00:00 great golf swing right there.
00:01 So hey, what started out as an April
00:03 Fool's prank in 2021 has quickly
00:05 become a highly anticipated
00:07 tradition at Culver's restaurants.
00:09 It's the curd burger and it's now
00:11 a fan favorite and it's back.
00:14 That's right, reporter Jessica
00:15 Curtis tells us all about it.
00:17 After what was supposed to be an
00:20 April Fool's Day prank became a
00:22 reality and a guest favorite,
00:24 Culver's is bringing back the
00:25 Curder Burger, giving those who
00:27 missed out another chance to try
00:29 this cheesy delicacy. Chef Quinn
00:31 Adkins, Culver's director of menu
00:33 development and creator of the
00:34 Curder Burger, says overwhelming
00:36 support of the fictional menu item
00:38 led first to a petition and eventually
00:40 to its real world creation. Our
00:42 guests went absolutely crazy for this
00:44 and they sent us thousands of letters
00:46 and they started an online petition
00:48 demanding that this be a reality.
00:50 So who are we to say no to our guests?
00:53 Chef Quinn explains what a
00:55 Curder Burger really is and why
00:57 the cheese curds are so loved.
00:59 So the Curder Burger is made when
01:01 we start with a deluxe butter
01:04 burger and then we top it with a
01:06 crown of golden fried cheese curds.
01:09 So you get that buttery,
01:11 delicious crunch and that cheesy
01:12 goodness in every single bite of the
01:15 sandwich. A cheese curd is basically
01:17 small bites of unaged cheddar cheese
01:20 and we lightly bread them and fry
01:22 them until they're crispy so you
01:24 can eat them in one bite.
01:26 They're crispy so you get this warm,
01:29 buttery, gooey, cheesy bite of
01:30 deliciousness. You can get your
01:32 hands on this crowd pleasing burger
01:34 between October 2nd and October 31st
01:36 this year and it's the perfect way
01:38 to celebrate Culver's National
01:39 Cheese Curd Day on the 15th.
01:41 We really wanted to make sure our
01:44 guests had plenty of opportunity to
01:46 get their hands on one or two of the
01:48 Curder Burgers, but I will say I
01:50 really encourage people to get to
01:52 their local Culver's sooner versus
01:54 later because as we saw last year,
01:56 you just never know how long these
01:58 supplies are going to last and once
02:00 they're gone, they're gone.
