Jack in the Box brought back the ‘Really Big Chicken Sandwich Combo’ for its summer promotion on Monday, a meal deal that targets summer travelers on tight budgets.

Called a “guest favorite” by company officials, the $3.99 combination meal includes a Really Big Chicken Sandwich, a small drink and a small order of seasoned curly fries. The sandwich has two breaded chicken patties, lettuce, tomato, bacon, cheese and a mayo-onion sauce on a jumbo bun.

“It’s a great value, especially for hungry consumers on a tight budget,” Tracy Dunn, Jack in the Box Inc. director of menu marketing and promotions, said in a statement.

Jack in the Box has been focusing on bundled meal promotions to stem rising food costs.

In the second quarter, the company introduced the All American Jack Burger with fries and a drink for $4.99, a promotion that company officials said was very popular and made up a significant portion of the menu mix.

San Diego-based Jack in the Box Inc. operates or franchises about 2,200 restaurants in 19 states, as well as the 500-unit Qdoba Mexican Grill brand.
