No, not all Hungry Jack's locations are halal; only selected stores offer a limited halal-certified menu, so you must check for specific certification or in-store certificates at your local restaurant, with locations in various states like WA, VIC, NSW, and QLD getting certified. While the company is Australian-owned and uses quality beef, the halal status depends on the individual franchise's certification, so always look for the official certificate or a list of halal products in-store.

KFC in Australia is not universally halal, but many locations use chicken from suppliers like Steggles and Lilydale that are certified halal, meaning the meat itself is processed according to Islamic law.
