Five years ago, Church's Chicken began their annual Smokehouse event. This seasonal promotion offered flavors attributed to the chain's home state of Texas.

For the first time since 2019, Church's is bringing back a Smokehouse favorite in their Bourbon Black Pepper Smokehouse Chicken.

Served as a bone-in half chicken, the returning dish is marinated in a savory, smoky seasoning, deep-fried naked, then glazed with a sweet, smoky sauce that boasts a hint of bourbon and is finished with cracked black pepper.

The Smokehouse Chicken will be available at participating Church's Chicken locations nationwide through the end of August.
