The KFC BBQ Lovers menu is being launched at participating locations in Canada to offer patrons with a decidedly saucy option to pick up this summertime. The menu consists of two items to choose from including the BBQ Lovers Sandwich and the BBQ Lovers Twister, which are both crafts with high-quality fried chicken and ample amounts of barbecue sauce. The menu items are perfect for avid fried chicken fans to try out, and balance out the smoky sweetness of the barbecue sauce with ingredients like pickles and mayo in the recipes.
The KFC BBQ Lovers menu comes as a convenient way to enjoy the flavors of a backyard barbecue at anytime, but will only be around for the summer months.
