@PolishedAfterSixtyYvette our Cracker Barrel said they will -you don’t even have to buy any meals and they’ll sell you as many of them and you want. But from what I understand each Cracker Barrel can enforce or be as lenient as they want. So you would have to call the one near you and check with them.
I bought a me a l one time. It was overcooked and dried out. Did not taste good. Will ever do that again. It was notfresh. Tasted like they're heated it.
Any way you spin it, $5 for a simple quick meal is a deal. This is fantastic for Seniors or people can not get out but have friends or family that eat at CB and don't mind bringing a meal home to them. ...or just eat it all yourselves..it's so good lol
As a Cracker Barrel employee I thank you for sharing our Take Home meals and giving it an honest review. We have so much negative press going on around our company right now, it’s refreshing to have someone say good things about us and our food! I have never purchased the take home meals before, but definitely will the next time I get a chance. It would be good to bring home a meal or two for my husband when I’m too tired to cook dinner.
I have a long-lost question. No offensive or hateful thoughts occurred in this comment. Do they hire people of colour? I was just wondering because of their past feeling about them.
When my grandson was in high school, college, & law school , he was a server at Cracker Barrel. He worked there 10 years & wherever he went to school, they transferred him from restaurant to restaurant. They are not only a great restaurant, they are good to their employees. Grandson is now a Public Defender in Fort Lauderdale,FL ❤
My husband and I fill up fast ( due to late middle age I guess? ) So I'd take that first meal and give him the bigger slice of the meat loaf, ( he likes that more than me ) and add a can of green beans and a salad and we'd split that. In part, that's how we paid off our new retirement house 14 years early! We were always on the poor side of things but with meal stretching we formed good money saving habits. Yummy.
Like everything: microwaving the meals, talking together, comments about the flavor and texture of the food, seeing the fur babies. Everything was cozy and felt like home. 🩷
I’m pretty sure we would take one $5 meal & make it dinner for two by opening some green beans & making the meatloaf into sandwiches. I love the idea of these meals!
When we travel in our fifth wheel we love Cracker Barrel. They let us stay for free in their parking lot. Also Wal Mart let's you stay over night in their parking lot for free. I love to order their sides carrots, Mac and Cheese, dumplins, etc. I pop those into our fridge. Yummy for snacks.
For us seniors. Those look almost like they could be two meals. I keep salad stuff in my fridge. Frozen and canned veggies. So would be pretty easy to add a veggie and one of those would make two meals for me. I do this at Olive Garden as well. They have a similar type offering with Italian food.
Went to Olive Garden last week and took home the ziti $6 meal. I split it between my mother and myself it was more than enough for both of us and was really tasty.
These are an amazing, affordable option for so many people. I work with patients who don't have the strength or finances to cook. These are cheaper and more filling than most frozen TV dinners.
This is Bonnie. Many years ago I worked at CB. The food is top notch and fresh. The kitchen is always clean. My favorite was the steak filets on biscuits. Also the hash brown casserole is another favorite. No instant foods. Some biscuit makers were better than others and could make a nice fluffy biscuit and others not so much. Always eat at Cracker Barrel.
I live in Virginia and there isn’t a Cracker Barrel near us however, Olive Garden offers 7 different meals that are also $5 and I have been purchasing them for the past two years for myself and my husband as well as my son for lunch at work. It is a great concept for the restaurant chain to make additional money and it comes in the size of a regular meal and it’s filling.
Just found your channel and love it. My husband and I are seniors and this would be a cool idea since we eat out occasionally and love Cracker Barrel. Thanks so much and God bless.
Oh i loved this videos you could get 12 dinners and freeze them and have one dinner per day for 12 days at a price of $60 this is perfect for seniors who don't want to cook everyday
Look at the portion size of those meals! There’s enough food to stretch it over the course of a day or 2. Particularly, if you add a veggie and if you don’t have a big appetite, which most of our Seniors do not. These foods are probably not the healthiest, “true,” but, maybe there are healthier options to choose from at CB. Nonetheless, in this world where food insecurity abounds it’s nice to know that places like Cracker Barrel and IHOP, who offers coupons for BOGO meals, are making a generous effort so others can have a decent meal to eat at a low or even no cost to the customer. What a way to help those in need. I Salute These Companies for their Impact in our Communities...❤
Monday to Saturday, i cook my 1 meal per day food. Sunday i go pick any food i want to eat I follow keto diet and cooking my meal gives me a lot of control on the quality and also i save a lot and eating right. Thank you for this 5 dollars meal...looks really yummy.
I've been doing this for almost a year....up to six meals a week. I am a senior I can't make it at home for $5 and it's healthy food. Btw in case you didn't know....even if you order a kids meal you can add on the take home meals. Super good deals.
@@amandamuzyka3704 I get curbside pickup. I order a kid's meal and then a take home meal. It's between 10-11$ for two meals. I can't buy the groceries to make it for that cheap.
I am going to try this, I live close to Murfreesboro, Tn and did not know they offered these $5.00 meals. Thank you so much for sharing this info. Have a blessed week.
Thanks this is so cool to know. I live right by a Cracker barrel. Hmmm go eat breakfast a couple times a week and get meals for 5 bucks, that's a cool deal. Cheaper than buying groceries.
New subscriber - you two are just so comfortable & likable! I love Cracker Barrel and will definitely consider the $5 take-home meals next time we're there. Great job.
I'm 31 and me and my mom always visit on Thanksgiving and go to cracker barrel and she lives 8 hrs away. Idc what people say cracker barrel is amazing on the Holidays!!!❤❤❤
I didn't know about these. They look good, I'll have to try them. Cracker Barrel reminds me of when my folks took us kids to Country Kitchen back in the 70's. Grandma food. Crap, I'm old.
Love your videos and content. My wife and I visit the smokies yearly and this year we reviewed a few of your videos for new restaurant ideas. I enjoy the thorough reviews. We dont usually go to kid friendly restaurants but have expanded our horizons in the pigeon forge/ gatlinburg /sieverville area. Thank you for the honest reviews. Dave and Emily
We are getting ready to take a road trip next week and have a Cracker Barrel planned for dinner. Will have to get these to use in the hotel!! Thanks for sharing.
What a great idea! You’re so right, the meals are healthier, tastes fresher and cheaper, than McDonald’s! You just read my mind, I would’ve put ice cream over my blueberry French toast bake as well! Great minds think alike! lol!
Thank You for letting me know this. The meals look Delicious. Much better than a frozen dinner. I will Definitely be checking out our Cracker Barrel for sure.
Wow...I had no idea they did these $5 to go meals! If I was a VAN Lifer or an RVer, I'd be all over this! (Or, great for take home!) Thanks for the info!!
I’m Canadian and hadn’t been to one of my beloved Cracker Barrels since before the pandemic, but we took a short road trip to nearby upstate NY a few months ago so I was damned excited when I got to visit for lunch at the last one before the border. The food was as good as I remember and then I saw the menu advertised those $5 meals so we actually brought a few across for MIL dearest and for us to have for dinner when we got home. So good and such a good value! We also got my husband a few T-shirts for super cheap on their clearance rack. I remember when you could rent books on tape at one location and return them to another when you were on a long road trip back in the 90’s.
The $5 Cracker Barrel Take Home Meals all look really good. I think I would get the fried chicken with the mac & cheese and the grilled chicken with the mashed potatoes. Thanks for a great video.
I always get chicken fried chicken with green beans snd mashed potatoes and saw mill gravey on both the chicken and potatoes . And their peach cobbler is pretty good! Dont really care for their corn bread but their biscuts are nice,!
Thank you so much for doing this. We had Cracker Barrel here for less than a year and then they closed suddenly. Totally left the state of Oregon. I sure do miss their food.
Just found you both! Thank you for this, we are Brits (Manchester England) and saving to come over to visit family in TN.. Such good info. Your doggies very cute too, Subscribed.
CB should think about doing a container of their hashbrown casserole too, I would think it would reheat nicely. This is a really good takehome meal idea. 😊
Thanks you guys for trying all of those dinners. We don't go to Cracker Barrell often (usually when travelling) but that is definitely something I will look out for if we do. They all looked tasty and at $5 it's a bargain there's no question. Having said that, though, I think I would miss a vegetable side. I wish they would have reduced the starch portion and just added a spoon of green beans, greens, okra, or broccoli. Also having rice as the starch for the grilled chicken would be nice for a lighter option. Definitely would have put the mashed potatoes on the fried version or the meatloaf, but mac & cheese is great with either one as well. Y'all have a great week!
Thank you! Great video! You got right to the meals and gave your honest opinion. I have a CB very close to me and haven't been in years. Also, I do senior companionship and will pick up a "bundle" at McDonald's. Sandwich, chicken nuggests, fries and a drink for $5.00. They love it! Might want to check that deal out, too. ♡
We RV as well. Sometimes we CB overnight, either go in and do dinner or breakfast depending on the time. We’ve picked up a couple of these meals a piece, added a salad/dessert for the camper, and I have one or two less meals to cook when we’re out.
Such a random video, from my recommended, but I really enjoyed it. I frequent CB, didn’t even know they did take-home meals. Similar to BJ’s Restaurant.
Cracker Barrel is legit. Their meatloaf tastes just like my moms recipe. The broccoli rice casserole reminds me of Sunday potluck at church and im from NC where sweet tea is serious business, CB totally nails it. Thanks guys for the fun video. 😊
Looks and I’m sure taste a lot better than a frozen tv dinner from the grocery store. Probably not as many garbage ingredients either. Cheaper than some of the “better quality” tv dinners.
@jworth7203 I love BJ’s. I had one near me in Florida and I used to go every week. But here in Sevierville, they don’t have one. I did just read they are going to be building one here though. So that’s very exciting.
@@jennifermountaingirl I got so tickled when you mention the town my grandson lives and works and runs his business. I'm going to call him after he's off work and tell him about these meals. He and his girlfriend work so many hours this would be perfect for them to buy a few so they eat something besides hamburgers and taco bells! Is there a menu of the meals they can buy? Thank you so much!
@Yaya2214CJ if you call the Cracker Barrel nearby, they will tell you what they have. I believe the meatloaf and the fried chicken and the baked chicken are available all the time, but I’m not sure about the blueberry French Toast Bake!
We did $8.00 meals at Pizza Ranch also Olive Garden is also good. Being an older couple it is cost effective and saves on physical energy. Love the Bucky cup.
Just LOVED this, thank you so much! What a great idea! I especially loved how you tied it with travel and staying in a hotel, and what not. I mean, who does not love eating at Cracker Barrel when they are on a trip?! So then to get full meals for $5 after that is fantastic! And then having it for the next morning or the next evening. That is an absolutely amazing idea, thanks so much!!😅❤🎉!
Nice review 👍! I used to buy quick & easy meals like this available at Wegmans years ago when I went that direction. The Wife and I love the main selection of meals at Cracker Barrel whenever we ever get the chance to make a 50 mile round trip in that other direction, I'm crazy for the meatloaf or the hot beef patty with gravy, with my sides being mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, green beans, or lima beans. 😊
Oh my gosh I LOVE Lima beans. You don’t see them on many menus anymore. I also LOVE yellow wax beans. My Mom used to grow them in our garden when I was little!
Oh folks, thank you so much❤ We enjoy eating at Cracker Barrel Restaurants. When our 3 youngest boys were little up to grownups! Especially when traveling, we knew the foodcwas deluciouscand healthy, bathrooms werebclean, and we could doba littlecshopping also 😅. The '$5 to go meals' is certainly a surprise to me! Fun watching you. ❤
I took home a meal after my regular dinner (p.m.), only once. It's subjective, due to where, what, when, etc. you do it. Mine felt like it was what was older or left over, BUT no the next day type. It was the chicken/mashed potatoes. It was better than most fast food, but I was not that satisfied w/portion or taste. I WILL try again though. I do think it's a good choice for many. TY
These are 6$ at most of them now. I live full-time in an rv traveling the country. I stay in cracker barrel parking lots a lot! Edit oh man don't stay in rest stops!
I think this is a great idea, great price. Personally....i am not fond of their food...but to purchase for someone who likes/needs it.... it's wonderful. Kudos to Cracker Barrel.
I would do this if I did not have a dairy allergy. It is just me, so I usually cook on Sunday for the week. Usually a soup, chili, or beans, greens, etc.. since I work 6 days a week 10-12 hours a day it is easier.
My husband and I use to live down there on Hardin Lane. We went to the Cracker Barrel in Sevierville. We Loved that one the best. One day we hope to move back down there when my husband retires. Loved this video
I love your pups. They remind me of little deer. We had a Yorkie she was our last pet she had congestive heart disease and passed at 15. She was so sweet.
We live an hr away from a cracker barrel. When we do get to go we get the $5 take home meal and they are great for the price. I hope they keep them at $5 too.
Thanks for this review. I didn’t know they have these meals. I have a Cracker Barrel near me but rarely go out to eat. This is something I would try because I don’t eat fast food.
@@jennifermountaingirl The fried chicken. I also love that meatloaf. Both great. Never tired the breakfast. The other chicken seems fine but I prefer the others. I like both the sides too.
For 5$ that's an awesome deal! Especially considering how fresh they all are! I'd much rather have this over any of the new value meals McDonald's or Wendy's have

That’s great! 😃
Can you buy more than 1 per dinner. Will they allow you to purchase more for $5.
What a deal!

Love cracker barrel … haven’t heard of the $5.00 meals… Thanks for sharing 👍
I hadn’t either!!
thanks for the $5 take home info! I eat breakfast at CB a LOT and never knew this! as a single person living alone this is wonderful!!
Thanks for watching!!
Nice video. Simplistic - nice filming, editing and pace. No intrusive music. Dogs are a definite bonus.
Thanks!! I’ll
Let Bella and Benson know…😂
My husband and I fill up fast ( due to late middle age I guess? ) So I'd take that first meal and give him the bigger slice of the meat loaf, ( he likes that more than me ) and add a can of green beans and a salad and we'd split that. In part, that's how we paid off our new retirement house 14 years early! We were always on the poor side of things but with meal stretching we formed good money saving habits. Yummy.
That's a great idea!
Like everything: microwaving the meals, talking together, comments about the flavor and texture of the food, seeing the fur babies. Everything was cozy and felt like home. 🩷
Aww, thank you!!😊 ❤️
I’m pretty sure we would take one $5 meal & make it dinner for two by opening some green beans & making the meatloaf into sandwiches. I love the idea of these meals!
It would make a meal for two!!
That's a good money saving idea there 😊
When we travel in our fifth wheel we love Cracker Barrel. They let us stay for free in their parking lot. Also Wal Mart let's you stay over night in their parking lot for free. I love to order their sides carrots, Mac and Cheese, dumplins, etc. I pop those into our fridge. Yummy for snacks.

Wow...I don't an RV, but love information. I would definitely patronize a business that provides space to campers!!! Thanks Ma and Pa!!!!
😂😂❤️
We love the 5 dollar meals ! The containers are reusable and dishwasher safe too. I use them to share meals with my mom!
They were nice containers!
I didn't know that you can get a meal for $5.00 and take it home. That's good news and thanks
Thanks for watching!
Yeah almost all the fast food places have a $5 meal deal now.
⁶⁶⁶11@@jennifermountaingirl
They are very good!
I used to buy these for my dad before he passed away. He loved them!
I’m sorry you lost your Dad, sounds like you took good care of him.❤️
These are an amazing, affordable option for so many people. I work with patients who don't have the strength or finances to cook. These are cheaper and more filling than most frozen TV dinners.
Yes! The quality was good!
I think you do need to add a veggie though
THANKS for the tip. Didn’t know Cracker Barrel offered this.
Yes! Thanks for watching!❤️
Had no idea about these. $5 is a bargain & surely the ‘quality’ is up to snuff being Cracker Barrel
Olive Garden has $6 take home meals, but I think there are only 3 choices
I go to Cracker Barrel a lot. I never heard of a 5.00 take home meal 🤷🏾. Thanks for sharing.
I think all Cracker Barrel’s offer them!?

I've been doing this for almost a year....up to six meals a week. I am a senior I can't make it at home for $5 and it's healthy food. Btw in case you didn't know....even if you order a kids meal you can add on the take home meals. Super good deals.
So smart!!
Have to agree that it is a good deal and easy way out of cooking, but mac n cheese and fried chicken is NOT healthy food, especially as you get older.
How do you get 6 meals a week? Isn't it just one $5 meal per person?
@@amandamuzyka3704 I get curbside pickup. I order a kid's meal and then a take home meal. It's between 10-11$ for two meals. I can't buy the groceries to make it for that cheap.

Im a cracker barrel fan. I like this deal. Beats a sandwich for lunch.

Thank you!!
They had to come up with SOMETHING to get interest back for ….. the Barrel
Fish for me :*)
I always get chicken fried chicken with green beans snd mashed potatoes and saw mill gravey on both the chicken and potatoes . And their peach cobbler is pretty good! Dont really care for their corn bread but their biscuts are nice,!

Thank you! Great video! You got right to the meals and gave your honest opinion. I have a CB very close to me and haven't been in years. Also, I do senior companionship and will pick up a "bundle" at McDonald's. Sandwich, chicken nuggests, fries and a drink for $5.00. They love it! Might want to check that deal out, too. ♡
Yes, several people have suggested that. I haven’t honestly been to a McDonald’s in a long time so I would like to go and get an honest review of it.
Thank you! Keeping this in my mind to drop off for my aging parents!
Olive Garden is soooo good to- we have a video on that coming out Saturday!
We RV as well. Sometimes we CB overnight, either go in and do dinner or breakfast depending on the time. We’ve picked up a couple of these meals a piece, added a salad/dessert for the camper, and I have one or two less meals to cook when we’re out.
Yes! Perfect for that!
Such a random video, from my recommended, but I really enjoyed it. I frequent CB, didn’t even know they did take-home meals. Similar to BJ’s Restaurant.
Thanks for watching!
Cracker Barrel is legit. Their meatloaf tastes just like my moms recipe. The broccoli rice casserole reminds me of Sunday potluck at church and im from NC where sweet tea is serious business, CB totally nails it. Thanks guys for the fun video. 😊
It really does feel like home cooking, doesn't it?
Looks and I’m sure taste a lot better than a frozen tv dinner from the grocery store. Probably not as many garbage ingredients either. Cheaper than some of the “better quality” tv dinners.
Aww your furbabys are just so cute ....fod looks good too 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!!😊
I love cracker barrel and didn't know about this great deal, thanks! Can't wait to get it!
Thanks for watching!
BJs was doing this for a time too. Not sure if they do anymore as we don’t live near one now but it was a great deal.
@jworth7203 I love BJ’s. I had one near me in Florida and I used to go every week. But here in Sevierville, they don’t have one. I did just read they are going to be building one here though. So that’s very exciting.

I got so tickled when you mention the town my grandson lives and works and runs his business. I'm going to call him after he's off work and tell him about these meals. He and his girlfriend work so many hours this would be perfect for them to buy a few so they eat something besides hamburgers and taco bells! Is there a menu of the meals they can buy? Thank you so much!
@Yaya2214CJ if you call the Cracker Barrel nearby, they will tell you what they have. I believe the meatloaf and the fried chicken and the baked chicken are available all the time, but I’m not sure about the blueberry French Toast Bake!
GREAT VIDEO. thank you for sharing! And what an adorable couple you are!!
Thanks so much! 😊
We did $8.00 meals at Pizza Ranch also Olive Garden is also good. Being an older couple it is cost effective and saves on physical energy.
Love the Bucky cup.
Thanks!! We thought so too!!
Just LOVED this, thank you so much! What a great idea! I especially loved how you tied it with travel and staying in a hotel, and what not. I mean, who does not love eating at Cracker Barrel when they are on a trip?! So then to get full meals for $5 after that is fantastic! And then having it for the next morning or the next evening. That is an absolutely amazing idea, thanks so much!!😅❤🎉!
Thanks & we appreciate you watching!❤️😂
I love your videos. I watch from Chicago, and you make us watchers feel like we are right there with you.
Thanks for joining us!!❤️😊
Nice review 👍! I used to buy quick & easy meals like this available at Wegmans years ago when I went that direction. The Wife and I love the main selection of meals at Cracker Barrel whenever we ever get the chance to make a 50 mile round trip in that other direction, I'm crazy for the meatloaf or the hot beef patty with gravy, with my sides being mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, green beans, or lima beans. 😊
Oh my gosh I LOVE Lima beans. You don’t see them on many menus anymore. I also LOVE yellow wax beans. My Mom used to grow them in our garden when I was little!
Enjoyed your review of the meals. You both did an Amazing Job 👍👍👏👏. I wasn't aware Cracker Barrel did this so Thank You ❤
Thanks!!😊
You two are so awesome! Love all your videos and you do such a great job
Thanks so much! We are so glad you enjoy our videos! 😊😊😊
I love CB and I hope our country store like that does them to my gran children love meatloaf and Mac & cheese
Oh folks, thank you so much❤ We enjoy eating at Cracker Barrel Restaurants. When our 3 youngest boys were little up to grownups! Especially when traveling, we knew the foodcwas deluciouscand healthy, bathrooms werebclean, and we could doba littlecshopping also 😅.
The '$5 to go meals' is certainly a surprise to me! Fun watching you. ❤
Thank you so much!!😊
I guess I’m headed to the Cracker Barrel 😋 Thanks guys! Great job!
Thank you!!❤️😊
I took home a meal after my regular dinner (p.m.), only once. It's subjective, due to where, what, when, etc. you do it. Mine felt like it was what was older or left over, BUT no the next day type. It was the chicken/mashed potatoes. It was better than most fast food, but I was not that satisfied w/portion or taste. I WILL try again though. I do think it's a good choice for many. TY
These are 6$ at most of them now. I live full-time in an rv traveling the country. I stay in cracker barrel parking lots a lot! Edit oh man don't stay in rest stops!
I watched some videos of full-time RVs. Looks like a real adventure. Thank you for watching our videos!❤️
What a wonderful video, excellent thoughts and commentary on the meals and what a wonderful value they are!!
Thank you!
I think this is a great idea, great price. Personally....i am not fond of their food...but to purchase for someone who likes/needs it.... it's wonderful. Kudos to Cracker Barrel.
Agreed
I used to work at Cracker barrel and I love their chicken and dumplings
The way the prices of Stouffers and other frozen meals have gone up. This would be a great option for lunch at work.
Yeah, but then everybody be hanging around your desk, wanting to know what smelled so good. L O L.
@@jennifermountaingirl or steal your lunch🤣
😂😂yep!
your channel is so wholesome
@@KELLYKH thank you so much!!😊
I would do this if I did not have a dairy allergy. It is just me, so I usually cook on Sunday for the week. Usually a soup, chili, or beans, greens, etc.. since I work 6 days a week 10-12 hours a day it is easier.
Smart!
My husband and I use to live down there on Hardin Lane. We went to the Cracker Barrel in Sevierville. We Loved that one the best. One day we hope to move back down there when my husband retires. Loved this video
Thank you!!
Great information
I love your pups. They remind me of little deer.
We had a Yorkie she was our last pet she had congestive heart disease and passed at 15. She was so sweet.
Aw, I’m so sorry you lost your baby. Was her name Little Deer?
My Daughter Is A Server at Cracker Barrel in NH GREAT FOOD !! Awesome Boss
That’s great!!😃
We live an hr away from a cracker barrel. When we do get to go we get the $5 take home meal and they are great for the price. I hope they keep them at $5 too.
Never can have too much butter😂! What a neat idea and great price
You and Rich have alot in common!!😂
Thanks for this review. I didn’t know they have these meals. I have a Cracker Barrel near me but rarely go out to eat. This is something I would try because I don’t eat fast food.
Enjoyed you taste test. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Good value, good taste decent variety. We sometimes have ordered these to take home when we go out to Cracker Barrel to eat.
What’s your favorite?
@@jennifermountaingirl The fried chicken. I also love that meatloaf. Both great. Never tired the breakfast. The other chicken seems fine but I prefer the others. I like both the sides too.
You gotta try the breakfast French toast bake!
For 5$ that's an awesome deal! Especially considering how fresh they all are! I'd much rather have this over any of the new value meals McDonald's or Wendy's have
Me too!
You’re a great couple and thanks for the video. Love the Barrel!
Thanks for joining us!!❤️
I Love your content. Please keep these videos coming...
Thank you! Will do!
The fur babies are adorable So little
Thank you!!😍
