The Budlong Southern Chicken Partners with Evergreen to Create a One-of-a-Kind Pumpkin Spice Chicken n’ Waffles LTO

As the leaves fall and everyone’s favorite season begins, the home-grown brands have joined forces to create a one-of-a-kind limited-time offering (“LTO”) that puts a unique twist on a Southern classic and makes the perfect fall treat – Pumpkin Spice Chicken n’ Waffles. The seasonal LTO will consist of two crispy and saucy hot chicken tenders, two toasted-to-perfection Pumpkin Spice Pie Waffles and a delicious honey drizzle on top.

"The Budlong team is excited to launch our first-ever seasonal LTO in partnership with Evergreen, blending our hot chicken with their waffles that just-so-happen-to-be nutritious,” said Craveworthy Brands VP of Operations Kristin Albert. “This collaboration is a perfect blend of culinary creativity, backed by beloved seasonal flavors and our favorite Southern comfort foods. That’s what we do best.”

The LTO will be available starting October 1 through November 30, 2024, or until supplies last for $8.99 at each of The Budlong locations surrounding the Chicagoland area.

“With pumpkin spice beloved by 62 percent of consumers each fall, our unique Pumpkin Spice Chicken n’ Waffles LTO offers a fun and delicious twist on the fall classic,” said CEO and Founder of Evergreen Emily Cole Groden. “We’re looking forward to offering customers an experience that simultaneously nostalgic and new, served sizzling hot in an amazing dining experience like The Budlong.”

In addition to the LTO, the brands will be providing fall-themed coloring pages at each location, created to celebrate the partnership. Guests will be able to highlight their designs in-store by handing them to the local team or sharing them on social media by tagging both brands with their masterpieces for a chance to be featured.

The brands will also be co-hosting a giveaway where two lucky winners will be able to win a family meal at The Budlong and five bags of Evergreen’s Pumpkin Spice Pie Waffles.
