Hardee's Introduces New Portobello Mushroom Melt Thickburger

FBR Staff Writer Published 22 November 2009

Contains a third pound of charboiled angus beef with Portobello mushrooms

Hardee's, a quick service restaurant chain, has rolled out the new Portobello Mushroom Melt Thickburger.

The Portobello Mushroom Melt Thickburger features a third-pound of charbroiled Black Angus beef, topped with Portobello mushrooms sauteed in a garlic-butter sauce, caramelized grilled onions and two slices of Swiss cheese, melted all together between toasted sourdough bread.

Brad Haley, executive vice president of marketing for Hardee’s Food Systems, said: “Mushrooms on hamburgers have been a classic pairing for many years, and the patty melt has been a diner staple for even longer. So, we knew we were on to something when we combined the two to create a new burger that was even yummier than either one alone.

“Portobello mushrooms are considered the steak of the mushroom world, so they were the ideal choice to top this delicious new Black Angus beef Thickburger.”

The Portobello Mushroom Melt Thickburger will be sold at participating Hardee’s restaurants for $3.79 and is also available in a small combo for $5.79 including Natural Cut Fries and a beverage. The company said that prices may vary by location.
