CHELSEA, Mass., April 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- al fresco all natural – America's #1 chicken sausage – today announced the launch of Gourmet Chicken Grillers, uncooked frozen chicken burgers, to help consumers "BBQ better". Just in time for summer, the new Grillers contain half the fat of a traditional beef patty and are the first offering from al fresco's new line of freezer products.

Gourmet Chicken Grillers go directly from the freezer to the grill, making summer meals and entertaining simple. Each Gourmet Chicken Griller is made with lean, skinless chicken meat, has no artificial ingredients, nitrates, nitrites or MSG, and is gluten-free.

"Grilling outside is the perfect way to gather friends and family, but preparation can be time-consuming and many traditional options are high in calories, fat and sodium," said Sarah Crowley, Director of Marketing for al fresco and Kayem Foods. "This new line is a stress-free, healthier option to pack flavor into your meals in minutes this summer."

Since Gourmet Chicken Grillers go straight from freezer to grill, there is no need to defrost or marinate. Like all al fresco products, Gourmet Grillers are made with high-quality all natural ingredients and seasoned with only the finest herbs and spices.

The patties are available in three delicious flavors:

• Sweet Italian
• Caramelized Onion
• Buffalo & Blue Cheese

al fresco's new line of Gourmet Chicken Grillers is now available in the freezer case at major grocery stores nationwide. Each package contains eight ready-to-cook patties (SRP $9.99).
