Burger King Specialty Sandwiches are a line of sandwiches developed by the international fast-food restaurant chain Burger King. The sandwiches were first introduced in 1979 and have since become a staple of the Burger King menu, with various iterations and modifications over the years.

History[edit | edit source]

The first Burger King Specialty Sandwich was the Sirloin Steak Sandwich, introduced in 1979. This was followed by the Original Chicken Sandwich and the Fish Sandwich, both introduced in the early 1980s. The introduction of these sandwiches marked a shift in Burger King's menu, moving away from just burgers and fries to a more diverse offering.
