Crunchy and delicious, the Carolina Crunch stacks crispy Applewood-smoked bacon, fluffy eggs and melty American cheese, all served in between two extra-large Bo-Tato Rounds® seasoned with Bo's Famous Seasoning. Inspired by one of Bojangles' most beloved breakfast fixin's, the sandwich turns the fan-favorite Bo-Round into the star of an all-new menu item.
Bojangles is also remixing its cult classic Cajun Filet Biscuit® with the Cajun Bacon Ranch Biscuit. The new sandwich includes an all-white meat chicken breast marinated in Bojangles' signature blend of seasonings and layered with American cheese, Applewood-smoked bacon and house-made ranch, all served on a made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuit.
"Our Bo-Rounds are the No. 1 fixin’ ordered at breakfast, so creating the Carolina Crunch was a natural fit. It gives our fans even more of what they already love, combining our signature Bo-Rounds with the flavors that make Bojangles’ breakfast special,” said Marshall Scarborough, Vice President of Menu and Culinary Innovation at Bojangles. “And the Cajun Bacon Ranch Biscuit gives you an excuse to eat our hot and fresh biscuits for breakfast, lunch or dinner.”
The Carolina Crunch and the Cajun Bacon Ranch Biscuit are available now, while supplies last. Guests can order in restaurant, through the Bojangles app for pickup or delivery or via participating third-party delivery services. Guests can also visit www.bojangles.com to find the location closest to them.

Light winds and lower temperatures were in the forecast Monday to help firefighters with wildfires in eastern Washington state that forced the evacuation of 60,000 people in the Spokane area while destroying at least 600 homes, businesses and other structures.
The fires in and around Spokane, the state's second-largest city, burned about 12.5 square miles (about 32 square kilometers) by Monday morning and filled the sky with smoke and haze. They were 0% contained, Courtney James, a spokesperson for the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, said.
The weather forecast for Monday called cooler temperatures and light winds following strong wind gusts Sunday. No rain was in the forecast.
The fires were among dozens of wildfires across the Western U.S. that stretched the ability of federal, state and local agencies to fight them.
At least 390 square miles (1,000 square kilometers) has burned across the state, and some of the fires, including those in the Spokane area, have not been contained.
Fire and law enforcement officials said there had been no reports of injuries or people unaccounted for — but they stressed it was early in the response effort.
Officials also said that the evacuees in Spokane included patients at its U.S. Veterans Affairs hospital.
Video from the Spokane area showed buildings on fire, black smoke billowing up near neighborhoods, and the smoking ruins of homes, with only chimneys still standing. Several officials expressed concern that the area does not appear likely to get a break in coming days from the weather, which is expected to remain dry.
“We are not out of danger,” U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell said during a news conference Sunday with federal, state and local officials in Spokane. “The next couple of days will be challenging.”
Investigators had yet to determine how the blazes started.
Fire officials said two drone operators who were not authorized to operate during the wildfires have been cited. There were at least 26 “drone incursions” over the fires on Sunday, they said.
Spokane was hardly the only place struggling to contain fires.
Crews using bulldozers and helicopters continued for a 10th day to fight a fire that has burned nearly 525 square miles (about 1,360 square kilometers) of grassland in western Idaho and eastern Oregon. The area is home to cattle ranches, and authorities said the fire is threatening more than 600 homes and 800 other structures.
The weather in the area was expected to remain sunny — and dry — well into the week, with temperatures rising to more than 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius) on Wednesday. Officials say the fire was caused by lightning.
In central Utah, a massive blaze more than doubled in size over the weekend and was nearly 57 square miles (147 square kilometers) by Monday morning. More than 100 cattle have been killed, according to local law enforcement.
Officials called the fire “catastrophic" as heavy winds helped flames jump containment lines.
The fire is moving north toward Fillmore, a town of about 2,600 people and the seat of Millard County. Mandatory evacuations were ordered Sunday evening for the southern portion of Fillmore.
The National Weather Service issued warnings about the air quality across the northwest. It issued red flag fire warnings for parts of Utah and Montana and western Nebraska, and extreme heat warnings for the southern parts of Arizona, California and Nevada and northern Montana.
Authorities in Spokane set up a shelter at the city's main convention center. About 400 people were staying there, officials said Sunday.
Spokane Public Schools opened a free emergency drop-in camp for children on Monday. Court trials in Spokane County scheduled for this week were continued to the week of Aug. 10.
Meanwhile, several larger fires continued to burn in less populated areas northwest of Spokane, including one about 80 miles (129 kilometers) from the city that has burned about 210 square miles (544 square kilometers). Another fire in eastern Oregon, about 70 miles (113 kilometers) to the northwest in the Stinkingwater Mountains, has burned about 336 square miles (870 square kilometers).
“The whole northwest is heavily impacted right now,” said Keila Vizcarra, the spokesperson for the federal team from California handling what's been named the Big Grass Fire in western Idaho and eastern Oregon.
