5 best variations Of Bbq Chicken Sandwich Whataburger

1. Bacon

Bacon always makes a great topping for any sandwich, and it’s no different for our bbq chicken sandwich Whataburger. Pork bacon is best for this variation, but you can also use turkey bacon if you want to.

2. Mozzarella Cheese

If you’re in the mood for a grilled cheese sandwich topped with bbq sauce, add some mozzarella cheese instead of the usual cheddar cheese.

3. Lettuce

If you’re not a fan of tomatoes, add some iceberg lettuce to your sandwich.

4. Other BBQ Sauces

If you have other bbq sauces in the kitchen, feel free to use those instead of just using our recipe. We think Sweet Baby Ray is great for most bbq chicken sandwiches, but feel free to experiment with flavors and brands.

5. Pepper Jack Cheese

A little more spicy cheese gives the sandwich a little kick. This is not for you if you have kids and don’t want them to have too much spice.

However, if you’re trying to find the best comfort food, pepper jack cheese should be the first thing that comes to mind.

How Long Will It Take To Prepare?

If you’re cooking in the oven, it will take about 3 hours. If you are using a crockpot, it will take about 6-7 hours.

How To Make More Delicious?

For more flavor, add some more garlic and brown sugar. If you’re not a fan of iceberg lettuce (like us), try Swiss cheese instead. If you don’t like spicy flavors, it’s better to avoid pepper jack cheese.

Is Bbq Chicken Sandwich Whataburger Gluten-Free?

Yes, this recipe is gluten-free because of the sauce and the buns. Whataburger serves gluten-free buns, but we think regular buns taste better for most sandwiches.

Heart patients for Bbq Chicken Sandwich Whataburger

Is It Suitable For Diabetics Patients?

If you have diabetes and want to eat a savory bbq chicken sandwich, order the grilled chicken sandwich instead of the breaded chicken sandwich. You can also add extra sugar to your sauce if you like.
