“The Signature Slingers is a first-of-its–kind fast food
cheeseburger, which delivers the juicy savory deliciousness you
expect from a burger in a way that makes you feel like you’re
getting away with something,” said Scott Uehlein, vice president of
product innovation and development for SONIC. “Adding mushrooms
right into the burger patty amps up the incredible flavors of the
100-percent pure beef and seasonings you get in each
bite. This burger truly raises the bar for every other
restaurant.”
Beginning Monday, March 5, guests can enjoy two Signature
Slingers cheeseburger options to satisfy their guilt-less burger
cravings. The Classic SONIC Signature Slinger is topped with fresh
lettuce and tomato, diced onions, crinkle-cut dill pickles, mayo
and melted American cheese served on a bakery-quality brioche bun.
The Bacon Melt SONIC Signature Slinger is made with crispy bacon,
layered with melted cheese and mayo served on a bakery-quality
brioche bun.
"We are excited to be a partner on the new Signature Slingers,
which brings together the craveability of pure beef with the
juiciness of mushrooms, creating a great tasting cheeseburger that
guests will only be able to get at SONIC,” said Bart Minor,
president of the Mushroom Council, which provides marketing and
education on behalf of the nation's mushroom growers and
importers. “The trend of blending mushrooms into a burger
patty has been atop a number of food trend lists this year and we
can’t wait for guests to experience SONIC’s uniquely delicious
creation."
Guests can pair the new SONIC Signature Slingers with a SONIC
Fruit Fizz™ for the ultimate lunch, dinner or snack, but only for a
limited time.
