Popeyes, the beloved Louisiana chicken chain, has recently launched an exciting new menu in the UK. The Savin' Menu offers delicious options at affordable prices, starting at just £1.99. This is great news for fans of Popeyes, known for its "phenomenal" and "sensational" food, who can now "go big on flavour" without spending a fortune.
The menu features some of Popeyes' classic items, such as chicken tenders and wings. These dishes are famous for their signature "shatter crunch," and now customers can enjoy them at a fraction of the cost. Other tempting options include the Savin' Wrap for £1.99, fries for £1.99, and a biscuit and gravy for £2.59. For those looking for a heartier meal, there's also Mac and Cheese for £3.50 and the Gravy Savin' Box for £5.69, which includes three chicken wings, regular fries, and a pot of gravy.
All of these mouthwatering dishes are available daily from 11am until closing time at Popeyes locations across the UK or on the Popeyes UK app. But that's not all - for a limited time, Popeyes is also offering a new £5 wrap meal. This deal includes a choice of classic or spicy wrap, regular fries, and a regular drink, saving customers £1.99. This offer is only available until January 31, so hurry in to try it before it's gone.
But wait, there's more! Popeyes is also bringing back a fan-favorite - the Buffalo Ranch Sandwich. This delectable sandwich features a Shatter Crunchin' chicken fillet, made from 100% fresh chicken, marinated for 12 hours in Popeyes' signature blend of Louisiana herbs and spices. It's then topped with hot Buffalo sauce, cool Ranch, fresh pickles, and served on a warm brioche bun.
According to Tom Crowley, CEO of Popeyes UK, the Savin' Menu is just one way they are constantly striving to give their fans the best taste of their famous fried chicken at an affordable price. "With the complete refresh and relaunch of our Savin' Menu, we're hoping even more people can enjoy the taste of Popeyes to brighten the January blues and get into the Louisianan spirit without breaking the bank," he says.
In addition to the new menu, Metro had the opportunity to visit Popeyes UK HQ and learn the secrets behind their famous fried chicken. The key, it seems, is all in the "magic tossing" technique used when adding batter to the chicken. The chicken is tossed in a seasoned flour mix exactly 20 times, then coated in batter, and tossed back in the flour another 20 times before frying. This "magic tossing" method creates the perfect crispy texture that Popeyes is known for.
Dave Hoskins, head of food at Popeyes UK, explains, "If you tap [the chicken] very sharply, you see all these nodules come, and that's what the famous shatter crunch is. It's the batter doing that for us, with adding the aeration in the flour. As the little nodules cook, that's what gives you all the crispy bits."
