New Bacon Velveeta Patty Meltdown at Hardee's

Hardee's upgrades the patty melt with the addition of melted Velveeta cheese and bacon in the new Velveeta Patty Meltdown sandwich.

Specifically, the sandwich features a choice of either a quarter-pound, third-pound, or half-pound Black Angus beef patty plus chopped applewood-smoked bacon, caramelized onions, two slices of Velveeta cheese, and mayo on toasted sourdough bread.

It's available for a limited time at participating Hardee's restaurants starting at $4.79 (may vary) for the quarter-pound version. Prices for the sandwich in a combo with fries and a drink start at $6.79. For a bit of savings, there's a $1 off coupon on any size Bacon Velveeta Patty Meltdown combo on the Hardee's website (expires 1/25/15).

You can expect the sandwich to stick around for a couple of months.
