LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 10, 2024  /PRNewswire/ -- KFC is making it a saucy summer with a new roster of its popular KFC Saucy Nuggets and wallet-friendly everyday deals (all available starting today).

KFC's popular saucy nuggets are getting a shakeup just in time for summer! Based on consumer feedback, KFC selected this season's sauces, keeping two fan-favorites, Korean BBQ and Honey Sriracha Saucy Nuggets. Joining the summer sauce line-up is Honey BBQ, a KFC fan-favorite that will be sauced on KFC Nuggets for the first time, with more saucy news to come later this summer:  

• Honey BBQ: A sweet, smoky, and tangy sauce with brown sugar and honey rounding out the tanginess of tomato and secret spices. This fan-favorite classic BBQ sauce is made for the traditionalists.
• Korean BBQ: A sweet and savory umami sauce with soy sauce, garlic, sugar, and sesame. This is the sauce for the global flavor explorers and fans of umami flavor.
• Honey Sriracha: A sweet heat sauce using a blend of red chili peppers, garlic, and honey. Playing into the demand for sweet heat flavor, this sauce is for you if you have a little bit of sweetness plus a little bit of heat in you.

For just $5.99*, try 10 KFC Saucy Nuggets dripping in your favorite sauce or make it a combo with Secret Recipe Fries and a drink.
