Also..............Legit................. I really almost cried when you got to Uncle Herschel's special. My husband ALWAYS ordered that.For almost ten years together. I am a Widow, he passed about a year ago. I still remember our breakfasts together. Thank you.
I'm sorry for your loss
My his soul rest in peace❤
Sorry for your loss. Glad you have great memories though.
I’m sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss darling. I'm happy this made you a little happy :)
this is legit just a 22 minute add for cracker barrel and i’m not mad abt it
I touch
Jenn J I touch too
I _am_ Mad, not angry; yet now I'm Mad, AND Hungry!
This vid is the BEST way to survey the menu. By seeing how the food looks we can develop an appetite for something or decide it's not for us. I cook so I'll use it for meal planning ideas.

As a cook at Cracker Barrel, it’s kinda weird watching this because I make all these all the time. Broccoli Cheddar Chicken is my personal favorite.
Thomas Straight is the food there made from scratch or heated?
Most of it made from scratch. The green beans and fried apples come in cans. But the biscuits, fried chicken, dumplings, and pretty much everything else has to be made. The grits and sawmill gravy are actually started two hours before open so that we can have it fresh for breakfast.
That's my favorite also. I get it with the boiled cabbage on the side.
My restaurant only had it on Wednesdays and now they’ve replaced it with another dish. So sad :/ broccoli cheddar chicken was the best!
Hopefully your service means something not like brads wife
I am a cracker barrel cook .. Pensacola and the tradition and feel for your experience is real ..we care what you are served and take pride in every order..I am so happy with your video..we strive to make every experience an at home but better experience..I am proud to be a Cracker barrel cook and look forward to giving everyone your journey through our menu..thank you
CB has the most amazing food. Thank you, and everyone, who works so very hard for your customers.
I've always had a really great meal at your restaurant, thank you so much for all of your hard work! We love you!
Literally no one:
Julia: They don’t serve alcohol here, buuuuut...
@ watch The Cheesecake Factory video she did on this channel you'll see
Jessica Goettlicher I work here it’s a fucking joke half this shit is already premade idk who she is but she’s a fucking lie
@@morganalexis46 ...oh shit-
@@morganalexis46 some is from scratch, I worked there too. Biscuits are scratch, some other stuff too. Not all because of time.
Brad's wife used to love serving alcohol
“I say pe-con”
“There are so many chopped pee-cans in here”
mackerel gob 😱
T SR I know. I’m just as shocked and dismayed as you are but we’ll get through it.
she a phony
Jessica Ren She’s a (pe)conman.
@@mackerelgob8501 😂
Julia: “I say peCAHn”
Julia 30 seconds later: “there’s so many crushed peCANs in here”
Lol. I noticed that too.
💯🤣🤣🤣🤣
I say it differently depending on context for some reason
6:52
Didn’t try the Mac and cheese, it’s literally amazing
She said that Hashbrown Casserole is the most ordered side, but in reality it’s Mac n cheese.
Will I watch a 30 second long ad? no
Will I watch a 22 MINUTE long video of this girl eating everything on the menu aka a giant ad for cracker barrel? watched every minute
It's binge eating done vicariously! No guilt. No stomachache afterwards.
@@msr1116 exactly!
Usually in these types of “trying everything” it’ll usually be them trying literally half a bite and saying they are full, but this lady went ham on all the dishes and honestly I’m satisfied
She had ham, I had tuna.....
I honestly was thinking she's taking too big of bites.
No, she didn’t even eat a lot of each :(
Brad's wife LOVED 22 minute ads
B r a d s w i f e
Nanette!!!!! Why did you fire her?!!!
Who is brad
@@parallax1.018 brad doesn't matter. His wife is who's important here
Here from Internet Historian
The old boy can finally rest
Someone from Spain here. When I visited the US one of the chains that got me was Cracker Barrel, nice country food, great pancakes a authentic aesthetics. I wish we had one of those restaurants here!
"those are real blackberries" we love low food standards
This seems sponsored
Izy Stefan also the “real blueberries!”. I want to know what fake blueberries are...
@@RMPack there's fake berries lmao. Usually found in bread like muffins, pancakes, waffles, etc that you find at any given store or prepackaged. They're like dehydrated nuggets of berry flavoring.
@@RMPack idk about the U.S but some store bought fruit cakes here in Australia have fake cherries in them, which are kind of like little balls of gummy or something.
Also fake berries in stuff that feature fruit whether trail mix/muesli/cereal/ fruit bars tend to have something similar, berry juices in a gummy sort of form.
@@callmewaves1160 Huh. I had no idea. Thanks!
All I kept thinking was "I hope they're not throwing all that food away"
Sacrosby103 omg same
I would wonder too! Probably should have given her samples!!!!
Sacrosby103 they said at the end that the staff and crew ate all of it
@@chloegarland2632 oh, good
They always give it to the crew when they do shows like this
Am i the only one that has watched this multiple times. Watching her eat is just so fun and i love cracker barrel. It has become a staple in me and my boyfriend's relationship. We love it.
Yes
At least 5 times this episode
I think I have watched all of them a few times especially the rainforest Cafe one it's my favourite one
Out of all these trying the menu videos to this day, Cracker Barrel is by far my favorite and if I ever visit USA again, it would be a restaurant I’d seek up and dine at at least once! The food just looks amazing and the menu itself is right up my alley as it looks like pure comfort food. I’d have a massive problem trying to decide what to order though because too much just looks so damn good lol
And for me it’s a bonus that they don’t serve alcohol, means you’re less likely to encounter drunk people while enjoying your meal
6:53 "I call it Puhkaan"
7:02 "There are so many chopped Peecans in here"
I can honestly say anytime I’ve gone to Cracker Barrel, my food is not plated that pretty, nor do I get half the size of those portions. They definitely tried extra hard for you since they knew it would be on UA-cam.
Jolie Walker I’m surprised to see this comment because I am never able to finish my food because they give me so much. Maybe try a Cracker Barrel in FL, because ours are amazing!
karen campanaro I am in Florida 🤣🤣 maybe the one I go to is just skimping out on me
Jolie Walker Hopefully you will have better luck next time! I saw a comment on her from a so-called employee saying they don’t care and just throw things on the plate, so it must depend on the quality of management and staff. Too bad some people have no pride in doing their best.
They don't like you
Hiii I used to work at Cracker Barrel and I actually thought the portion sizes were pretty accurate. The only things that stood out were the side Caesar salad should be in a smaller bowl and served with only two cherry tomatoes and the apple BBQ chicken was usually less apple more BBQ. Also the plating sometimes was not as neat but it wasn’t too far off.
I don’t understand how an all natural blood orange soda is clear..blood orange has that super reddish orange colour in its flesh and juice...
K Ea they probably use oils from the skin
K Ea all sofas and stuff would be clear if not for colouring.
Sam Paltiel I think you mean sodas, not sofas... how would it be all clear? It would only be clear if it was made with artificial fruit flavouring. When I make my own soda syrup with blackberries there’s not way in hell I’m going to be able to take that intense colour out to make it clear. My stained tea towels would agree.
The only other way I can think of would be that the natural juices could have been put through a rigorous filtration, or through fruit oils like the other commenter said.
What I’m also saying is that it seems a bit silly to market something as all natural, present a clear one when people immediately conjure up the image of the fruit and its intense colour.
K Ea well if they were to put colouring in it would be unnatural, they need a highly refined syrup so they can store it for long periods of time.
Lol. I know right.
Just got back from the Cracker Barrel here in Lebanon, TN.
Wherever I go, Cracker Barrel NEVER disappoints me!!
U HAD THE MAC AND CHEESE THERE LIKE 5 TIMES AND DID NOT TRY IT ONCE WTF
Same. I feel attacked, triggered and offended all at the same time.
owe20121 it’s literally why I clicked the video 😩😩
Right. Their mac & cheese is the bomb
Sarah Reynolds it’s literally the best
I'm just hurt about all that food being wasted, Mac n cheese included!
In all the years I have been going to Cracker Barrel, I have never had a bad meal. How they accomplish this, regardless of location/store, is beyond me.
As a former Cracker Barrel employee, all I can say is that they really take the time to train their employees well. I had always felt supported and encouraged while employed there, and even though no job is perfect, I did feel like a respected and valued member of the team, and that did a lot for my outlook on the job itself. They really value consistency as a company and making sure every single person who comes through their doors is being taken care of. They also have precise recipes they use to ensure the quality of food, so you should always expect a certain standard while you're there. If not, let someone know because they are always trying to improve the guest's experience!
@@hatcnlkittie Thanks for replying.
Lol, it's because all there stuff is frozen😂😂 -former employee
@@sabreeinahirschi7037 That's not how things were at my store, the kitchen cooks basically everything. And I was also speaking more to the quality of service with my experience, but I have heard others having a tough time. I know I was super lucky to have such great people to work with and that definitely shaped my outlook on the job. Sorry if you didn't have a good time working there!
Open pouch or sealed tin, put in oven or microwave. Serve to dolts who think everything is made fresh. Same great taste in every location. Mystery solved.
The commentary on all of this was my absolute FAVORITE! Now I wait for the world to open so that I can take the 45 minute drive to the nearest Cracker Barrel to devour 25 of these items for the first time 😋😋😋
The hash brown casserole is absolutely AMAZING
i worked at cracker barrel and most of this is absolutely not made from scratch lol
no fckn kidding!! I started as host, then went to server, then Togo and here’s the bomb...prep cook. MAJORITY is in BAGS!
Like the meatloaf which is a mystery meat in a bag 😂
Are you Brad's wife?
Ren im saying😭😭
🤣🤣🤣 #exposed
I’m mad the fried okra and the macaroni and cheese didn’t get the recognition they deserve 😂💁🏼♀️
And corn muffinsssss🙌🙌
@@savannahalvarado3489 omfg the CORN MUFFINS😣😋
Best fried okra I ever had was in Alabama made by my then boyfriend's aunt.
Love fried okra.
but...forget not the lima beans...sooo goood AND the turnip greens....delicious
I’ve watched this at least once a month! My favorite episode EVER!! I’m dying to go there! 🥰
My sister moved from home Massachusetts to Texas, she has pecan trees in her yard. She now insists it is pronounced peh-cahn, because "you pee in a can". I think it really just is a regional thing! Great review!
Oh Good Lord. It's one in the morning and now I want fried chicken drizzled with honey, a side of biscuits, cole slaw and iced tea.
Me too..plus a few more dishes.. and Coca Cola cake.. and it's 2 am!
@@karendixon401 ....I know! Last night it happened again. Watched a woman making blueberry buckle at 1:45 am, then had to go to sleep!
msr111 No no the chicken is so so dry.
I want that pot pie or at least the recipe.
I'm so jealous of all the fast food and restaurant chains you have in the US but actually thankful as I would be 400lbs by now 😂
Rachel Jay hahahaha so true!
I was once almost 400 pounds so yes it's dangerous. I had surgery and can barely finish a sandwich thank god :)
I think Cracker Barrel is in New York? Idk when I went or why. I think it was in New York tho.
Just going to say Cracker Barrel is not fast food.
You can still become 400lbs from eating it though.
@@lilchristuten7568 I said fast food AND restaurant chains
Never tried them until we took a cross country trip in 2014! Love them! I’m an old fashioned kind of guy! Old fashioned! Love it!
UHHHHH CHICKEN BISKIT
WHAT IS WRONG WITH MEEEEEE!!!
I didn’t even realize this was a 22 minute long video. Geez It’s 4am😅😅
same, hungry asf rn
3 am here
Its 3:43 my phone is at 8% my charger is right next to me in just to kaxy to charge it ;-;
4.30 am
There’s something about the credibility of a person when they try fifty items and says each one of them is fantastically awesomely rad.
Vert to be fair everything she ate LOOKED good. I’ve been to Cracker Barrel and didn’t enjoy it that much but my plate looked nothing like these.
Yeah, but have you BEEN to Crackel Barrel?
It's all like the same style of food over and over though. If you like one beige plate of fried cheesy potatoey stuff then you'll probably like it all
😂😂🤣 I'm deadddd
Yes yes yes! I'm all for loving a restaurant but no place will knock it out of the park on every single dish with just one person. She made it super hard to believe. Almost cringey
American living in South Korea right now watching this to make myself feel homesick 😭 My grandparents and I would always go here
Bacon no GREASE
*BISCUIT*
I feel like they made the plates extra good for you 😂 every time I go it does not look that good
It depends on the location! They're /supposed/ to be the same regardless of where you go, but that's hard to do. xD
Britain Chew3 I just think of all
the kids that don’t get enough to eat... and this just seems like a total waste of food🥴☹️
@@lemons2lemonade884 Go donate to them then
@@lemons2lemonade884 It wasn't a "waste" of food. They literally posted a note at the end of the video saying that none of the food went to waste because it was eaten by staff and crew.
Interesting, because it's always great at my CB, every time I go.
“How much cheese?”
Cracker Barrel salads: Yes.
I get the "Sunrise Sampler" every time I visit Cracker Barrel. then, I don't eat for the rest of the day. Love your videos!
All these chains reviewed and the only one I really like is Cracker Barrel. Ate there once and now crave it. They need to open one in nyc.
I love Cracker Barrel but do NOT know how you can try all these dishes! Feeling the food coma like 3 minutes in lol
HungryDebYT she only has a couple bites of each
I'm thinking they spread it out over a few days and she wore the same clothes. I'm a big guy and I could not do this in one sitting.
@@guitarplayergeek
It was all done in 1 sitting
@@lilchristuten7568 How do you know though? She never says she did it in one day.
@@guitarplayergeek
2 reasons, she said that she had been there for a really long time; 2 if she did this over the course of more than 1 day she wouldn't have been so tired of trying the foods by the end.
i literally work there but i just watched this whole video
Same
same
I have an interview this week. Any tips? 😭
Same 😂😂
And none of the food i serve comes out that pretty 😂😂
This is the most amazing video ever on UA-cam! All that food, oh my gosh I had to watch it twice. I have never been to a Cracker Barrel but I will seek one out soon...YUM!
cracker barrel meatloaf is the most magical food ever created!
I've never tried it but now I want to!!!
I simultaneously want to eat at Cracker Barrel while also feeling like throwing up.
Heeeyyy they finally changed these titles to "trying" not "eating"
Natalya Flake seo
Hope someone got the leftovers wasting food....
Keyonna Plain what ?
@@FrogTogLogBog lol I fixed it auto correct sucks
Keyonna Plain yes it does lol
I’m really jealous of her job
Really needing this at 3A.M after a month in quarantine
Where do I sign up for this job
Melody M UA-cam
lol, at Delish...oh you have to be a world-class writer too
@@seancancook1 Lmao. Yo really ?...
I love how chill she is. She doesn’t try too hard
Oh my God, this made me cackle!! Hahahaha
Shelovesmiso right
This is the best food review ever on youtube!!! I was literally STARVING after watching you do this one!!!! I was slobbering...ha ha ha. GREAT JOB crazy woman I loved it!!!:) Keep making these!!
honestly, still the best series on UA-cam
Texas Roadhouse next!
Yeah!!
Texas Roadhouse is trash. Only good thing are their rolls and cinnamon butter otherwise it is horrid.
“i call it pecaaaaan”
not even three seconds later
“pee-can”
I love this, I love cracker barrel when I'm there I have a hard time deciding what to order. Never thought about ordering everything great idea thanks. ❤❤
ugh i freaking love their pancakes, i love how it’s slightly crispy. and the syrup is BOMB.
It used to be 100% maple syrup. That went away many years ago.
The best thing at Cracker Barrel was Brads Wife.
😂😂😂YES
Fucking love this 😂😂💙💙
thank you for this reminder
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
I was looking for this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Try Everything is my favorite segment that you guys do. Please make more videos like this one!!! I need it in my life. Julia is the perfect host for this.
Thank you for this video, Julia!!! So much. I wish you had included the CB store, too.
8:55 when you think the video is about to end 😱 but it’s not even close
You can just tell she has a genuine appreciation for all things food
She reminds me of Morgan Adams. Anyone else?
She reminds me of Anna Sophia Robb
Don’t know who either of them are
she looks like a tall blonde Maisie Williams to me
She does look like Morgan!
Nahh she's way better. Morgan is ehhh
I'm thinking this lady may have just out-ate Mikey Chen from Strictly Dumpling, lol. You are a brave, brave woman to try all those items in one sitting! I entered a food coma just watching you...
Mikey's just a machine. He'd have eaten it all, and not touched the sides
this is definitely my favourite episode of julia tries !
"I was like 'I'm gonna be an investigative journalist' and now I'm like "'I'm gonna eat 50 dishes at Cracker Barrel'."
LOLLLL i just caught that the third time I watched this video lmao
Now I want Cracker Barrel. The bad part is I’m less than 2 miles away from it. I think I’ll just make hash brown casserole at home since that is all I want right now.
@Sean Jones There's an "authentic" recipe online.
Same but I want some chicken n dumplins 😋
Thanks for sharing. I always order the same old thing. Now I can switch it up. Hope you took all that food to go!💜
Julia is the perfect person for this job. She is very knowledgeable and has a great vocabulary.
I’ve never watched a more promo infused video in my life lol “this is a pretty big side salad” LOL
Yea.... as a previous cook for CB... I can tell you right now. It's not all homemade and fresh.
Ashton Paugh
THANK YOU
Sad thing is it used to be...those old ladies would cook up them greens and beans every day.
We found an honest man!
She said those are fresh pick blackberries... noo sweetie they from a can 😂😂😂
Yes and that beautiful flakey fish is frozen, like 95% of everything else😂😂😂
thank you for this blitz tour of these amazing dishes; kudos for being able to sample them all; loved your commentary; i hope all that food did not go to waste though;
Julia is adorable and has the best personality for this show! 👌👌👌
If y'all knew how easy fried apples are...
My grandma's "recipe":
Toss any sliced and cored apples in cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger powder (and any other dried spices you think smell good with the apples) until well-coated. Put a decent but *NOT* Paula Deen amount of butter in a skillet (if it's unsalted, add a pinch of small grained salt to balance the taste), let most of the moisture cook out of the butter. Throw the apples in and saute until the liquid starts releasing from them, then add brown sugar; if the brown sugar doesn't have enough liquid to turn into a loose sauce (maple syrup consistency) then add a bit of water or apple juice. Let simmer until the sugar syrup is coating the apples and they are soft enough to your liking - at least when you can poke a fork into them with ease.
It may take a few tries to get it exactly how *you* like it, but at least the "mistakes" are delicious. ;) Seriously though, easy on the butter as there is such a thing as too much butter flavor.
Stewed apples the way my momma used to make. With a pan of biscuits. Cracker Barrel doesn't peel their apples though. Yuck.
Good recipe.. but go ahead and put in the Paula Dean amount of butter. Paula's right.. she's STILL right.. about BUTTER!
6:59-“Idk peCON just comes off better” 7:02-“There are so many chopped peCANS in here” bro pick one lmao
SAME!
Omg! I caught that too! Lol
Lol yes, I was gonna comment that
I was looking for this comment lmao
Lmfao. Yeah...
Am I the only person who's food actually gets served this well when their at cracker barrel-
When she ate the pancakes with only a tiny bit of syrup i was like "honey noooooo"
I thought I was the only one 😂😂
Same u need more
I worked at CB in high school.. I accidentally put double chocolate in the chocolate pecan pie and we couldnt sell them so some of us employees got to take them home.. It was so so soo good! 😅
Are you Brad's wife?
I'm so glad for the disclaimer at the end! Just thinking about all of that food going to waste was making me sad. Thank you for understanding.
I feel my heart burning by watching these videos
Used to go there with my dad when he lived in FL. I miss it. The nearest one to where I live in NY is over 2 hrs away. Keep hoping one will open up.
He Mac n cheese should’ve been recognized...CLEARLY the best on the menu imo
It looks so thin and bland.
@@nightangel3578 definitely isnt. creamy, peppery, and very cheesy. amazing.
I gained 20lbs just watching this.
THICC FERGUSON!!
I loved seeing the food items enjoy! I will definitely be sampling a healthier version of these dishes or try each once a month lol
Currently torturing myself by watching these videos, but loving them at the same time.
“I feel like meatloaf gets such a bad rep, and it’s really rude! It’s not the hottest girl at the party! But it’s really good, there’s a reason it’s still on the menu, and people are still clearly ordering it!” Meatloaf is so good! ^_^ I’ve always loved it as a home cooked dish, and as a restaurant cooked dish! It’s so good with ketchup or gravy, or a bit of both together! :D And Finn, from ‘Adventure Time’, it’s his favorite food! :D
and there are a million variations of it, so never has to be boring.
I have no idea how she ate all that food. Bless her heart. Cracker Barrel is really yummy and I miss it. The last time I ate at a Cracker Barrel was in the early 2000's. One might say she likes alcohol. :)
I work at cracker barrel and even I dont talk this highly of the food
Brad’s wife used to work at crackerbarrel.
@@AmonGus-zx5zr I was waiting for someone to comment this 😂😂
I get full just watching these videos haha I love them so much
Cracker Barrel: FAMILY FRIENDLY FUN!! (no alcohol)
Her: this would be AMAZING with alcohol🤪🤪
I used to work in the gift shop and have had guests ask me if we sold moonshine (we do not) lmao
So excited for this video because I've been wanting to go eat at my nearest CB, about an hours drive. Now I can get an idea of their menu!
The hash brown casserole is my reason for living.
I am jelly, Julia. Whenever I go to CB, my food never looks this pretty. That being said, I effin love their biscuits and apple butter. The best!
Love this series! Great way to figure out what I wanna try.
The chicken and dumplings are unbeatable. I know this is just a massive cracker barrel advertisement, but it also worked because I'm totally going soon because of this video.
Haha, ikr. This looks awesome. I dont have one nearby but wanna make the trip now 😂
I go there almost everyday. I work there😂😂 but can't beat the food
I remember eating here as a kid. I always ordered either the chicken-fried steak or the catfish, with greens and fried okra. This whole video just makes me want comfort food, but I can't eat most of this now. Also, I have yet to see okra in the area I am living now. :(
@@L337Dratini everytime I read back a to go order I see okra. What the heck is okra if I u dont mind me asking
@@jademorgan7518 It's a green seed pod that is usually a southern-style side dish. You can batter it and deep fry it, put it in succotash (a seasoned mix of corn, tomatoes, and beans), and have it pan fried as well; there are probably lots of other ways to cook it but those are the ones I'm familiar with.
It can get a slimy consistency if you don't cook it right, so some people dislike it because their first bite of it was slimy and poorly cooked/seasoned.
It is similar to a yellow summer squash in taste, but has more of an asparagus texture - kind of snappy unless it's stewed. They do have large seeds but those get soft when cooked - that texture can be off-putting for some people as well as the seeds can sometimes pop when bitten.
I like okra a lot. :)
Great video, no matter the food or the place...loved it!
That Pot Roast roast beef looked absolutely delicious 😋. I love how it easily pulls apart.
I was waiting for this! Cracker Barrel is one of my all time favourite restaurants.
You mix the greens and cornbread and add sauce from the peppers. My favorite food
OMG! Julia; everything looks Amazing! Thank you for sharing. CAB😍
