Hello everyone, this is Running On Empty ...
Food Review!
Well, hello, ladies and gentlemen and everyone watching. I'm your host to TheReportOfTheWeek. And this is Running On Empty
Food Review.
I'm in the absolute wilderness.
I'm I'm in a black void. It's 3:00 a.m.
Well, that actually is true. The other two, you can just make up!
You know, I don't I really don't care but it is 3:00 a.m. right now because I'm determined! You see... what you see right here...
Right now is pure determination!
Also might just be because I got hungry and I wanted to get some Burger King, but that's an aside. Right?
We're just gonna say that it's pure determination because that sounds better. But,
anyway, I got hungry and I was actually feeling Burger King tonight, believe it or not. Yes
I know this was a rarity
This was a rare a rare night, and it turned that Believe It or Not
That Burger King also had a new item out that and I thought to myself. Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and procure said item
And then like I've never done this before
I'm gonna try to review it to oh
I got you on that when you thought I was just gonna say that I was gonna eat it
But NO! I'm gonna review it too because Burger King has a new addition to their menu
Let's crack open the good old notebook here
They have their crispy
chicken tenders
You can obtain these in a two-piece or a four piece usually like they go three
Six and then ten or twelve piece, but these are just two or four piece and that's it
So I guess you know if you want to stock up
You got to get a couple four piece ones or you know, you can just say I want to get 25 two piece
Crispy chicken tenders if you want to be that person yet
Nothing stopping you from doing it, but theoretically speaking anyway, they got their crispy chicken tenders
They are whole this this one really got me whole muscle
white meat chicken
so I guess it's a
Just um, you know, very very muscular
Chicken this time around aside from the non
muscular white meat chicken with homestyle breading
They're described on their website its quote tender juicy and crispy
Perfect for dipping they come with a variety of dipping sauces. None of them new so you could choose that any anything though
It's really being marketed with their honey mustard dipping sauce
I got a four piece for $4.49 for four of them
so that's where uh
where things stand in the world of these Burger King
chicken tenders a
Fascinating exciting world at that!
Just
Chicken tenders I'll I'll be honest. They're probably one of my favorite fast food items because they are versatile
That's one thing that a lot of people don't really realize
About chicken tenders is that they are so versatile, I mean you could eat them on the go. They're not really messy
The real good ones you can eat them as is and they're completely fine
The other ones you can dip them in a variety of sauces again
You could eat them on the go or you can make a big deal out of it
Like I am and I have to grab 50 feet of extension cords to just get the lighting out here
Good
So, you know you can do anything that you want
They reheat well, you know, so it's just a very versatile items and that's why I like the chicken tenders so much
You know, and I'm glad that Burger King finally got them on the menu!
This is one of those things. I think that everyone would everyone is kind of saying wait a minute
I thought Burger King already had these but they didn't. This is a new addition just brought out and yeah
The chicken chicken tenders. So let's see what we got
Those aren't chicken tenders
Guess they really thought I was gonna be going to town with the honey mustard because
One
Two
There's a couple more I guess they really just wanted to give them to me and that's an empty bag
Comes in its own little box you can see right there
crispy chicken tenders and
Again, I got four of them. You have premium crispy juicy tenders
no, artificial flavors colors or preservatives
So if you wanted these to be blue
I'm afraid they're probably not going to be again on the side here two piece four piece. I do like the design
made with white meat chicken
doesn't seem like we're
Missing anything else. So let's crack it open and see what we got
Alright.
There they are.
Four
Chicken tenders
you know a lot of people call these by
Different names right like you have some people that call these chicken tenders
Then you have people that call them chicken fingers
Which is somewhat accurate, you know, a chicken's finger isn't actually this long. It's about half the size
but
Partially its finger. You have the people that just call them chicken strips
Some people call them chicken tendrils
I couldn't say that one with a straight face
That was the one joke that I was really waiting to bring that one out. So there you go. That's a
We've reached the peak this time around
chicken tendrils
and
Anyway, here's a close-up of it
You can see I'm glad the fluorescent lighting is doing a somewhat adequate job of showcasing this
You can see it's pretty crispy though. I mean when they say it's crispy, I'll believe them, you know, you can see it's fried
It's battered. It's breaded and then there's the other three. So what I'm gonna do is I'm just gonna eat this one
And then we'll dip it in one of our many
Potential sauce receptacles though all of them are just honey mustard
And we'll go from there so it's the new crispy chicken tenders from Burger King going in!
The chicken
Crispy chicken tendons from Burger King. Well, they're really described as being
Trying to meet anyway three specific
criterium ie
They're supposed to be tender juicy and crispy. I think the most important thing
That most customers they're not even gonna care about whether they meet those three criteria or not
I don't think the average customer is gonna be walking around
With a little notepad on their shirt pocket or you know, maybe a suit jacket or whatever
That's gonna have those down and they're gonna be tasting them. Hmm
Well, is it is it crispy, you know, is it is it really tender or juicy?
Most people are just gonna have a checklist with you know, maybe two of those things.
I think most importantly though aside from those three
Is it good?
It's alright. Now, it's pretty good for what it is
I'm not going to say that it's the best chicken tender I've ever had because it certainly isn't
But it certainly is far from the worst as well. It is crispy. There's that definite crispy crunchiness to it
As for juicy there is some juiciness in there too - it is pretty flavorful for what it is and there was a good crispiness
Unfortunately in regards to it being tender it's a little it has a little bit of a chewiness to it. So I would not necessarily
Describe it as completely tender but I would say it hits two of the three. It's certainly crispy
These are gonna have a crispy crunch to them and to eat them
They're pretty flavorful and they do have a little bit of a juiciness as well
but keep in mind that they probably aren't going to be
Extremely tender it might have a little bit of chewiness
but it's not going to impede your eating experience overall too much now, I'm just going to
Dip it in the honey mustard sauce
briefly
And there I am we're not gonna know we actually did. Wow. That's a that's a new record right there!
We actually got that thing to focus
and
We'll just go ahead and dip this chicken tendroid in
In the honey mustard and we'll see what we get
Yeah, if there's one sauce to get this with it's the honey mustard one
It's free, you know free accompaniment
Get it with these tenders
Especially if you're a fan, I'm not even a fan of honey mustard. I almost never get the sauce
But it works out great with this. I mean it just it amplifies the flavor. It just blends so perfectly with it
It's a good sauce
If you get these get it with the honey mustard sauce, and I guarantee you it will boost the flavor
exponentially
So therefore I think I'm just gonna wrap things up there. Otherwise, just keep in mind. These are pretty standard chicken tenders
I think it's nice that Burger King actually has these though. I know they've had the chicken fries, but full blown chicken tenders now are a
I think a nice addition if you ask me so
You know, they got them. They're here two or four piece price to these was 449
for four of them a little on the pricier side, but at least you get what you pay for
So as of my rating I'm going to be giving these a 7.5
out of 10 that's a 7 point 5 out of 10 and
You know, otherwise pretty standard but if you're gonna get these get them with the honey mustard dipping sauce.
That's all that I have for you. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm your host TheReportOfTheWeek.
