March 17, 2025 – KFC® is dropping an all-new “Dunk It Bucket”* – the brand’s first new bucket in nearly a decade – featuring also-new Mashed Potato Poppers, available nationwide starting today, while supplies last. The quadruple-threat Dunk It Bucket is packed with KFC’s hand-breaded Original Recipe® Tenders, Secret Recipe Fries and crispy Mashed Potato Poppers with your choice of craveable sauces – because more dunking and more sauce means more deliciousness.
KFC’s iconic mashed potatoes are getting a drool-emoji-worthy twist: creamy mashed potatoes golden fried for the perfect crunchy bite. Customers can go big with the Dunk It Bucket or grab them à la carte (available in a five-count with a side of warm gravy).
Snag a solo Dunk It Bucket for $7* or feed family, friends or teammates for $25 with a Double Dunk It Bucket**, creating your ultimate dunk combination with juicy hand-breaded tenders, perfectly seasoned fries, crunchy Mashed Potato Poppers, with choices in the sauce squad lineup including:
- Warm Gravy: A KFC all-star legend…gravy is officially a dipping sauce.
- Comeback Sauce: The MVP – it’s creamy, zesty and craveable.
- Honey BBQ: Sweet, smoky and tangy – you can’t go wrong with this fan favorite.
- Honey Mustard: A blend of sweetness and tangy mustard, and an iconic tenders teammate.
- Sticky Chicky Sweet and Sour Sauce: A balanced combination of sweet and tangy flavors including pineapple, garlic, vinegar and chili. If you love sweet and sour, you’re going to love this.
- Classic Ranch: Our signature ranch…need we say more?
- Buffalo Ranch: A perfect pairing of the classic kick of Buffalo sauce smoothed out with a creamy ranch, blended peppers, buttermilk, herbs and spices.
