We first saw the burger on the LCD monitor while filling up at a Shell gas station. Those classic Carls Jr. ads that give mouth-watering a whole new meaning. The burger looked good and we knew we had to try one.
Then, the bacon ideas started flooding in email by email. Our amazing readers continously send in their great bacon finds to bacontoday@gmail.com and the Six Dollar Bacon Burger got buried in a long publication schedule.
Well, Carls Jr. decided to sweeten the deal and send us a couple free coupons to try the Guacamole 6 Dollar Bacon Cheeseburger so we had no more excuses. Mike was busy that night so I called up my good buddy Kevin to help me with the taste test.
Once we ordered our burgers and took our seats we immediately tore off pieces of bacon to give them the Bacon Today standard, unadulterated bacon taste test. Surprisingly, the bacon was quite tasty for fast food fare.
Then it was time to get to business.
We opened the boxes.
Removed the burgers.
And chowed down. Admittedly, I’m not a huge guacamole fan but these burgers were pretty darn good. There was a good deal of spiciness to the burgers which I really loved. Kevin thought it was a bit too spice for his taste.
The Smaste™ rating for these burgers is a decent 29.578. I think there’s room for improvement but definitely a good meal for a fast food bacon fix.
That really does look good! I dont think there are any Carl Jrs by me…
I love good bacon, on cheap thick cut white bread with lots of butter must be English cut bacon, allso good with British cut chips. this is not on our menu yet but wiil be soon. richie
