Fast Food Review: BK Breakfast Shots from Burger King










Fast Food Review: BK Breakfast Shots from Burger King

March 25, 2009 · 6 Comments


Unfortunately, the BK Burger Shots left me somewhat unimpressed. I figured there could be some redemption within the tiny breakfast sandwich version. Introducing the BK Breakfast Shots from Burger King.

The BK Breakfast Shots are simply tiny breakfast sandwiches. Ingredients consist of egg, cheese, cheesy ranchero sauce and your choice of sausage, bacon or ham. One of my biggest gripes with the BK Burger Shots was how uninspired they were. They really didn-t offer up anything new or exciting other than being smaller than a typical burger. They were very average and I won-t be in a rush to get them again anytime soon. I felt the Burger Shots suffered from being plain and the bread was a little on the dry side. I was happy that the Breakfast Shots used a softer more breakfast-y style bun that was sort of reminiscent of a croissant. While none of the ingredients stood out as being anything amazing, the Breakfast Shots were more satisfying than the Burger Shots. They come in sets of 2, wrapped up in a tearable paper packaging (see above pics)
that eases with grubbing on the go and not getting too messy. The problem with the packaging is that it almost requires you to grip down on the sandwiches to tear them apart from one another. The extra soft bread takes a hit and you end up with sandwiches that look like they-ve been stepped on.

While not as disappointing as the BK Burger Shots, the Breakfast Shots as a whole didn-t live up to the hype. Was there hype? I don-t know. I don-t think these Burger Shots and Breakfast Shots were marketed too well. It doesn-t matter much because they turned out to be nothing too special anyways. The Sausage Breakfast shot was the best out of the 3. For the most part, they were good but Iprobably won-t be getting them again. I-m looking forward to Burger King getting passed this "mini" phase and on to something else.
