Chicken is the star at Dallas-based fast-casual chain Cowboy Chicken Wood Fire Rotisserie, which is preparing to open its first Fort Worth location at 4972 Overton Ridge Blvd. As the restaurant name indicates, chickens are rotated and cooked over a hickory wood-burning fire, which is visible to diners. The brand, launched in 1981, is recognized for its twice baked “potaters,” tomatillo sour cream-topped chicken enchiladas, rotisserie chicken tacos and hot peach cobbler. “Wild West” sides include baked sweet potatoes, fried okra, black eyed peas and pan seared “campfire” veggies. Cowboy Chicken has seven locations across Dallas, Collin and Denton counties. Lunch, dinner, delivery and catering services will be offered.
