Cracker Barrel Unveils Festive Holiday Menu to Celebrate Togetherness and Tradition
A Heartwarming Holiday at Cracker Barrel
As the holiday season approaches, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store is preparing to make the most of this joyful time with a menu that emphasizes comfort, tradition, and seasonal flavors. Starting tomorrow, October 21, the beloved restaurant will welcome back three festive favorites along with some exciting new offerings, making it an ideal destination for families wanting to create lasting memories.
Reintroducing Comfort Classics
The holiday menu features a host of returning favorites, including the much-loved Country Fried Turkey. This delectable dish comprises hand-breaded turkey tenderloins fried to a crisp golden brown, served with creamy herbed pan gravy, two country sides, and your choice of either buttermilk biscuits or corn muffins. It's a quintessential choice that captures the essence of Thanksgiving gatherings and the warmth of home.
For guests with a sweet tooth, the Cinnamon Swirl French Toast returns to delight diners. Crafted from cinnamon-streusel bread dipped in Cracker Barrel's signature batter and griddled to a perfect crisp, it's finished off with rich cinnamon and cream cheese icings, served alongside eggs and crispy bacon or smoked sausage for a complete feast.
Rounding off this festive lineup is the new Breakfast Burger, a marvelous amalgamation of breakfast favorites. Featuring a juicy all-beef patty topped with crispy bacon, a sunny-side-up egg, two slices of American cheese, and Cracker Barrel’s signature Hashbrown Casserole, all served on a toasted buttermilk bun, this burger takes the concept of breakfast for dinner to an extraordinary level.
Easy Holiday Dining with Heat & Serve Meals
Cracker Barrel is offering families the option of Heat & Serve Holiday Meals, making it easier than ever to enjoy a festive dinner without the hassle of long preparation times. Pre-orders are now available for these heat-at-home meals, which include all the essential elements for a traditional feast, such as oven-roasted turkey, sweet potato casserole, and classic sides. Gatherings can now center around making memories instead of meal prep.
The Thanksgiving Heat & Serve Feast serves 8-10 people and features items like turkey breasts, mashed potatoes, and delightful pies, while the smaller Thanksgiving Heat & Serve Family Dinner, which serves 4-6, offers all the comforts of a home-cooked meal without the stress.
Bringing Holiday Cheer to Your Table
During the holiday season, guests can also indulge in an array of freshly baked pies, with options ranging from pecan to apple streusel, ensuring that every gathering satisfies sweet cravings. Cracker Barrel is dedicated to simple solutions that encourage gatherings filled with joy and togetherness.
Commitment to Homestyle Cooking
In conjunction with the festive updates, Cracker Barrel is renewing its commitment to homestyle cooking through a newly enhanced training program for its staff. Focusing on core classic recipes, this initiative aims to ensure that every dish served embodies the warmth and nostalgia familiar to Cracker Barrel diners.
