re: Have eaten both the Freddy's and Cowboy Chicken on Siegen this week...review

Been to Cowboy Chicken twice so far. 1st trip I had the BBQ chicken sandwich which reminded me of the consistency of a Manwich with small chunks of chicken and a ton of sauce. Flavor was good but was really difficult to handle so it ended up being a fork & knife sandwich. 2nd trip I got the ½ chicken. Wing was dried/burnt like a grocery store rotisserie bird and the breast was overcooked and “mealy”. Dark meat was tasty and skin had the right amount of crispness.

As for sides, I had the twice baked “potatoers” that are somewhere between a hashbrown casserole and loaded mashed potatoes. Tasted ok I suppose but the texture is just weird. Also tried the cucumber and tomato salad which seemed to have a good bit of cumin in it which I wasn't expecting and didn't care for.

If a coworker wanted to go there for lunch I’d join but wouldn’t go out of my way to visit. Hopefully they’ll expand their menu at some point and include the tacos like the other locations.

As for Freddy’s, been once and thought it was really good. Not enough to unseat Whataburger as my favorite “drive-thru” burger joint but will definitely go back. Mustard based, flat top smashed patties, cheese melted between patties and shoestring fries……….yes please. The patties are thin so get that double!
