Hardee’s secret menu holds seven off-menu orders, each built from components already behind the counter. Sausage gravy, Made From Scratch™ biscuits, Hash Rounds®, charbroiled Angus patties and hand-breaded chicken fillets do the work between them. Nothing here needs a special order.
Hardee’s crews key the closest listed item and add the rest to the ticket, because no register button carries any of these names. Describing the build rather than the nickname gets the order right first time, in whichever restaurant it goes into.
The short answer
Order from the Hardee’s secret menu by describing the build rather than the nickname. The Harold puts Biscuit ‘N’ Gravy™ in a bowl under scrambled eggs, Hash Rounds® and shredded cheese. Chicken Stuffed Super Star sets a hand-breaded fillet between the two charbroiled patties of a Super Star®.

Hardee’s Secret Menu Items and Prices
Hardee’s secret menu never prints on the board, and none of the seven rings up under its own name. Each order starts from a listed item, then takes an addition the kitchen already stocks. Those listed items each carry a price and a calorie figure of their own.
The Harold began in small-town Illinois, and the rest travel across the Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s system. That system shares one kitchen layout and one supply list. A spare chicken fillet, a ladle of gravy or a leaf of lettuce is all any of them asks for. Availability still sits with the individual restaurant.
Hardee’s Secret Menu Breakfast Builds
Breakfast supplies the two orders that regulars name outright. The Harold turns a biscuit, a ladle of sausage gravy and a scoop of Hash Rounds® into a bowl, finished with shredded cheese. Loaded Omelet Biscuit with Gravy takes the same ladle over a biscuit the printed menu already carries.
| Item | How to order it | Base price |
|---|---|---|
| The Harold | Ask for a Harold by name, or for Biscuit ‘N’ Gravy in a bowl with scrambled eggs, Hash Rounds and shredded cheese over the top | $3.19 |
| Loaded Omelet Biscuit with Gravy | Ask for a Loaded Omelet Biscuit with a side of sausage gravy poured over it, or with hot sauce and jalapenos | $4.69 |
Hardee’s Secret Menu Charbroiled Builds
Charbroiled builds run off the Star burgers rather than the biscuit line. Chicken Stuffed Super Star opens a Super Star® around a hand-breaded spicy fillet. That breading declares egg and milk. Low Carb It swaps the bun for a lettuce wrap, and Add an Egg borrows from the breakfast line before it shuts.
| Item | How to order it | Base price |
|---|---|---|
| Chicken Stuffed Super Star | Ask for a Super Star with Cheese and a Spicy Chicken Sandwich, then set the chicken fillet between the two beef patties | $7.79 |
| Low Carb It | Ask for a Famous Star wrapped in lettuce in place of the bun, which works on any of the Star burgers | $5.99 |
| Add an Egg | Ask during breakfast hours for a folded egg added to a Famous Star, and order a second egg if you want it | $5.99 |
Hardee’s Secret Menu Sides and Sweet Builds
Fryer and warmer supply the last two. Secret Sauce Dip asks for the Star burgers’ Special Sauce in a cup beside the fries, which the board never lists on its own. Apple Turnover a la Mode finishes warm pastry with cinnamon roll icing or a scoop of ice cream.
| Item | How to order it | Base price |
|---|---|---|
| Secret Sauce Dip | Ask for a cup of the Star burgers’ Special Sauce alongside Natural-Cut French Fries | $3.25 |
| Apple Turnover a la Mode | Ask for an Apple Turnover with cinnamon roll icing over the pastry, or with ice cream on the side where a restaurant carries it | $1.69 |
