These seven Cracker Barrel meat dishes are the hearty favorites diners order on repeat.
Cracker Barrel has amassed a cult following for many reasons, ranging from its kitschy country store filled with tons of fun merchandise to its large platters of food served in a country-style setting. While fried chicken, pancakes, eggs, and hashbrown casserole are delicious enough for seconds, several meat dishes are ordered repeatedly. Here are 7 Cracker Barrel meats fans say are the best on the menu.
Country Fried Steak with Green Beans

The Country Fried Steak, “Tender steak breaded and golden-fried, topped with sawmill gravy,” is one of the most popular items. ” I also love a good country fried steak,” one Redditor exclaimed out it.
Slow Braised Pot Roast

You also can’t go wrong with the Slow-Braised Pot Roast, “Rib roast simmered low and slow with carrots, onions, celery in a rich gravy,” reads the menu. “Pot roast is delish, super tender,” one regular diner suggested. “I agree,” added another.
New York Strip Steak
While Cracker Barrel isn’t a steakhouse, the New York Strip Steak is worth ordering. “Tender, juicy 10 oz New York strip steak with buttery garlic sauce. Served with two classic sides and buttermilk biscuits or corn muffins,” reads the menu.
