Burger King unveils NEW Katsu range and fans can try for FREE before it launches nationwide

Burger lovers across the country can rejoice, as Burger King® UK has announced a mouth-watering Katsu Curry range including four, innovative new burgers.

Available in participating restaurants from 8th March, the range features a Japanese-inspired twist on iconic fan-favourite menu items, the Whopper® and Chicken Royale in the form of a Katsu Chilli Whopper® and Katsu Royale.

What’s more, the two new hero specials are also available meat-free with plant-based and vegan options.

To help celebrate the launch, those in the know can claim a free second burger when they order any burger* from the Katsu range via the Burger King app between 4th – 7th March, meaning they can try it before anyone else in the country.

The Katsu Royale and Katsu Chilli Beef Whopper®.

Fans can tuck into a Katsu Chilli Whopper® which is topped with cheese and a rich katsu curry sauce, and garnished with crunchy pickled slaw, crispy onions and chilli sauce, while the Katsu Royale boasts crispy onions, mayo, katsu sauce and a crunchy pickled slaw.

The Plant-based Katsu Chilli Whopper® features Burger King’s signature Plant-based Whopper® patty with chilli sauce, crispy onion, pickled slaw and katsu curry sauce while the Katsu Vegan Royale heroes a Vegan Royale burger, with katsu sauce, pickled slaw, crispy onion and a signature vegan mayo.

All items in the range are served up in Burger King’s trademark golden bun and finished with a sprinkling of sesame seeds.

Katie Evans from Burger King® UK said: “We know Katsu curry is one of the nation’s favourite flavours, so we can’t wait for people to try these twists on our classic Whopper® and Royale. We’re promising new specials that max on flavour, with vegan and vegetarian options that taste almost identical.”

The Katsu range is available until September 2022 so fans will need to order via the app or head to their local restaurant quick to get a bite of the action.
