BurgerFuel launches plant-based chicken burger


BurgerFuel continues to forge the trajectory of plant-powered products with a new plant-based chicken burger, Chook Free.

After the extraordinary success of its special edition plant-based beef burger, Beyond Beleaf, BurgerFuel has continued its quest to provide quality plant-based protein options for everyone. From August 6th, BurgerFuel will be launching Chook Free, a 100% vegan burger that features a chicken-free Chick’n patty.

Based on the successful gourmet mini burger, Chook Royale, Chook Free emulates the same flavour profile through a crispy yet juicy Chick’n patty, that looks and tastes like chicken, accompanied by vegan aioli, vegan provolone cheese, hand-cut salad and grilled pineapple, all served on mini artisan wholemeal buns.

The Chook Free Chick’n patty has 50% fewer calories than chicken, beef, pork and turkey and has 33% less fat than a standard piece of crumbed chicken. It’s made with non-GMO soy and wheat protein and contains no trans fats and has zero cholesterol. This burger is a good source of protein, is rich in iron and fibre and the production of the Chick’n patty has 90% less impact on land, water and resources than other chicken burger patties in the market.

Designed to be tried and enjoyed within every lifestyle, the gourmet mini special is a delicious option for meat-lovers, vegans and vegetarians alike. It is an accessible burger for those wanting to try a high-quality plant-based meat alternative for dietary, ethical or inquisitive reasons.
