New Offering Available April 14; Transforms Both the Menu and the Brand, While Responding to Consumer Demand

LOUISVILLE, Ky.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– When nearly four in five servings of fried chicken in the U.S. are served “off the bone” – strips, bites and filets – what’s the most famous fried chicken restaurant in the world to do? For KFC, the answer was simple: Get rid of the bones.

KFC is introducing Original Recipe Boneless on April 14 – boneless, skinless pieces of both white and dark meat chicken, hand breaded using the Original Recipe® made famous by Colonel Harland Sanders. It’s KFC for the way consumers live – and eat chicken – today. It’s everything they love about Original Recipe chicken, but without the bones.

“Our customers have seen the beginning of a menu revolution at KFC over the past several months, as we’ve introduced new, contemporary products such as Original Recipe Bites, Chicken Littles®, Li’l Bucket™ Kids Meals and Dip’ems™,” said John Cywinski, President of KFC U.S. “Now we’re proud to introduce the flagship product on the KFC menu, Original Recipe Boneless. This is more than just a promotional product; it’s a new way of doing business at KFC. “

While the world-famous flavor of Original Recipe chicken continues to receive rave reviews around the world, consumers are increasingly seeking out boneless, skinless chicken. Only KFC can give them everything they want in one product.

“We’ve never seen such positive reaction to a test product,” Cywinski said. “Original Recipe Boneless is a real game-changer that transforms how customers think about KFC. Bottom line, it’s a big idea and we’re going to have some fun with it.”

Beginning on the 14th, customers can enjoy a two-piece Boneless Combo for just $4.99, including a piece of dark meat, a piece of white meat, an individual side item, a biscuit, and a medium drink. For family dinners, KFC is offering a 10-piece mixed bucket, which includes four pieces of Boneless …read more

KFC’s Original Recipe Bites Now Paired with America’s Most Classic Dipping Sauce – KFC‘s World Famous Gravy


Long-Time Gravy Fanatics Inspire Combination with KFC’s Most Popular New Menu Item of 2012

LOUISVILLE, Ky.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– It was difficult for chicken fans to find authentic bite-sized chicken made for grown-ups until last summer when KFC introduced Original Recipe Bites – big bite-sized pieces made with 100 percent breast meat and freshly prepared every day using the Colonel’s Original Recipe of 11 herbs and spices. This week KFC introduces a match made in heaven, pairing its modern grown-up Bites with a classic grown-up sauce: Original Recipe Bites with Dipping Gravy.

“When we introduced Original Recipe Bites last year, KFC set the standard for what bite-sized chicken should be,” said Jason Marker, Chief Marketing Officer for KFC US. “Pairing Original Recipe Bites with Dipping Gravy is not only an homage to Colonel Sanders and the high standards he put on gravy taste, it’s also a direct response to the thousands of ‘fanatics’ that rave about our gravy every day.”

Almost immediately upon its introduction, Original Recipe Bites became a chicken cult phenomenon and a hot item on KFC menus from coast to coast. In fact, KFC has sold more than 300 million Original Recipe Bites since launching the product in July of last year. This positive response came with only one request: fans asked for another delectable dipping sauce for KFC‘s Original Recipe Bites. It didn’t take long for KFC to decide that its world famous gravy was the perfect pairing.

The chefs in the KFC test kitchen expect gravy to be a popular dipping sauce for Bites, since it is served hot and features the signature flavor fans rave about. In addition, sauce lovers have other dipping options at KFC, including Creamy Buffalo (which debuted in 2012), Honey BBQ, Ranch and Honey Mustard.

Original Recipe Bites with Dipping Gravy are available in a six-piece combo for only $3.99. Also available is the KFC Eight-Piece Meal, which …read more
