Wendy’s Barnyard Burger, a secret menu favorite, combines beef, chicken, and bacon in one sandwich. Learn how to craft this meaty meal without wasting extra ingredients, ensuring a satisfying and budget-friendly experience at the drive-thru.
Craft Wendy’s Barnyard Burger with Minimal Waste: Tips for Satisfying Your Hunger Efficiently
Have you ever been so hungry you could eat an entire farm? With a bit of creativity at Wendy’s drive-thru, you can come close. The Barnyard Burger, a fan-created secret menu item similar to McDonald’s Land, Air, and Sea, combines a beef patty, chicken patty, and bacon stacked between two buns with lettuce, tomato, and cheddar cheese.
To craft this meaty masterpiece, Instagram user @sarahmargareteats suggests ordering a bacon cheeseburger and a chicken sandwich, then stacking the chicken patty atop the bacon cheeseburger. While effective, this method leaves behind an uneaten sandwich. A more efficient approach is to order a bacon cheeseburger and a four-piece chicken nugget, using the nuggets to cover the burger, ensuring each bite includes beef, bacon, and chicken. Depending on your location, this add-on may cost only about $1, making it a more budget-friendly option than ordering a whole chicken sandwich.
Alternatively, some Wendy’s locations may offer chicken or single burger patties à la carte, allowing customers to customize their Barnyard Burger without excess waste. However, availability varies by location, as many Wendy’s restaurants are franchises, so it’s up to management’s discretion.
Elevate Your Barnyard Burger with Spicy Chicken or an Asiago Ranch Chicken Club Twist
No matter how you assemble your Barnyard Burger—whether following @sarahmargareteats’ method, the bacon cheeseburger-and-nuggets combo, or ordering patties à la carte—you can enhance the experience by opting for spicy chicken. This could be through Spicy Chicken Nuggets or the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, a 2023 Mashed survey rated Wendy’s best sandwich.
Add a hamburger patty to an Asiago Ranch Chicken Club for an extra twist. Available in classic or spicy, this sandwich already includes bacon, lettuce, tomato, Asiago cheese, and ranch, and, according to YouTuber JustFoodReviews, the addition of beef adds a satisfying "boom" to the flavor profile.
