The humble cheeseburger has had a good run. But in 2026, cheese lovers want more. And this February, KFC is answering their prayers with the launch of its cheesiest menu ever – the KFC Cheesy Melt Burger and Hot Cheese Sauce.
Starring the brand-new KFC Cheesy Melt Burger and incredible Hot Cheese Sauce side, it’s the ultimate glow-up to your favourite comfort food. It comes with delicious, pouring cheese designed to be customisable – for dipping, dunking and dripping however you like. The new menu brings next-level flavour in every bite, pour or dip. Melty, indulgent and seriously craveable, it’s the ultimate way to close out cosy season.
The Cheesy Melt Burger features KFC’s iconic Original Recipe chicken, topped with a crispy hash brown, cheese, onion chutney, and lettuce, all in a glazed sesame bun, all drizzled with Hot Cheese Sauce. Not just cheese in a burger, but cheese exactly the way you want.
The Hot Cheese Sauce is served on the side, putting you in charge of every oozy, melty moment. Whether you smother your bun, dunk your chicken or save the cheese sauce for once final glorious pour, the Hot Cheese Sauce puts you in control of just how cheesy your meal gets. It’s heavenly, rich and impossible to resist.
