1/4-, 1/3- or 1/2-lb sizes, all made with charbroiled, 100 percent Black Angus beef, starting at $3.79, or as a combo meal with fries and a drink starting at $5.79. Prices may vary.
