Ever since Mike’s Sizzling Honey debuted in 2010, it’s been oozing its method onto pizza, ice cream, and the whole lot in between. Dunkin’s menu is the newest to fall into Mike’s sticky fingers with its new Sizzling Honey Bacon Sandwich, Wake-Up Wrap, and Snackin’ Bacon. The sandwich stacks sizzling honey bacon, a fried egg, white cheddar, and a sizzling honey drizzle on a brioche bun. Honey looks as if an ideal condiment for a breakfast sandwich, so this collaboration is a no brainer, and I’m shocked it didn’t occur sooner. Dunkin’ is perhaps somewhat late to the sport, however there’s no purpose this shouldn’t be a slam dunk.
Upon unwrapping this sandwich, I took notice that it appeared like lots of buns and never a lot else. The cheese was seen, however that was about it. I don’t usually really feel the necessity to dissect my meals earlier than consuming it, however typically it may be useful when reviewing to ensure you even have all the proper components since (this may come as no shock to my fellow quick meals purchasers) loads of occasions – you don’t.
Opening the sandwich revealed the whole lot that was purported to be there, albeit none of it appeared very interesting. The cheese wasn’t nicely melted, the bacon mediocre, and the egg appeared squishy, maybe because of sitting on the underside bun that was soaked within the sizzling honey glaze. I reassembled issues, which did make for a extra full image. Though sadly not a greater consuming expertise.
For having each sizzling honey bacon and a sizzling honey drizzle, there’s zero warmth current on this sandwich. I couldn’t detect any in any way, and if I hadn’t seen the worker who made it utilizing a bottle with a Mike’s label, I’d have thought it was common honey, and possibly the situation ran out of the true stuff. My dad is the sort of spicy food-averse one that begins coughing in the event that they take a look at a crimson pepper flake, and I feel he may eat this with no drawback. Dunkin’ should have mellowed out the pepper content material in hopes of a extra common attraction to its sweet-leaning fanbase, but it surely’s disappointing to anticipate a candy/sizzling combo and lack half of it completely. Attempting the bacon by itself, I discovered it to be serviceable quick meals bacon with a honey taste, however the warmth continues to be lacking. The egg was as unpleasantly squishy as its look promised. I didn’t anticipate an amazing fried egg on this scenario, however a spongey, candy one doesn’t assist issues. Maybe if a extra viscous honey drizzle was used or if it was positioned elsewhere on the sandwich, it could work higher, however as it’s issues simply get soggy.
After I tried this, there was a deal within the app to get it for $3, and it’s undoubtedly not price extra. Followers of sizzling honey and good breakfast sandwiches ought to get their repair elsewhere as a result of Dunkin’ dropped the ball on this one.
