Popeyes has released many food items, but this announcement could be the highlight of their summer entry so far.
Popeyes introduces Boneless Wings as a permanent new menu item nationwide. These wings come in six signature flavors: Classic, Honey Lemon Pepper, Signature Hot, Honey BBQ, Sweet ‘N Spicy, and Roasted Garlic Parmesan. Made from tender all-white meat chicken breast, the boneless wings are hand-battered, breaded, and fried to crispy perfection, offering a choice between mild or spicy flavors.
Popeyes teamed up with comedian Jimmy O. Yang, who was known for his skepticism about boneless wings, to change their perception. After trying Popeyes’ new offering, Yang openly praised them, stating he is now a “boneless believer.”
Plus, Popeyes offers a free 6-piece Boneless Wings with any $10 purchase made through their app or website until July 14th.
More Popeyes News This Year
Popeyes has been on a rollout this year, and with all the releases, news, and deals, they’re likely in for more announcements! But here are some of Popeyes’ popular food releases that you might want to know.
Popeyes offered special deals on their fried chicken with the return of the $6.99 Big Box and the nationwide launch of the $20 Bigger Box. The Big Box was already an absolute chicken feast on its own, including two pieces of Popeyes’ signature chicken in mild or spicy options, two regular sides, and one biscuit. Many customers were already familiar with the Big Box and appreciated its offerings. As for the Bigger Box, it featured a choice of either ten pieces of Popeyes’ crispy fried chicken or their chicken tenders, along with four biscuits, all for the very affordable price of $20.
Next, Popeyes had a limited-edition promo where they offered reward members a FREE chicken sandwich with 600 bonus points for only a $10 minimum purchase. This promo was a gesture of appreciation to its loyal customers for National Customer Appreciation Day on May 17, 2024. It also served as a strategic marketing tactic for their new menu item, the Golden BBQ Chicken Sandwich.

Are The New Boneless Wings Better Than The Regular Wings?
Popeyes‘ announcement of the boneless wings is probably a notable innovation in its continuous improvement of menu items. Boneless wings are set to be a permanent item and are available in different flavors: Classic, Honey Lemon Pepper, Honey BBQ, Signature Pepper, Sweet ‘n Spicy, and Roasted Garlic Parmesan. Each of these flavors is made from juicy and tender all-white chicken breast, offering two options for its spiciness: mild or spicy. The boneless wings are hand-battered, breaded, and then fried to achieve the crispy texture that the fast food brand is known for.
The announcement is set to spread among consumers quickly, but Popeyes partnered with Jimmy O. Yang, a popular comedian who is a ‘non-believer’ of the boneless wings, to testify that the new offering. Popeyes is offering yet another great deal to promote the launch of boneless wings. For a $10 purchase, you can get free 6-piece wings when you order through their website or via the app until July 14th. If you still believe boneless wings are not on the same level as regular wings, maybe try their promo.

From The Club
I will not be surprised if this bold announcement from Popeyes receives positive feedback. The fact that people are arguing about which is better, regular or boneless wings, is enough to intrigue consumers. Personally, I really love boneless wings; they are easier to consume and not messy at all. Oh, and if you plan to try the boneless wings, order online so you can enjoy the free six wings!
