For a limited time, KFC customers in New Zealand can get their hands on the saucy new Gravy Burger.
Available for a limited time, the new Gravy Burger consists of a sesame seed burger bun slathered with Gravynaise, and topped with an Original Recipe or Zinger Fillet, a slice of cheese, and a crispy hash brown that serves as a type of bowl for the generous portion of gravy poured on top.
The limited-edition menu item first made an appearance in the U.K. where it is now a Christmastime staple. The new Gravy Burger is now making an appearance in New Zealand because the country celebrates a sort of Christmas in July or Midwinter Christmas since December 25th actually falls in the middle of their own summer.
