Carl’s Jr. to Test CBD-Infused Burger

The Rocky Mountain High: CheeseBurger Delight (CBD) will be available in Denver on April 20, 2019.

FRANKLIN, Tenn. (BUSINESS WIRE) — Carl’s Jr., known for impossible to ignore flavors and craveable menu items, on Wednesday announced it will be testing its latest menu innovation the Rocky Mountain High: CheeseBurger Delight (CBD) for one day only on April 20th at one Carl’s Jr. restaurant location in Denver.

The Rocky Mountain High: CheeseBurger Delight features two 100 percent charbroiled beef patties paired with Carl’s Jr. signature Santa Fe Sauce infused with hemp-based CBD oil, pickled jalapeños, pepper jack cheese and Crisscut fries to give the burger the extra crunch — all between a premium bun.

“The new Rocky Mountain High: CheeseBurger Delight ties back to our core strategy of being the first to bring bold and unexpected flavors that are at the forefront of hot restaurant trends to a quick service menu,” said Patty Trevino, Senior Vice President, Brand Marketing at Carl’s Jr. “From our early introduction into plant-based options to bringing the rare indulgence of truffles to our menu with the new Bacon Truffle Angus Burger*, our customers have come to expect innovative and unique menu offerings, and we’re thrilled to be the first quick service restaurant to be testing CBD infused options.”

The hemp-derived CBD oil is sourced from our partner Bluebird Botanicals, a local Colorado company.

The Rocky Mountain High: CheeseBurger Delight will be available at the Carl’s Jr. restaurant located at 4050 Colorado Blvd. in Denver, CO on April 20, 2019 beginning at 6:00am MT until the store closes for $4.20, while supplies last.

* With natural and artificial truffle flavor
