Featured Article: Secret Menu Items

In the mood for something new at a familiar place? Check out these secret “off menu” items at some of your local fast food joints. (Some locations may not carry everything to make these hidden items, so don’t be disappointed if they can’t make them for you. It’s always worth a try though!)

Burger King Club: Take the original chicken sandwich to the next level and make it a club—layers of crispy chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and cheese lie between two of BK’s signature sesame seed buns.

Ham & Cheese: For a simpler meal that isn’t quite as gargantuan, ask the cashier for a ham and cheese on a sesame seed bun.

Patty Melt: A gooey grilled cheese made with a juicy burger patty inside. Plus, any additional toppings you’d like.

Fatty Melt: Instead of a burger inside a grilled cheese, think burger ~between~ two grilled cheese.

Meat Mountain: Imagine a sandwich stacked with every single type of Arby’s meat (brisket, Angus steak, corned beef, roast beef, ham, bacon, turkey, and chicken) and you’ve got yourself a meat mountain! And don’t forget to add the swiss and cheddar cheese.

Bacon Beef ‘N Cheddar: Order the Arby’s signature Beef ‘N Cheddar sandwich made with thin slices of roast beef and cheddar cheese sauce, but add an extra serving of bacon.
