Sonic Drive In has a new cheeseburger that features secret crave sauce. The limited time only Crave Cheeseburger is served with a sweet and tangy crave able sauce. Sonic Drive In refers to the crave sauce as a top secret recipe, so as soon as we heard that throwdown challenge, we were off to the races.
The Sonic Crave Cheeseburger is still the basic Sonic cheeseburger with an all-beef patty, chopped iceberg lettuce, tomato, chopped onion, crinkle sliced pickles and cheese. The major difference is that the burger is topped with a secret crave sauce recipe. Let there be no doubt that the secret crave sauce is the star of the burger show here.
Watch The Sonic Crave Cheeseburger Review
We headed over to the closest Sonic Drive In. I noticed online that if I ordered the Crave cheeseburger through the app that I could get it for half price. So, that was a great start to the trip. The burger is $3.99, so I believed that it was a good value but even better at $1.99!
I found that the burger was actually pretty good for a fast food cheeseburger. It seemed like it was being made fresh to order as I pulled up to check in and waited for the car hop to deliver. I also ordered some Tater Tots and the signature cherry limeade drink.
My first impression was that this was a big, good-looking cheeseburger. I had thought about ordering the double crave cheeseburger, but was glad that I didn’t. The bun was toasted, and the big burger was beefy and cooked nicely. Good seared crust on the burger.
The vegetables were fresh, cool and crisp. Plenty of iceberg lettuce, 2 slices of plum tomato, 3 crinkle cut pickles and then the secret crave sauce. The secret crave sauce was sweet and tangy, reminding me of a Southern comeback sauce more than a Thousand island dressing. I’m not sure what Sonic was going for here, but they nailed it with this special crave burger sauce!
