In an effort to increase sales during the holiday season, Cracker Barrel is now offering Thanksgiving meals to-go for busy families. The handy new meals provide all the convince of ordering food from a restaurant, while still giving families a way to enjoy a meal together at home.
Cracker Barrel's new Family Meal To-Go is a comprehensive dinner option available in two different sizes. The first is the Heat n' Serve Holiday Family Meal To-Go, which feeds up to 10 people and features roasted turkey breast accompanied by a choice of three sides. The second option is the Homestyle Turkey nā Dressing Family Meal To-Go, which is intended for six people and features, turkey, cured ham and a choice of three sides. Both Thanksgiving meals to-go must be ordered 24 hours in advanced, but once picked up, they simply needed to be heated before serving.
