Japan Kentucky Fried Chicken will launch "The American Burgers" in limited quantities from Wednesday, May 27 at Kentucky Fried Chicken (hereinafter: KFC) stores nationwide.
<Key Highlights of "The American Burgers"!>
◼ The authentic American world expressed through "city names." All 3 varieties arrive with outstanding volume and impact!
"The American Burgers" are packed with ingredients beloved in burger-hometown America. This series, which draws a huge response every year it goes on sale, is back again this year in full force. This time, to let you enjoy the American atmosphere right from the name, each burger is named after one of three American cities it evokes. The "NEW YORK style Onion Ring Fillet Burger" combines KFC's prized "Boneless Kentucky" with crispy onion rings, richly deep cheddar slice cheese, and garlic sauce for a supremely satisfying item. The garlic sauce layers the umami of bacon, onion, and garlic in perfect balance, achieving a hearty flavor reminiscent of a New York diner. Also arriving is the "LAS VEGAS style Double Down Fillet Burger" — worthy of its name from Las Vegas, city of entertainment — with an impact that's second to none: onion rings and cheddar slice cheese sandwiched between two pieces of "Boneless Kentucky" in place of a bun. This guilty-pleasure flavor is one we'd love those who want a truly filling meal, and meat lovers in particular, to try.
◼ KFC finally enters the avocado burger category! The new "TEXAS style Spicy Avocado Fillet Burger" inspired by guacamole
This time, the "TEXAS style Spicy Avocado Fillet Burger" — KFC's first-ever burger using avocado — makes its debut. A single item combining "Boneless Kentucky," avocado filling, and cheddar slice cheese, from which you can savor an American vibe just from the look of it. The spiced avocado filling is inspired by "guacamole," the paste-style condiment widely beloved in the American South including Texas. The addition of deeply rich, concentrated cheddar slice cheese further brings out the mellow quality of the avocado. Enjoy the rich, full flavor packed with plenty of avocado filling!
<Comment from the Product Development Team>
Development of the "TEXAS style Spicy Avocado Fillet Burger" — KFC's first-ever burger using avocado — began in 2024. After spending nearly two full years carefully considering taste, quality, and service operations, we arrived at the final product. The avocado, which we were most particular about, was considered in various forms including diced and paste, and ultimately we decided on a filling form incorporating diced avocado. The design maximizes the natural deliciousness of the avocado itself, while ensuring a stable appearance and quality even after time has passed. Another key point of focus was the addition of cumin and coriander, which allows a pleasant spice aroma to come through within the mellow richness of the avocado. The "TEXAS style Spicy Avocado Fillet Burger" — where "Boneless Kentucky" as the centerpiece meets a spicy avocado filling inspired by guacamole and rich cheddar slice cheese. As quantities are limited, don't miss out!
