Upgrade Any Culver's Chicken Sandwich With A Free Order Request That Has 10x The Crunch

If you haven't heard of Culver's yet, it has one of Reddit's top-ranking fast food burgers and is famous for its ButterBurgers, a riff on a Wisconsin classic in which the buns are buttered and toasted. The chain was founded in Sauk City, Wisconsin, a small town outside of Madison, the state's capital, and specializes in other Midwestern favorites, like frozen custard and cheese curds. Besides its food, Culver's is known for its outstanding customer service, and the staff is committed to making sure diners enjoy their meals exactly as they like them. As such, you're welcome to make special requests that may not be on the menu, and some customers come up with extraordinary creations.

There is one request, though, that can help you achieve an exceptionally crunchy chicken sandwich, an item you shouldn't pass up, especially when you get a little bored of the chain's ButterBurgers. You can simply request that your chicken be cooked extra crispy. It's already an option when ordering fries online, but unfortunately, it isn't available when trying to order some other items, so you're going to have to request it in person. Nevertheless, according to one Redditor identifying as a Culver's employee, "you can get anything [on the menu] extra crispy or well done," and you can even order things extra, extra crispy, too. It's a request that won't cost you any money but will make all the difference in your chicken sandwich experience at this Wisconsin-based chain.

When you're at Culver's, there are many ways you can upgrade your order to make it unique besides just asking for it to be extra crispy, and you can elevate your chicken sandwich with just a few requests and elements from other menu items. Since Culver's is from the Dairy State, it makes sense to make your chicken sandwich super cheesy, and there are a couple of ways you can do that. When ordering online, you have the option of adding a slice of cheese to your sandwich, but if you're at a Culver's location, you can ask for all three types of cheese — American, cheddar, and Swiss. You can also order a side of Wisconsin Cheddar Cheese Sauce to drizzle over your chicken or dunk your sandwich into.

You can also play around with other combinations by replacing the protein in some other dishes. For instance, try creating a poultry version of the popular Culver's Deluxe sandwich, or enjoy a variety of meats in one bite by combining a burger patty and chicken. If you want a meltier experience, opt to replace the beef with chicken in the Sourdough Melt or Wisconsin Swiss Melt.

Alternatively, get creative with some of the many sauces that the burger chain has on its menu — this is where ordering your chicken extra crispy comes in handy. You can add marinara sauce and cheese to create a riff on a chicken parmesan burger or opt for barbecue sauce and coleslaw to create a Carolina-inspired barbecue chicken sandwich.
