The Wendy's Hoosier Biscuit Bowl is being launched as a satiating breakfast menu item for patrons to try out as a way to satisfy hunger in the cold weather. The meal consists of homestyle seasoned potatoes along with buttery biscuits, Southern-style sausage and gravy with a freshly prepared fried egg and shredded cheddar cheese on top. These ingredients combine to give the meal the perfect profile when on the hunt for a way to fuel up before a long day of work or outdoor activities. The meal is only being offered at participating locations in Indiana.
The Wendy's Hoosier Biscuit Bowl is being launched with the help of former Hoosier basketball start Christian Watford who has teamed up with the brand to give out free servings at the 1450 W Morris Street location in Indianapolis for one morning only.
