LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Kentucky Fried
Chicken® is delivering a touchdown this football season with the
introduction of its new Kentucky Fried Wings™. The chicken expert's
new, always hot and fresh wings are available in participating KFC
U.S. restaurants today as part of the permanent menu. Making this
even hotter, fans can try them out from the comfort of their own
home with free delivery* on kfc.com, the fried chicken chain's new
online delivery platform, Grubhub and Seamless.
Sure to be the MVP of this season's tailgate parties and more,
Kentucky Fried Wings are available classic (unsauced) or tossed in
your choice of three sauces: Nashville Hot, Buffalo or Honey BBQ –
all so finger lickin' good, you won't even need a Wet-Nap.
Thanks to Kentucky Fried Wings, gone are the days of waiting for
hot and fresh wings, or needing to call ahead with an order.
Kentucky Fried Wings are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside
and fried to perfection using KFC's proprietary process,
eliminating wait times that may make you late for kickoff.
"You would be hard pressed to find hot and fresh wings without
the wait anywhere else," said Andrea
Zahumensky, chief marketing officer, KFC U.S. "Whether you
are Team Nashville Hot or Team Honey BBQ, our Kentucky Fried Wings
are available on demand, revolutionizing your gameday dining
experience."
Now through November 24, customers
in the U.S. will automatically receive free delivery on orders $12+
when they order through kfc.com through Grubhub.com; Seamless.com,
Grubhub's NYC brand; or the respective brand apps. During this
promotional period, free delivery will be available at more than
2,600 participating KFC restaurant locations (no special code
needed).
Whether you're looking for a solo snack or to feed a tailgate,
Kentucky Fried Wings are available in a variety of quantities and
price points:
- Six-piece for $5
- 12-piece for $9.99
- 24-piece for $18.99
- 48-piece for $36.99 (available
via delivery only)
Prices may vary, tax extra.
Wings have become increasingly popular, especially as a top food
of choice during football season. The National Chicken Council
projected Americans would consume over 1.38 billion chicken wings
during the 2019 Super Bowl and according to a recent study by
OnePoll and Moore's Marinade and Sauces, average meat eaters devour
nearly 18,000 chicken wings in their lifetime.
To coincide with the launch of Kentucky Fried Wings, KFC will
release "Rudy III: He's Still Colonel Sanders But Now He Has Wings
for Sale," starring Sean Astin as
Colonel Rudy. Ads will begin airing on TV October 13.
*A small order delivery fee will apply for orders under
$12 (before tax, tip, and fees).
