Collage of four different copycat Cracker Barrel recipes.


Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Restaurant

I can’t think of a better place I enjoy stopping at to get a bite to eat when I travel. Cracker Barrel has one of the most delicious breakfasts you can get on the road. They serve breakfast like you wished you would make at home.

At Cracker Barrel we all have our favorite menu items but you can’t always go to the restaurant. The great thing is you can prepare your favorite copycat Cracker Barrel recipes at home.

Truth be told, I hate to cook breakfast at home. First off, I am not really a morning person. I do good to let the dog out and make a cup of coffee. Eventually, speech forms, which is often about 30 minutes after getting out of bed.

For me, cooking a meal first thing in the morning is inconceivable. So when I am out on the road, this type of sit-down breakfast is exactly what I am looking for.

Another one of the reasons I really love the Cracker Barrel menu is because they often have seasonal favorites. They have a great knack for adding menu items like the pumpkin custard during the holidays or even their chocolate pecan pie is a holiday favorite.

So you know that you can always try something new when you go to the Cracker Barrel. I hope you give some of these recipes a try.

Here are some of my Cracker Barrel menu items I just love. I hope you enjoy these as well.

    Recipe for Cracker Barrel’s “Spicy Grilled Cat Fish” & “Hush Puppies” pleeeeeease!
    Thank you so much for all these awesome recipes…I love your website.
    God Bless and Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours xxx.

    I like Cracker Barrel, but it irks me that they insist on slopping gravy on their fried chicken, which I despise. If I wanted gravy on a fried food I’d have ordered the chicken fried steak.

    How about the seasonal cinnamon drop biscuits? I’m going to try another recipe for them, but I don’t think it sounds the same…not sure how to get the chunks in them!

    I always love the grilled catfish fillets, does anyone know the seasoning that is on it. You use to be able to buy it and then they stopped selling it..

  5. Aleatha Stone
