KFC reveals new Christmas menu including stuffing and cranberry – but fans all say they’ve missed a trick
KFC has unveiled its new Christmas menu including twists on classic festive flavours – but fans say the fast food chain has missed a trick.
The home of fried chicken is making two major additions to its offering from November 13.
Foodies will be able to pick up the Stuffing Stacker Burger from £7.99 while the Stuffing Tower Burger will hit menus from £6.49.
Customers can pick up the two new additions at their nearest KFC branch or via delivery until January 1, 2024.
Bear in mind if you get the items delivered you may have to pay a small fee.
Meanwhile, you can find your nearest KFC branch by using the fast food chain’s locator tool on its website.
The Stuffing Stacker Burger combines two original recipe chicken fillets with sage and onion stuffing and spicy cranberry sauce, all in a soft brioche bun.
Meanwhile, foodies looking to get something similar but slightly smaller should opt for the Stuffing Tower Burger.
It features all the same ingredients but with just one chicken fillet instead of two.
We have asked KFC what the calorie information is for both of the new burgers and whether they have been on menus before and will update this story when we have heard back.
Some fans have claimed the fast food chain has missed a trick with the two new additions though, questioning why there is no turkey on the menu this year.
One said: “Not really a Xmas burger as it’s chicken and not turkey.”
Meanwhile, a second added: “You should do a turkey burger and call it the KFT!
“As well as change the spelling of Christmas to Kristmas.”
A third staked their claim for a new menu item, stating: “Kentucky Fried Turkey bargain bucket yep.”
It’s not the first time KFC has launched a festive menu for fried chicken fans.
The chain released a “hash brown gravy boat” for the first time in 2020, bringing back the quirky item last year too.
In 2019, the fast food chain launched a completely new burger for the festive season which came with a fried hash brown.
The latest news from KFC comes after the fast food chain unveiled new seasoning for its fries, based on the classic original recipe flavour.
The Sun even tried the new chips to see how they stood up.
The chain isn’t the only one to unveil its Christmas menu and stir up excitement among foodies either.
Greggs revealed its highly anticipated festive menu on Wednesday, with the items available to buy the following day.
Customers can pick up everything from a Spicy Vegetable Curry Bake to a Mint Hot Chocolate and Salted Caramel Latte.
Meanwhile, the popular Festive Bake is back, combining a crumb-topped pastry, pieces of chicken, sage and onion stuffing and sweetcure bacon, covered in a creamy sage and cranberry sauce.
A number of supermarkets have already unveiled their Christmas menus too, including M&S, Asda and Iceland.
