New Red Rooster Cheeseburger just dropped — here's why fans are already ‘obsessed'
Winter is the ultimate comfort food weather, and Red Rooster has a new cheeseburger that will top all others.
From July 2, the iconic Aussie chicken brand is launching a brand-new menu obsession: the Red Rooster Cheeseburger, a crunchy, saucy, indulgent take on the classic that promises to shake up the burger scene as only Reds can.
Red Rooster, affectionately known as Reds, has already proven its chops in the fried chicken gam,e and now it's stepping up with a burger that's built to impress.
This isn't your average cheeseburger; it's a full-flavoured, cheese-loaded creation stacked with Reds' legendary crunchy chicken tenders.
Featuring a signature US-style smokey cheese sauce (exclusive to Red Rooster), and a slice of melty cheese, all nestled in a soft toasted bun.
According to Ashley Hughes, Red Rooster's Director of Marketing, the team went all-in on fan feedback.
'We've had fans begging us for a cheesy burger, so we went big. This is a whole new breed of burger, a rich, cheesy flavour bomb that's made to be devoured. We don't do things halfway,this is how Red Rooster does burgers.'
Test groups have already raved, calling it 'next-level good' and 'a full-blown cheese hug.'
It's crunchy, it's cheesy and it's unapologetically crave-worthy.
And for those wondering whether indulging in cheese could come with a side of guilt, science says no.
A 2024 study in Nature Human Behaviour found that cheese lovers reported better overall mood than those who preferred fruit. Another study in Nutrients (2023) even linked regular cheese consumption to improved brain function in older adults.
Thanks to tyrosine, an amino acid found in cheese that stimulates dopamine, the 'feel-good' neurotransmitter, your brain is wired to enjoy it.
So yes, that Red Rooster Cheeseburger might actually put you in a better mood. You're welcome.
Even better, cheese lovers can unlock exclusive, limited-time-only menu items via the Reds App or Red Rooster's website here, available through Reds Exclusives. The line-up includes:
