Dwight Yoakam's Bakersfield Biscuits™ brand of frozen food products are now available in H-E-B grocery stores. H-E-B, based in San Antonio, Texas, operates more than 300 stores in Texas and in Mexico.
Multiple Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter/actor Dwight Yoakam is the creative force behind the ever-expanding line of Dwight Yoakam's Bakersfield Biscuits™ brand food products. His inspiration is his Granny Earlene, who made down-home quality foods for Dwight when he was a boy growing up in rural Kentucky. "I originally had these items made up for some friends of mine, and they liked 'em so much, we had to keep on makin' 'em!," says Yoakam.
H-E-B now offers four items from the line: Chicken Lickin's™ brand chicken fries, Chicken Lickin's™ brand Buffalo-style bites, Lanky Links™ brand fully-cooked pork sausage links, and Platter Patties™ brand fully-cooked pork sausage patties. All four products are now available in the frozen meat section of H-E-B grocery stores.
"We're proud to be retail partners with H-E-B grocery stores, one of the largest independently owned food retailing companies in the United States," says John Marburger, President of Modern Foods. "Every item in the Dwight Yoakam's Bakersfield Biscuits™ line is made of the highest-quality ingredients, which is a perfect fit with H-E-B's commitment to excellence." (Modern Foods markets and distributes the Dwight Yoakam line of frozen food products nationwide).
Chicken Fries are made from all-white meat chicken breast patties with rib meat, breaded, and shaped like fries. Buffalo-Style Bites are also made from all-white meat chicken breast patties with rib meat and breaded, but the breading has a Buffalo-style flavor and they are shaped like drummies and wings. Buffalo-Style Bites are flavorful, but still mild enough for the whole family to enjoy. Both chicken products are boneless and fully-cooked.
Lanky Links" are fully-cooked pork sausage links while Platter Patties" are fully-cooked pork sausage patties.
All four products:
- Come in convenient, resealable poly bags.
- Are precooked - "Just heat 'em and eat 'em"™
- Can be prepared as a main course, or as an ingredient in complete meals: Chicken Fries are great in wrap sandwiches; Buffalo-Style Bites can be used as a salad topping to make any salad a main course; and Lanky Links™ and Platter Patties™ are perfect as part of a breakfast casserole.
