Culver’s: Tastebuds delight: Culver’s Colby Jack Pub Burger and direct-from-Louisiana Sweet Potato Fries debut

Irresistible Limited Time Menu Options Serve Up Variety of Rich Flavors

PRAIRIE DU SAC, Wis., Sept. 4, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Maintaining a reputation for deliciousness involves sharing new flavors throughout the year. Culver’s introduces the new menu options with layers of flavor sure to become instant guest favorites — the savory Colby Jack Pub Burger and crinkle cut Sweet Potato Fries.

“Our new Colby Jack Pub Burger grabs your attention with its multidimensional flavor,” said Craig Culver, co-founder and CEO of Culver’s. “It’s a mouthwatering spin on our signature ButterBurger, and a nod to the supper club history of Wisconsin.”

The Colby Jack Pub Burger starts with fresh, never frozen Midwest-raised beef, seared on a grill and topped with Wisconsin Colby Jack cheese, crispy fried onions, its own special 4-pepper mayo with a dash of A.1.(R) Steak Sauce on a Supper Club bun. Paired with Wisconsin Cheese Curds or Sweet Potato Fries, the Colby Jack Pub Burger is a savory addition to the ButterBurger line up. Guests at the more than 450 Culver’s restaurants can enjoy this ButterBurger through November 11.

Also available through November 11, Culver’s Sweet Potato Fries are made with genuine Southern-grown potatoes. Served hot and crispy, these crinkle cut beauties are naturally packed with vitamins, fiber and a complete serving of protein. Culver’s will showcase this irresistible side in a new social media promotion kicking off on Culver’s Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/culvers on September 5.

“Sweet Potato Fries are the ultimate comfort food and a savory complement to any meal,” added Culver.
