Homestyle Fried Chicken Entrees

Cracker Barrel Just Debuted Cheesy Bacon Homestyle Fried Chicken

— March 5, 2023 — Lifestyle
Cracker Barrel is welcoming spring with some delicious new comfort foods, including Cheesy Bacon Homestyle Fried Chicken, new Loaded Steak Fries, and more.

A perfect entree for any day of the week, Cracker Barrel's new Cheesy Bacon Homestyle Fried Chicken features a little bit of everything. The dish starts with one piece of the brand’s signature Sunday Homestyle Chicken, which is then topped with bacon, cheese, crispy onion strings, and a drizzle of buttermilk ranch sauce. The chicken is served with your choice of two Country Sides and either Biscuits or Corn Muffins.

Alongside the new entree, Cracker Barrel is also adding new Loaded Steak Fries. This dish consists of the brand's signature steak fries topped with a creamy cheese sauce, more shredded Colby cheese, crispy bacon bits, and fresh green onions.

Both of the new dishes, as well as a number of other new offerings, are available now for a limited time.

Trend Themes
1. Homestyle Fried Chicken - There is potential for more restaurants to explore and innovate with homestyle fried chicken dishes, experimenting with new toppings and flavors.
2. Loaded Fries - As the popularity of loaded fries continues to grow, there is potential for more fast-food chains to add this dish to their menus and experiment with different topping combinations.
3. Limited Time Menu Offerings - As limited time menu offerings continue to drive customer engagement, more restaurants may begin to incorporate seasonal and rotating menu items to keep their customers coming back.
Industry Implications
1. Casual Dining - Casual dining chains such as Cracker Barrel may benefit from continued innovation in menu offerings to stay competitive and attract new customers.
2. Fast Food - Fast food chains may benefit from incorporating loaded fries onto their menus to capitalize on the growing trend and attract new customers.
3. Food and Beverage Manufacturing - As homestyle fried chicken and loaded fries grow in popularity, there is potential for food and beverage manufacturers to create pre-packaged versions of these dishes for consumers to enjoy at home.
