Here’s exactly what diners can expect, and remember this is just a summer time deal, so make sure to visit your local Cracker Barrel to try the Campfire Meals before they disappear again.
NEW: Campfire Breakfast Skillet
The new Campfire Breakfast Skillet is available all day, seven days a week, and is sure to be a hit with breakfast lovers. This meal features bacon, smoked sausage, roasted red peppers and onions, topped with Colby cheese and served over three scrambled eggs, all seasoned with Cracker Barrel’s Campfire Seasoning.
Returning: Campfire Chicken and Beef
Cracker Barrel’s foil-wrapped Chicken and Beef entrées are back, each one seasoned with the brand’s signature campfire seasoning and slow-cooked to perfection. Campfire Chicken is made from a marinated half-chicken seasoned with campfire spices, sealed and slow-cooked in foil with corn on the cob, red skin potatoes, carrots, grape tomatoes and onions in a buttery broth. The Campfire Beef is made with slow-braised beef and classic campfire vegetables and spices, sealed and cooked in foil.
NEW: Country Homestyle Potatoes
The Campfire Breakfast Skillet is served over crispy Country Homestyle Potatoes, a new side featuring delicious potatoes seasoned with campfire spices. The skillet also comes with warm buttermilk biscuits on the side for a hearty, filling breakfast treat.
S’mores Brownie Skillet and Cinnamon Roll Skillet
Cracker Barrel desserts are not to be missed, and this summer diners can also enjoy two favorite desserts back on the menu: The S’mores Brownie Skillet is made with a rich chocolate brownie topped with a roasted marshmallow and a melting HERSHEY’S® Milk Chocolate Bar, served over crumbled graham crackers and paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate sauce.
