From The Club

Burgers have been a favorite comfort food of mine, along with donuts and other desserts. With Carl’s Jr‘s new Teriyaki lineup, I’m most excited about the Double Teriyaki Burger, I’m curious how well the teriyaki sauce blends with the classic burger ingredients. But while I have my taste for greasy patties and crispy bacon strips, I may take a step back with Carl’s Jr. spicy cheeseburgers. Don’t get me wrong, my love for burgers doesn’t decrease, I just can’t take some jalapeno spices on top of my patties or bacon.
