LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Kentucky Fried Chicken, a unit of Yum! Brands Inc., announced that a favorite limited-time offer item will return on Nov. 18, with a little more kick.

The Nashville Hot Chicken & Waffles will pair the quick-service restaurant with Hot Chicken to the top of its Belgian Liege-style waffles. 

The combination will be served in three different ways. A one breast, two-piece thigh and drum, or three-piece tenders with or without Nashville Hot Sauce — complete with a waffle and a side of Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup. Next a Big Basket meal that includes two waffles and two syrups, with a choice of two-piece white meat, three-piece dark meat, or four-piece tenders, with or without Nashville Hot sauce. 

Finally, a sandwich option is available with the KFC’s Extra Crispy fried chicken breast filet with or without Nashville Hot sauce and sandwiched between two waffles and served with a side of Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup.

“Our Nashville Hot Fried Chicken and Chicken & Waffles are arguably two of the biggest fried chicken innovations of all time,” said Andrea Zahumensky, chief marketing officer, KFC US. “Now we're combining them into one amazing union that’s sure to be the next big thing in America. It doesn’t get hotter than that.”

KFC started serving Nashville Hot Chicken in January 2016. Chicken & Waffles came on the menu last year in November 2018. 

The waffles are made with a yeast-raised dough instead of a batter and incorporate pearl sugar imported from Belgium that contributes sweetness and a crunchy outer texture. 

KFC Nashville Hot Chicken & Waffles will also be delivered free through Grubhub until Nov. 24. Customers in the US will automatically receive free delivery when they order through kfc.com or Grubhub.com; Seamless.com, Grubhub’s NYC brand; or the respective brand apps. 2,600 participating locations are part of the promotion.
