hey everyone welcome back to another high quality foodie feature for you here on the channel where
this time i'm over a good old carl's jr because it looks like they're closing out 2020 with yet
another brand new chicken sandwich on their menu that's right so stay tuned because the
blt ranch big chicken sandwich is up next welcome to peep this out reviews with Ian K stay frosty
all right so let's get it going with the all-new blt ranch chicken sandwich here at carl's jr
and as you can see we've got a nicely seasoned chicken patty right there in the middle guys this
is looking pretty great starting us off we've got a standard brioche style bun pretty much par for
the course with most fast food chicken sandwiches underneath it a decent amount of ranch not too bad
there we've got two strips of bacon and obviously guys the main star of the show that big chicken
fillet 100% white meat on the inside fried up to a crispy golden brown looking pretty nice
underneath that we've got some lettuce we've got some tomato a little bit more ranch on the bottom
and the bottom of the bun so pretty simple ingredients list on this one guys and again
it's got some heft to it there aside from the hefty price point for this
$7.99 i don't know about that but in terms of the overall quality of what i'm holding here
it feels pretty substantial and that bacon really looks pretty nice there guys let me just give
you a fast look at this again take a look at that guys nice and crispy it looks fairly lean as well
let's give this a go it's the all-new blt ranch big chicken sandwich here at carl's jr let's do it
it is big well i will say right after the initial softness and very very comfortable
mouth feel of that brioche style bun guys you go right into the chicken and it is very very tender
and juicy i have to admit i'm a little surprised by this right now i was hoping it was gonna be but
again very nice seasoning on this it's got just the right amount of saltiness and fried coating
that i think is really going to satisfy a lot of people who like fried chicken sandwiches and
i definitely do and i think most of you guys do as well but overall guys i gotta say it's seasoned so
much i'm not really tasting anything else just yet and the chicken is solid let me just give
you a fast look at what i'm looking at here solid white meat guys that looks beautiful it's fairly
thick too so considering the price point on this i was hoping it was going to be a big sandwich
and it really feels like it very nice situation on this one let's keep going in pretty solid
hmm man that's completely drowning out the flavor of the tomato but now the ranch is coming
in there along with the hickory smoke of the bacon guys it's two fairly large slices of bacon
which is pretty nice but again the star of the show is easily that big chicken filet that is
really a bomb situation and it's got ranch and i can always get behind that because ranch is
my all-time favorite with fried chicken and this is definitely a bomb situation so let's
keep going in guys i am absolutely digging this right now and i love the fact that
i'm actually having a blt with chicken and the chicken is sizable this is pretty good
i got to keep giving you the money shots on this one guys take a look at the quality of
that chicken breast now granted this was actually made in front of me right now they just dropped it
into the fryer and that was it so it was kind of pre-made in a way but at the same time the
quality of that meat is banging on this one guys and again the saltiness and that light
fried outer coating is really really awesome as you can see by the thickness of the meat
i would probably say it's about 70% meat 30% coating but lovely situation you know i've tried so
many chicken sandwiches throughout the year that are really trying to go toe-to-toe with you know
who that i have to say i really love the fact that competition is out there right now because there
are so many different variations of just a classic fried chicken sandwich out there you have a lot
to choose from the fact that this has ranch on it was the easy reason for me to get me over to give
this a shot but even still even with that tomato i'm very impressed with the quality of this guys
very very delicious stuff let's go for a couple more bites i'm definitely digging
it it's really sizable and even with this little chicken sandwich diaper as you can see nothing's
really falling out the back but i love the fact that it has the marketing and everything on it
it just feels like i'm having a carl's jr product right now pretty cool stuff let's keep going in
that chicken is good man you know i was really hoping i wasn't going to be kind
of pseudo-brainwashed with this one because on the very top of the box it actually is
promoting tender and juicy and i have to admit i am absolutely digging it right now guys this
is really really good and a very impressive piece of chicken it's not so much thick although it is
kind of thick as it is wide there is just a lot of chicken here which is pretty awesome so sizeable
is definitely good but thankfully the flavor is delivering on top of it so absolutely digging
this right now guys and like i said price point is really the only thing that hurts this again $7.99
is expensive for a chicken sandwich especially a fast food one considering the competition but i'm
so glad to have given this one a shot it is pretty tasty all right so let's go for one more bite on
this one we'll close this one out after the rating but guys a nice easy recommendation if you've got
carl's jr in the area this should be on your radar right now it is really really solid pretty good
here we go all right let's try and do a little 360 with this one here because there's really not too
much falling out the back like i mentioned earlier the ranch is kind of light on this one it's not
really there although it kind of is it's just a little bit of a hint but it really is a showcase
of the big chicken filet here guys that really is the main thing that's a little bit of the crunch
that you're getting from the lettuce and of course that tomato and the bacon is a very nice accent
but just a lovely situation and again tender and juicy on this chicken as you can see very nicely
done and it's high quality white meat solid stuff guys solid now if only was just a little bit more
competitive in the price department you'd have the best of both worlds but hey it is what it
is so with everything you've seen and heard right now and based upon my initial experience with this
i'm gonna have to give the all-new blt ranch big chicken sandwich here at carl's jr are pretty rock
solid 7.9 out of 10 this could have easily been way up into the 8 category had the price been
a little bit less but even still even though it is sizable there is a lot of other competitors out
there for a much cheaper price point that deliver pretty awesome flavor as well although that one
is kind of on the basic side for the ingredients list the quality of the chicken is banging so if
they can just bring the price down a little bit and deliver the quality that i just had right
now that would be just an amazing situation but guys still very worthy to check out at least one
time and especially to experience the big chicken here at carl's jr if you've never done it before
that's a pretty awesome version to try especially because it's got ranch and you know how i feel
about ranch right all right so i've got just one question for you does this blt ranch big chicken
sandwich look like it's worth $7.99 to you i mean would you pay over 8 bucks for something like
this even though the quality is pretty banging drop those comments down below and definitely
let me know and with that this is Ian K closing out another high quality foodie feature for you
