The KFC Australia Popcorn Chicken Slab is a new sandwich offering from the brand that is focused on providing consumers with an alternative way to enjoy the namesake bite-sized chicken snacks. The sandwich is named after the slang term for a 24-pack of beer in Australia and starts off with six connected dinner rolls as the bread base. Popcorn Chicken is then placed inside before being topped with cheese and barbecue sauce to make it a savory sandwich to enjoy.
The KFC Australia Popcorn Chicken Slab is capable of being broken up into several portions to serve to guests or a family and is priced at $10.95 AUD, but is only available for a limited time through November 2nd, 2020.
