Available 9 pm – 5 am only. · In-store & drive-through
The original Munchie Meal. Jumbo Jack as the anchor entrée, two Original Tacos for the snack run, three egg rolls for the wildcard, and a large drink to wash it all down. The configuration that launched the format in 2014 and has never left the menu since.
Item Breakdown | Cal | Fat | Protein | Solo Price | Munchies ($) | App: $ |
Jumbo Jack | 520 | 28g | 22g | $4.89 | $8.99 Saves $5.50 | $7.49 App price |

The Burger Munchie delivers 2,050 cal across 5 items for $8.99—$0.44 per 100 calories. The egg roll inclusion is what makes it unique: no other burger-based fast-food meal bundles an Asian-inspired snack as a standard component. Since 2014, this has been ordered more times than any other Munchie configuration.
03. Chicken Munchie Meal (Highest Protein)
Available 9 pm – 5 am only · In-store & drive-through
Built for the late-night protein seeker. Crispy chicken sandwich as the anchor, five nuggets for snacking, stuffed jalapeños for heat, and a large drink. The highest-protein standard Munchie Meal configuration on the 2026 menu is 52g total.
Item Breakdown | Cal | Fat | Protein | Solo Price | Munchies ($) | App: $ |

Highest savings of any standard Munchie Meal at $5.80 vs. solo ordering. The stuffed jalapeño inclusion is the configuration’s signature move—cream cheese meets heat in Slot B, providing a cooling contrast to the crispy sandwich heat. Best Munchie for protein-focused late-night orders.
04. Taco Munchie Meal (The Taco Run)
Available 9 pm – 5 am only · In-store & drive-through
Four tacos as the entrée anchor—the only Munchie Meal where a multi-unit snack food IS the main event. Mozzarella sticks for the pull-and-dip moment and mini churros for the sweet finish. The most festive, shareable Munchie Meal configuration.

Available 9 pm – 5 am only · New for 2026
The 2026 flagship Munchie Meal is built around the new Smashed Jack, Jack’s most significant burger launch in years. Two original tacos in Slot B keep the classic Munchie DNA intact, and seasoned curly fries anchor Slot C. The premium standard munchie is $9.99.

The Smash Munchie is the most calorie-efficient premium Munchie at 1,860 total cal—the Smashed Jack’s smash technique produces a crispier, more flavorful patty than a standard press, making it the strongest entrée anchor in the 2026 lineup. The app price of $7.99 is the best deal on any Smashed Jack build.
06. Spicy Munchie Meal (All Heat)
Available 9 pm – 5 am only · New for 2026

10. Munchie Meal Ordering Tips & Strategies (Insider Guide)
Twelve years of Munchie Meal orders have produced a clear set of strategies for getting maximum value, finding the right configuration for your situation, and avoiding the common first-timer mistakes.
Situation | Best Pick & Why |
First-time Munchie order | Taco Munchie — lowest price ($7.99), most varied flavour arc, easiest to share if needed |
Ordering solo at 1 am | Burger Munchie — the OG build, perfectly calibrated for one person eating across 30 minutes |
Maximum protein goal | Breakfast Munchie (62g standard) or VIP Chicken (75g if you have VIP status) |
Sharing between 2 people | Taco Munchie and Chicken Munchie are complementary builds with no overlap, covering all food groups |
Heat preference | Spicy Munchie — but order a water alongside the large drink. Three heat sources simultaneously are serious. |
Best app-only play | Smash Munchie at $7.99 app price — $8.29. Smashed Jack alone normally costs more than the whole meal |
VIP first unlock (20th order) | VIP Smash Munchie—the $10.47 saving is the single best first use of VIP status |
3 am breakfast craving | Breakfast Munchie with coffee—the only late-night fast food format with caffeine built in |
Pro tip: Munchie Meal flash deals (when active in the app) reduce the already-bundled price by a further $2–$5. 3. This is the only deal type that stacks with Munchie Meal pricing. Check the app between 8:30 pm and 9 pm before your order to catch any active flash deals before the window opens.
