The Pulled Pork BBQ Cheeseburger is priced starting at $5.29 + tax.

Guests looking to satisfy their BBQuriousity can savor SONIC’s new take on totchos (also known as tot nachos) with Pulled Pork BBQ Totchos – crispy tots transformed into a BBQ delight, topped with tender pulled pork and cherrywood smoke sauce. A craveable twist on SONIC’s beloved tots, they are perfect for a hearty afternoon snack or alongside the Pulled Pork BBQ Cheeseburger. Pulled Pork BBQ Totchos are priced starting at $3.39 + tax.

Guests can also “meat” up with friends at the drive-in for a Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwich – a large portion of smoked pulled pork smothered in cherrywood smoke sauce topped with crinkle cut pickles between a brioche bun. This tangy, smoky delight is a great value for just $3.99 + tax.

“The passion for barbeque among our guests fueled the drive to put our own spin on these craveable favorites,” said Mackenzie Gibson, Vice President of Culinary & Menu Innovation at SONIC. “We’re always pushing the boundaries and finding new ways to take fan-favorite items, like our cheeseburgers and tots, to the next level. These new items are a harmony of BBQ’s best flavors, proving BBQ really does make everything better.”

No barbeque is complete without something refreshing to wash down all that smoky flavor. Fans can now quench their thirst with SONIC’s new take on the viral “Dirty Drinks.” Whether rounding out a meal or grabbing a midday pick-me-up, soda sippers and connoisseurs can “Make It Dirty” by adding the sweet flavors of coconut, cream and lime to their favorite beverage.* As the Ultimate Drink Stop®, SONIC has thousands of unique drink options for guests to customize, including this new trendy combination.

Every time guests order a drink at SONIC, they’re supporting local public schools. Powered by the SONIC Foundation, SONIC donates a portion of all drink, slush, blast, and shake sales to support public education through the SONIC Limeades for Learning® initiative.** Since 2009, SONIC has donated more than $27 million to funding local classrooms, becoming one of the largest programs to support public education in the U.S.

*Add-ins cost extra; guests can “Make It Dirty” for an additional $1.30.

**SONIC donates a portion of every drink, slush, blast and shake purchase to the SONIC Foundation, which is used to support local schools across the communities SONIC serves through partners like DonorsChoose.
