The KFC Original Honey BBQ is back starting October 6th! Enjoy it with chicken, tenders, and the KFC Chicken Sandwich, plus exclusive Scary Good Deals.
If you thought the return of wedges and wings was enough to make your taste buds do a happy dance, KFC is cranking the flavor up even higher. Starting October 6th, fans across the country can celebrate the long-awaited return of KFC Original Honey BBQ, the sweet-and-smoky sauce that became a cult classic in the late 1990s.
KFC Original Honey BBQ
First introduced decades ago, Original Honey BBQ quickly captured hearts for its perfect balance of flavor, leaving chicken lovers craving more. Social media feeds have been flooded with copycat recipes, nostalgia posts, and passionate pleas for its comeback (as KFC claims). So, now, KFC is finally answering the call.
“KFC’s Original Honey BBQ wasn’t just a menu offering, it became a cultural touchstone that fans have been craving and asking us to bring back for years,” said Catherine Tan-Gillespie, president, KFC U.S. “What better way to continue our KFC comeback than to bring back this legendary flavor and reintroduce it in a bigger and bolder way — on everything.”
When KFC says “everything,” they mean it. This time, fans can enjoy the legendary sauce on classic pieces of chicken, the KFC Chicken Sandwich, tenders, and more. The brand even gave its iconic wet napkin a glow-up, because with all that sticky, saucy goodness, you’ll need one that can handle it all.
Throwback Pricing on Chicken Sandwich
Feeling nostalgic? KFC is rolling back the clock with a $3.99 Chicken Sandwich, letting fans enjoy big flavor at a small price. Available in Classic or Spicy, each sandwich features an Extra Crispy chicken breast on a toasted brioche bun, topped with pickles and the Colonel’s real mayo (or spicy mayo).
Scary Good Deals for Halloween
October just got even more tempting. KFC is offering Scary Good Deals exclusively for Rewards members via the app and website. From October 19–31, fans can unlock exclusive offers like a Free Classic Chicken Sandwich with a $10 purchase, 50% off 12-piece chicken-only buckets, and 50-piece nuggets for just $20.
The KFC Original Honey BBQ comeback isn’t just about nostalgia. Also, it’s about delivering more sauce, more flavor, and more fun than ever. So grab your wet napkin, pick your favorite menu item, and get ready to taste a legendary flavor reborn.
