Has anyone had this burger yet? I'm tempted to get one for lunch.

Looks like instant shits... lol worlds hottest. I don't like pickled jalapenos on a burger. Maybe i'm a minority. the poppers and hab bacon sauce sound interesting though..

I hate places that try to do this then just lump jalapenos on it. Should at least put some effort. It's like the stoned fry cook got to design the next burger based on crap they already had laying around. Trade out all the habs for some scotch bonnets or something.

Carribean jerk with a sweet scotch bonnet sauce, bacon n poppers

Meh, maybe hot for the normal person, but I doubt a single one of us would even come close to breaking a sweat.

On that note... It might just be worth the heart attack...

socalgardengal · Mar 27, 2015

Ok... got one!Comes in this colorful, niffty little box

D3monic · Mar 27, 2015

This coming from the guy that crushes BK tacos :crazy:

socalgardengal · Mar 27, 2015

That concludes the photos... all in all it was pretty good. ,NOT HOT AT ALL, to me at least. At least it had some flavor.

That actually looks better on the cut than their stock photo. Poppers probably are good on it.

Hey now, BK tacos are deepfried not microwaved

socalgardengal · Mar 27, 2015

I think they should make the patty spicy. Didn't really taste the poppers. The Jalapenos are a bit too much vinegary.
I say, TRY IT ONCE

D3monic · Mar 27, 2015

Yea that's why I don't like pickled jalapenos on food. I think habs or bonnets pickled in a oil similar to gardener would be good. Or just sauteed peppers. Thin bright multicolored slices cut into rings. Presentation is everything.
