Fast-food fans in Central California are in for a tangy treat as Carl’s Jr. rolls out its latest burger innovation: the Really Big Dill Burger. This limited-time offering, now being tested at select locations, amps up the classic charbroiled patty with an overload of pickle-inspired flavors that promise to deliver a “triple pickled” punch.
The Really Big Dill Burger features a flame-grilled all-beef patty slathered in creamy dill aioli sauce, topped with crispy pickle fries, crunchy pickle crisps, and melted Swiss cheese for that perfect gooey contrast. Fresh lettuce adds a crisp bite, all nestled in a toasted sesame seed bun. For those with heartier appetites, upgrades to a Double or Triple version stack on additional patties, turning it into a towering dill delight. Pair it with fries and a drink in combo form for the full experience, starting around $10 depending on size and location.
This pickle-packed creation taps into the growing national obsession with dill flavors, from pickleback cocktails to pickle-flavored chips. Carl’s Jr., known for its bold Western-style burgers like the Famous Star and Santa Fe Chicken, continues to push boundaries with seasonal tests that often graduate to nationwide menus. “So much pickle power,” teases the chain’s promotional video, capturing the burger’s briny, herbaceous vibe that’s equal parts nostalgic and audacious.
The test launch kicked off earlier this month in Central California hotspots like Fresno and Merced, where DoorDash listings already spotlight the Triple Really Big Dill Burger Combo as a standout. Availability is strictly limited-time, so eager eaters are advised to check the Carl’s Jr. app or website for participating spots—think drive-thrus along Highway 99 from Bakersfield to Modesto. Prices and exact menus may vary, but early buzz suggests this could be the dill-icious hit of fall.
Whether you’re a pickle purist or just craving something fresh from the grill, the Really Big Dill Burger is Carl’s Jr.’s way of saying: Why settle for ordinary when you can go big and dill?
