Bojangles' biscuits getting cheesy

December 18, 2014

Bojangles' plans to add some cheese to its signature buttermilk biscuits. The company announced today on its Facebook page that the Cheddar Bo is coming in the New Year. It includes two slices of aged cheddar cheese melted inside a made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuit.

The Cheddar Bo has been a fan favorite at select restaurants in Eastern North Carolina and Virginia, and the brand is now expanding it throughout the entire system.

"While the Cheddar Bo's availability has always been limited to a select few of our restaurants, its popularity among our customers expands far beyond those regions," CEO Clifton Rutledge said in a news release. "Cheddar Bo has been one of our most-requested menu items—and for good reason—so we are thrilled to now have the opportunity to offer the deliciousness found in a warm, perfectly melted Cheddar Bo to fans throughout the Southeast."

More than 500 participating Bojangles’ restaurants will carry the LTO through the end of March 2015, starting as early as Dec. 29 in most areas.

In November, Bojangles' announced that sales have surpassed the $1 billion mark for the first time and credited the milestone to its strong breakfast and biscuit platforms.
