Southern fried chicken? This is the original and best. If you want to order KFC you are going to want to know what you can order and how much it will cost. Today we are going to run through the entire KFC catering menu and prices for you to enjoy.
What is KFC?
Oh, only one of the world’s most well-known fast-food chains. Why is it so well known? Well, aside from the tasty food it is absolutely huge! In fact, worldwide KFC has over 18,000 outlets. So if you are looking for KFC catering, there is a reasonable chance that you will find one very close by.
KFC was established in 1955. It boasted few items on its menu, and as the name ‘Kentucky Fried Chicken’ would suggest it specialized in coating various chicken pieces in a ‘secret’ blend of herbs and spices, before frying it to golden brown perfection. While the recipe for their special coating is not quite so secret, people still flock to their doors to sample the KFC catering menu.
Nowadays you don’t just get chicken. There are several iconic things that people crave from the KFC menu. These include KFC pot pies, the KFC gravy (yum) and Zinger tower burgers!
The main draw to KFC aside from the food is how great value it is! Want to see what you get for the money? Be sure to check out our KFC catering menu and prices below.

What Does the KFC Catering Menu Include?
There are loads of delicious foods on the KFC catering menu. And you aren’t just limited to chicken. Here are examples of some of the things that you might like to order.
1. Bucket Meals
If you are looking to feed a crowd then this is almost certainly the option to go for. It is a bucket of food literally. You can choose how many ‘pieces’ you want in your bucket. This ranges from 8 pieces all the way up to a whopping 16 pieces of chicken!
As to what is in those buckets is entirely up to you. KFC offer several deals provided you aren’t too choosy about your chicken. Which will include a mixture of thighs, drumsticks, wings and tenders.
Alternatively, you can choose for yourself. We know that in our house one or two of our ‘picky eaters’ get a little squeamish about the bones. The a la carte buckets are just as good.
2. World Famous Chicken
This is more of a meal for one. You’ll find a selection of wings, drumsticks, thighs and tenders. Just in a smaller portion. If you don’t want to go for a bucket, but you feel like KFC’s world famous chicken isn’t going to be enough for you then it is well worth checking out the KFC al la carte catering menu. This allows you to select individual items to supplement your meal.
3. Box Meals
If you fancy a particular item, just in a larger quantity then this could be the one for you. Again you can mix and match.
4. Tenders
Tenders are the KFC version of nuggets. They tend to be a lot bigger, and are made out of whole strips of chicken breasts. If you are ordering KFC tenders make sure you get plenty of dips! Our favorite has to be sour cream, but as you’ll see on the KFC catering menu below, they aren’t expensive, so you could get a few!
5. Wings
KFC are the masters of wings. Our favorites are the hot and spicy wings that they occasionally add from time to time. Choose from boneless KFC wings or regular. This is an ideal choice if you are hosting a big night with friends and are looking for some easy to eat finger food that everyone will love.
6. Sandwiches
Don’t feel like you have to have a drumstick. The KFC burger sandwiches are heavenly. No beef here thanks! Just a thick chicken breast, coated to perfection and topped with KFC’s signature sauce.
7. Sides
The sides are what make KFC stand out head and shoulder above the rest. Who’d have thought that KFC gravy would be the best we’ve ever tried?

How do I Order from the KFC Catering Menu?
While KFC doesn’t cater to party events, that doesn’t mean that you can’t rely on them to cater for a crowd!
Bearing in mind that KFC buckets are huge, and they are well accustomed to making them there isn’t any reason why you couldn’t place a large catering order and feed everyone with KFC.
The first thing to do would be to show everyone the KFC menu and catering prices, before letting people choose (why not print out our own below?).
It is well worth calling ahead to your local KFC if you are going to place an order from the catering menu. That way they have time to prepare and you (and your guests) won’t be kept waiting.
From there all you need to do is place your order. You can do this online or alternatively call. There are delivery options available, but to avoid waiting we suggest you head down to KFC to pick up your order.
