Church's Chicken is celebrating the 2021 2021 Smokehouse Season with the return of Bourbon Black Pepper Smokehouse Chicken, and the debut of the new Texas Sheet Cake Cup.
Church's fans may remember the Bourbon Black Pepper Smokehouse Chicken dish, which consists of a bone-in half chicken marinated in a savory, smoky seasoning, before being deep-fried (without any batter or breading). The chicken is then glazed with a bourbon-infused sauce and topped with fresh cracked black pepper.
Alongside the fan-favorite Bourbon Black Pepper Smokehouse Chicken, Church's Chicken is also offering a new New Texas Sheet Cake Cup. This sweet dessert is essentially a single-serve take on a classic chocolate Texas sheet cake, topped with rich chocolate frosting – the perfect option for ending any meal.
