The trio of test markets will help choose White Castle’s next big flavor moment
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — White Castle, the innovator of The Original Slider, is inviting the Queen City, Derby City and the Garden State to take part in a delicious decision, one that could help determine upcoming additions to the menu. America’s first fast-food restaurant is rolling out the Cheddar Smoked Sausage Slider and Pretzel Nibblers in these three markets. The response at local Castles to these bold new bites will help determine whether they earn a spot on White Castle’s menu nationwide.
The Cheddar Smoked Sausage Slider features a smoked sausage link infused with cheddar cheese, topped with caramelized onions and served on White Castle’s pillowy soft signature Slider bun.
Perfectly shareable and satisfyingly salty, the Pretzel Nibblers are soft and chewy pretzel nuggets, fried to a golden brown and tossed in kosher salt, making them the ultimate dipping companion for White Castle’s warm, creamy cheese sauce.
White Castle’s culinary team continues to find creative ways to deliver craveable flavor and indulgent combinations, introducing fresh twists on familiar favorites that make every visit a little more exciting.
“At White Castle, we love giving our Cravers a seat at the table when it comes to what’s the next star limited-time-offer on our menu,” said Jamie Richardson, vice president at White Castle. “We’ve always believed that the best ideas come from those who know the Crave best — our customers. These new test items bring big, bold flavor in bite-sized form, and we can’t wait to see if Cravers in the three markets decide if they will earn a place on our menu.”
Cravers in Cincinnati, Louisville and New Jersey can visit their local Castle to cast their vote, one delicious bite at a time. The Cheddar Smoked Sausage Slider and Pretzel Nibblers are available while supplies last.
