BRISTOL, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 20: The KFC logo is pictured outside a branch of KFC that is closed due to problems with the delivery of chicken on February 20, 2018 in Bristol, England. KFC has been forced to close hundred of its outlets as a shortage of chicken, due to a failure at the company's new delivery firm DHL, has disrupted the fast-food giant's UK operation and is thought to be costing the fast food chain £1million a day.

After a very successful test run, KFC is getting ready to bring their new KFC Chicken Sandwich to chicken lovers everywhere.

When it comes to fried chicken, few brands have the recognition and loyalty that KFC does. If you’re old school, you still refer to them as Kentucky Fried Chicken but regardless, the fast food chain has been doing chicken since the 1950s and doing it really well.

When most people think of KFC they automatically think of a bucket, as in a bucket of chicken. There are few things in life as appealing as a big bucket of fried chicken with the Colonel’s face on the side sitting on the table as you fight over who gets the last drum. However, they want to be known for more then just buckets. Now they want to be known for their chicken sandwiches.

The new KFC Chicken Sandwich arrives nationwide.

To that end, the chain is rolling out their brand new KFC Chicken Sandwich to all corners of the country. As reported by the chicken lovers at Chewboom, the sandwich will begin appearing in select markets starting this week and should be everywhere by the end of February, 2021.

So what makes the new KFC Chicken Sandwich so good? How about a quarter-pound of all white meat chicken breast, double-breaded for extra crispiness topped with think cut pickles and the Colonel’s special mayo on a toasted brioche bun?

Yeah, if you think Chick-fil-A might be in trouble, you aren’t alone.

The new KFC Chicken Sandwich is currently available in select cities but if you want to know when it will be coming to a town near you, you can check on at KFC.com/FindTheSandwich. When you do find it, the sandwich will set you back four bucks or as part of a combo meal for seven.
