Cracker Barrel Is Selling Thanksgiving Dinner for Cheap!

If time got away from you this holiday season or you’re just not excited to prep an entire Thanksgiving dinner, Cracker Barrel has your back with two inexpensive heat-and-serve dinner options—plus a few other holiday treats up their sleeves.

What’s on the Menu?

First up are the Heat n’ Serve options! With these, you can choose between a meal that feeds four to six, or you can opt for leftovers and order a meal that feeds up to 10. Both options include a turkey breast, cornbread dressing, turkey gravy, cranberry relish and sweet yeast rolls and your choice of a side. In case you need the refresher, Cracker Barrel’s sides include green bean casserole, green beans, fried apples, cornbread dressing, hash browns, sweet potato casserole, macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes with turkey gravy, carrots and corn.

If you’re serving to a smaller group, the Country Fried Turkey Family Meal Basket serves up to five people. This ready-to-eat meal comes with fried turkey filets with gravy, Three Cheese Squash Casserole, biscuits and your favorite side. What’s better is now you don’t even have to go pick up your ready-made Thanksgiving dinner. Cracker Barrel delivery makes Turkey Day so much simpler.

How Can I Get One?

The Heat n’ Serve options will cost you anywhere between $70 and $140, depending on the number of servings (and your appetite). Country Fried Turkey Family Meal Basket is $40 or $63, depending on your portion size. The options are both available for order online and can be picked up between November 23 and November 24. You’ll need to order as soon as possible, though, because these deals are only around while supplies last. Now’s the time to get the most out of Cracker Barrel’s fall menu!

More Holiday Offerings

No Thanksgiving plans? Head into your local Cracker Barrel during regular hours, 6 a.m to 10 p.m. Fun fact, Cracker Barrel actually serves Thanksgiving all year round on Thursdays if you ask for the Thursday Turkey N’ Dressing special.

Cracker Barrel is also offering pies this year, and Cracker Barrel Pumpkin Pie is available right now if you’re looking to add a little sweetness to your order. Other varieties include Chocolate Pecan Pie, Pecan Pie, Apple Pecan Streusel Pie and All-American Apple Pie with no sugar added.

Of course, we know most folks want to do up Thanksgiving from scratch, so be sure to check out some of our favorite Turkey Day recipes.
