Some classics earn their status. Ours just happen to come with a serious kick. The YB Nashville Hot Chicken has become a Yardbird staple, pairing Carolina Reaper heat with house pickles and Texas toast. A little sweet? Nope. A little mild? Never. This one brings the fire. 🔥

Sweet, salty, and unapologetically Southern. Our Beef Tallow Ice Cream Sandwich stacks our new favorite wagyu beef tallow chocolate chip cookies with vanilla bean ice cream, toasted pecans, and a generous drizzle of house-made bourbon caramel. A little unexpected, a whole lot delicious. 🤎🍨

Our sides deserve a little spotlight, too. Our famous Crispy Brussels are fried in 100% beef tallow until perfectly crisp, then finished with a drizzle of spiced honey for that irresistible sweet-and-savory bite. 🔥

And yes, they can be made vegetarian! 🌱

Let's raise a glass to good food, cold drinks, and even greater company. 🙂‍↕️

Some mornings call for a little Southern indulgence. Our Yardbird Cinnamon Roll comes warm, gooey, and loaded with salted bourbon caramel, silky cream cheese frosting, and candied pecans. Sweet, decadent, and made for sharing or keeping all to yourself. 😉

Some things don't need reinventing. They just deserve an upgrade. 🔥

Our Nashville Hot is still bringing the fire, but now it's fried in 100% beef tallow for an even crispier bite that stands up to every swipe of legendary Reaper glaze.

Same sandwich. One mighty tasty improvement. 🥵
