FRANKLIN, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In celebration of its newest craveable menu innovation, the Steakhouse Angus THICKBURGER®, Carl's Jr.® is offering fans a new way to “Feed Your Happy” with the ultimate steakhouse dinner experience from the comfort of their own homes.
As many customers continue to look for new ways to elevate their nights in, Carl’s Jr. will partner with Nocking Point Wines to introduce a limited-edition “Carl’s Jr. x Nocking Point Wines Steakhouse Burger Box.” The box features a collection of bold red wines thoughtfully curated by Nocking Points Wine Sommelier, Katie Owen, and CKE Vice President of Culinary Innovation and Chef, Owen Klein, to complement the rich and indulgent, steakhouse flavors from the burger’s hand-seasoned, 100% all beef Angus patty and A1® Thick & Hearty Steak Sauce*.
"With the world continuously changing, we know our customers are looking for familiar, craveable flavors and experiences like a steakhouse dinner, which is why we are excited to introduce the Carl’s Jr. interpretation of this experience with our partnership with Nocking Points Wines and our new Steakhouse Angus THICKBURGER®,” said Klein. “The Carl’s Jr. x Nocking Point Wines Steakhouse Burger Box makes a steakhouse dinner easy for everyone, replicating the fine dining experience of a wine pairing from the comfort of your home, while enjoying a delicious Carl’s Jr. Steakhouse THICKBURGER®.”

You will also find custom one-of-a-kind “Steakhouse” recipes curated by Chef Owen can be created at home to enjoy with the limited-time burger and wine offerings.
"If this recent period of change has taught us anything - it's how to enjoy the small, everyday moments at home. Whether that means opening a bottle of wine you wouldn't normally enjoy on a Tuesday night or indulging in a fancy meal,” said Owen. “We have worked with Carl’s Jr. to create a new and exciting pairing experience that we hope will transform your average evening at home into something a little more special."
