BBQ pulled pork, sweet potato fries debut at Burger King Canada

March 8, 2013

For the first time ever, BBQ pulled pork sandwiches and sweet potato fries are available at Burger King restaurants throughout Canada.

The two new offerings are available for a limited time.

"Our new BBQ pulled pork sandwich and sweet potato fries are two feel-good menu options prepared with Canadians' demanding tastes in mind," said Alison Fletcher, director of Marketing Canada, Burger King Worldwide Inc. "We are committed to constantly providing our guests with new and exciting menu choices and, of course, the great-tasting food they love and expect from the Burger King brand."

The BBQ pulled pork sandwich is made with slow-cooked pulled pork dressed in bold BBQ sauce, is topped off with sliced onions and creamy sauce and is served on a toasted artisan-style bun. Customers can upgrade the french fries in any combo, including a Whopper sandwich, to include sweet potato fries.

Tropical Mango Smoothies, blended to order with real fruit, are also being introduced throughout the country.

Burger King Canada recently began rolling out a major menu expansion that began with the introduction of new chicken wraps, chicken strips, strawberry banana smoothies and mocha and caramel frappés last fall. The offerings are supported with ongoing national advertising that includes television, radio and in-store promotions.

Restaurants across the country have also begun introducing electronic menu boards across Canada.
