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*.
