Customers have their pick of a beef patty or crispy chicken filet topped with onions, bacon slices, bourbon barbecue sauce and Fat Tire beer cheese on a toasted pretzel bun, according to a product description. The chicken sandwich also comes in a grilled version.

“Our Pretzel Bacon BBQ Steakburger was such a hit with guests last year that we brought it back with different options,” Laura Rueckel, chief marketing officer for Freddy’s, said in a news release.

The sandwiches aren’t the only items joining Freddy’s menu.

The Kansas-based burger chain is also launching a new line of “Freddy’s Frost” drinks in two flavors: lemon cream and orange cream. The frozen desserts feature lemonade blended with vanilla custard, with the orange cream one also having hints of orange in a nod to the classic Dreamsicle treat, according to Freddy’s.

The pretzel bacon barbecue sandwiches and Freddy’s Frosts will be available until July 2 in-store, online and on the Freddy’s mobile app, the restaurant said.

Pricing information wasn’t available.
