Cajun Turkey is Back at Participating Locations!

This holiday season bring a piece of Louisiana to your dinner table with a Cajun Turkey from Popeyes. Popeyes Cajun Style Turkeys, approximately 9 to 13 pounds, are infused with a unique blend of Louisiana seasonings then flash-fried, creating a unique, crispy coating. Roasting finishes out the process and leaves the turkey crispy on the outside while remaining succulent and flavorful on the inside. The once-a-year limited time offer is available at participating restaurants through December, or until supplies last. Participating restaurants will be indicated on the Popeyes website with a special Cajun Turkey icon under the restaurant location address.
