Checkers & Rally’s is bringing flavor, music, and entertainment in their latest collaboration with GRAMMY award-winning artist, American singer, songwriter and record producer, T-Pain.

It’s always a win when our favorite fast food brand teams up with iconic artists in Hollywood. We’ve seen a lot of iconic meal collaborations between our favorite fast food brands and artists we admire, and each of its success is thanks to the unique blend of creativity and combination of value and good food they bring to the table. These collaborations not only bring exciting menu items but it also offers the fans memorable experiences that mix pop culture with our favorite cravings.

Summer may be ending soon, but we don’t have to let go of delicious BBQ sessions and dishes thanks to restaurants’ BBQ-flavored menu lineups. Fortunately, our favorite drive-thru restaurant, Checkers & Rally’s, has a surprise for us, BBQ-loving customers. They have partnered with Grammy Award-winning artist, songwriter, and record producer T-Pain to unveil the new $5 T-Pain For Real Meal.

Starting September 17, 2024, you can get the new $5 T-Pain For Real Meal, a BBQ-inspired value meal that includes your choice of either a classic Checker/Rallyburger or the new BBQ Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Aside from that, you’ll also get a small fry, a 16-ounce soft drink, and eight BBQ Chicken Bites seasoned with BBQ spices, all for just $5. Checkers & Rally’s BBQ Spicy Chicken Sandwich includes their signature Spicy Chicken sandwich with American cheese and pickles on top, plus the Sweet N’ Smoky BBQ sauce is added for the extra kick of bold flavor. All these ingredients are served in a toasted bun.

T-Pain, being one of the top artists, shares how he’s a big of Checkers & Rally’s; saying it’s one of his go-to spots, and this partnership with the brand just made a lot of sense for him, and it’s what he is genuinely excited about. He also can’t believe that he’s got his own meal at Checkers & Rally’s, and he also added that customers shouldn’t miss out on the BBQ-inspired T-Pain For Real Meal. Lastly, the artist added that the partnership with Checkers & Rally’s is like a dream collab track that is going to be a hit, especially it’s offered for only five dollars.

Along with the $5 T-Pain For Real Meal, guests can also enjoy the newly launched T-Pain Cheesy Bacon BBQ Buford. It comes with two large hand-seasoned all-beef patties stacked up with melty Swiss cheese, crispy onion tanglers, melted cheddar cheese, three strips of crispy bacon, and Sweet N’ Smoky BBQ sauce all sandwiched on a toasted bakery-style bun.

The T-Pain For Real Meal and these new menu items are now available at participating Checkers & Rally’s locations nationwide for a limited time.

From The Club

I’m honestly blown away by the recent fast food meal collaborations we have at the market right now. First, we had the Jack in the Box and Deadpool meal collab, then McDonald’s teams up with Genshin Impact, and now Checkers & Rally’s joins the collaboration arena with none other than T-Pain. What’s exciting about this collab is the flavor they’re going for – BBQ, which has been one of the highlights of summer. Dropping this collab right now heats up the season like it’s summer all over again.

No one really turns their back on BBQ, it’s a classic dish we all have a soft spot for. Its bold flavors of marinated meat will always be a favorite in dishes and gatherings, that’s why I’m one of the customers who’s excited to try the $5 T-Pain For Real Meal. For only five bucks, I’d get to enjoy one BBQ-flavored burger, a small fry, a 16-ounce drink, and 8-pieces of BBQ Chicken Bites. That’s a meal worth trying! Not only it helps us get a satisfying meal without the golden price tag, but it also balances out the price market, giving other major fast food chains a run for their money.
