I just saw this on a flyer I found in my mailbox today.

Says "New Southern BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich".

I had no idea they came out with this.

I wonder what it tastes like? Anyone else see or try this?

I can't imagine this being anything but a "Boil in bag and serve" product.

Something tells me that KFC isn't going to be slow roasting a Pork shoulder in their Biscuit ovens overnight any time soon... although that would smell awesome if they did :)

Given how it's KFC, I imagine it's very, very salty.

Here in Canada, they also started selling this thing called the Big Boss. Far as I can tell, it's just a ripoff of a big Mac, but with fried chicken instead of beef patties.

They also have "Mojito" drink for summer. Sadly non-alcoholic. I'm guessing it's mint flavoured Sprite.

Its not as good as a McRib, and not from the same planet as good pulled pork. For a chain, Hard Rock used to have a decent pulled pork sandwich, but we have a dozen great BBQ places around the OC, haven't bothered since the service tend to vary so much at Hard Rock.

KFC is disgusting. People need to stay away from that shit.

Popeye's is where it's at if you want fried chicken.

wrong. Bojangles is where it's at for FF fried chicken.

Popeyes is somewhat passable, but it's inferior fried chicken for inferior subhumans. It's good in a pinch, I guess, when all else fails.

as for the KC--yes, KC has a rightful claim, with real history, to be called the BBQ capitol. Based primarily as a hub for the meat industry during the industrial age, and a landing ground for the various US styles. I think they may have developed their own somewhere along the way, but it's the one place where you seem to be able to get a decent representation of all US styles of BBQ. Whether or not they have their own unique style isn't really the point.

I wouldn't call them that, though. It's obviously NC: where the method was first imported by Spanish explorers and where BBQ was first established in the US, then spread out to all the inferior states with their obviously inferior methods and meats.

Well, let's call it the "Birthplace of BBQ." How about that? We are "First in Flight," after all. (yeah--screw you, Ohio!)

Arguing over where in America BBQ started is like arguing which state invented Christianity. Barbecue is a cooking style that predates our nation; claiming ownership on the invention just makes you look like an asshole. Now you can certainly have a preference as to regional BBQ, I get that. But don't claim you invented the thing.

It can't be that great, because I've never heard of it. :hmm:

Here in Ontario, it's a three way showdown between KFC, Popeye's, and Marry Brown's. Marry Brown's being the worst of the three.

Bojangles is limited to the southeast region of the US. You're in Canada anyway, so you don't deserve real Fried Chicken, apparently--hence the saturation of KFC in your area. Sorry, bro. :(

We used to have Church's and that was way better than the other 3 listed.
