POPEYES UK BRINGS THE HEAT WITH LIMITED-EDITION BUFFALO RANCH CHICKEN SANDWICH

Popeyes UK, the New Orleans-born chicken brand, is spicing things up with the launch of two new limited-edition menu items: the Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich and Buffalo Saucin’ Wings.

The Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich features a fried chicken fillet that has been marinated for 12 hours in Popeyes’ signature blend of Louisiana herbs and spices and coated in its iconic shatter-crunch coating, slathered with hot Buffalo sauce, cooling Ranch, and fresh pickles – all nestled in a warm brioche bun. Offering a delicious blend of tangy flavour and a hint of heat combined with the coolness of Ranch dressing, the Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich is a spicy spin on the iconic Popeyes Chicken Sandwich. For those looking to level up their order, the Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich also comes as a meal – complete with Popeyes fries and a drink.

Also fresh onto the UK scene, is the launch of Buffalo Saucin’ Wings, marking the first time sauced wings have graced Popeyes restaurant and drive-thru menus in the UK. Drizzled in a Popeyes house-developed, tangy Buffalo sauce for a poppin’ kick of heat, the Buffalo Saucin’ Wings are packed with a burst of flavour in every bite. Available in 5, 8, or 12 wings – or as part of a meal, including fries and a drink – these wings are a must-try for fans looking to spice up their order.

Also joining the menu is the Popeyes Louisiana BBQ Wrap. This tasty wrap features two succulent Popeyes® chicken tenders, a swirl of bold BBQ sauce and delicious smoked cheese, all wrapped up in a soft tortilla.

Dave Hoskins, Head of Food at Popeyes UK said:

“We are excited to announce the launch of Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich and Buffalo Saucin’ Wings. This marks the first time sauced wings have appeared on Popeyes’ restaurant and drive-thru menus in the UK following their success with fans in the US – plus a spicy new take on our famous Chicken Sandwich, which features our iconic shatter-crunch chicken. Both the sandwich and wings are made with our in-house developed sauces, created by our team following fan requests for more Popeyes flavour combos. Designed to be tangy with a tingle of heat, and paired with cooling Ranch, we’re confident that both new additions will get the nation’s taste buds poppin’ – and we can’t wait for people to try them.”

 

The launch of the Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich, Buffalo Saucin’ Wings, and Louisiana BBQ Wrap comes hot on the heels of the nationwide roll-out of Popeyes Brekkie Menu. Designed to shake up the UK grab-and-go breakfast scene, the menu features a mouth-watering range of breakfast favourites with a poppin’ New Orleans twist, including breakfast rolls, muffins, biscuits and Cajun Hash Browns.

The Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich, Buffalo Saucin’ Wings, and Louisiana BBQ Wrap will be available nationwide from 19th March in all Popeyes UK restaurants, drive-thrus, and via delivery.
