The sandwich includes an Extra Crispy 100% white meat filet and is topped with hickory smoked bacon, KFC’s signature honey BBQ sauce, crispy fried onions, melted cheese and pickles. All these items are placed on a brioche bun.

KFC US CMO Nick Chavez said: “With the best tastes of summer and our finger lickin’ good fried chicken between two buttery brioche buns, the Ultimate BBQ Fried Chicken Sandwich is an invitation to savour every last joyful ‘bite’ of summer. It’s a BBQ in every bite.”

Furthermore, KFC is collaborating with go-to travel membership site Going.com to provide the guests who order the new sandwich on the KFC mobile app or website with a chance to win a trip to Aruba.
