Cracker Barrel’s Heat and Serve Holiday Meals Are Back—Here’s Where You Can Get Them
Holiday cooking is a love language, but sometimes that love looks a whole lot like juggling hot pans, chasing timers and wondering why you volunteered to make both the gravy and the dessert.
Thankfully, Cracker Barrel is making it easy to keep the cozy flavors and drop the chaos. The chain has brought back its Heat and Serve Holiday Meals this year, meaning that you can set your table with a comforting spread in about two hours. Honestly, not having a marathon prep session of peeling, chopping and brining sounds like a dream.
What are the Cracker Barrel Heat and Serve meals?
Cracker Barrel’s Heat and Serve meals are fully prepared holiday feasts designed to be chilled until mealtime, then heated and served with minimal effort. They’re a lifesaver for hosts, whether they’re juggling an intimate family meal or a packed-house feast.
It’s important to note that holiday pies can also be preordered on their own. So whether you’re on dessert duty or just following a strict pie-is-breakfast philosophy through the season, Cracker Barrel has you covered.
