\"\"Zarda Bar-B-Q\u2019s ultimate game-day BBQ sandwich creation is back for another season \u2013 The KC Royale with Cheese!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The KC Royale with Cheese<\/strong> is an all-new BBQ sandwich taste sensation made with Zarda\u2019s Award-Winning Limited Reserve Burnt Ends, melted Pepper Jack Cheese, tender pulled pork, melted Cheddar Cheese, Crispy Onion Straws, melted Provolone Cheese, Zarda Bar-B-Q sauce \u2013 all piled high on a toasted Roma Brioche bun.<\/p>\n

Yep! That\u2019s THREE layers of melted Cheese + TWO delicious layers of Zarda hickory smoked meats = ONE delicious signature sandwich: The KC Royale with Cheese!<\/p>\n

A portion of the proceeds made from the sale of The KC Royale with Cheese during the 2025 Kansas City Royals baseball season will go to benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City!<\/p>\n

Zarda Bar-B-Q COO, Terry Hyer:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve done a lot of great sandwiches over the years, but this one\u2019s got that extra bite, and we\u2019re glad it\u2019s to bring it back for the 2025 Royals season! <\/em>We tried a lot of combinations last year \u2013 and realized that no one had really upped the game with three flavors of cheese. And including the Ltd. Reserve Burnt Ends and Pulled Pork was a natural \u2013 they just taste great together. The onion straws and Zarda sauce give it an extra zesty kick. And the name, well it just fit: The KC<\/strong>\u00a0Royale with Cheese!\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Be prepared \u2013 once you try The KC Royale with Cheese, it won\u2019t be your last! And every sandwich also helps Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City!<\/p>\n

\"\"Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City CEO, Micheal Lawrence, commented:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to work with Zarda again this season. The continued partnership has raised over $100,000 for Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City over the last four years.\u00a0 Bringing Zarda back into this powerful partnership is exciting for the community while continuing to defend the potential for youth in Kansas City.\u00a0 All funds raised from this campaign will go to help match some of our 250 waiting Littles with caring, adult mentors.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

You can stop by and enjoy The KC Royale with Cheese at both Zarda locations throughout the baseball season from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily!<\/p>\n
