Cowboy Chicken Brings it Home
Cowboy Chicken has just opened its first location in Florida.
The new bbq restaurant is located in the Margaritaville Kissimmee/Orlando location in The Promenade at Sunset Walk district making it an ideal place to grab a hot meal just outside the theme parks.
Just minutes off Disney property this new eaterie offers a great selection of BBQ and has quite a few healthy options to boot.

Cowboy Chicken marinates their chicken for two days before cooking it in a wood-fired rotisserie. Walking in the door the first thing you see and smell is the line of rotisserie chicken being cooked to perfect deliciousness. The chicken is coated with a dry rub of seasonings that give the chicken a flavorful crispy skin. The inside of the chicken is juicy and perfectly cooked.

Eat like a real cowboy with bbq chicken and brisket offerings that include two sides and one delicious dinner roll. You can even choose enchiladas or drumsticks as your main. Veggie lovers can forgo the meat and choose from three sides and a roll.
Wild West Sides
They offer quite a large selection of sides in both individual and Texas-sized servings.
Their Twice Baked Potatoes reminded me of another famous restaurant’s cheesy hashbrowns but these took the crown.
Their baked mac & cheese is creamy and cheesy with a light sprinkle of breadcrumbs on top.
Other offerings include Ranchero Beans, French Fries, Green Beans, Sweet Potatoes, Spanish Rice, Garden Salad, Roasted Broccoli, Mexican Street Corn, and Creamed Spinach.

Monterey Salad with rotisserie chicken, chopped greens, avocado, cilantro, tomatoes, cheese crisps, chicken cracklins, and chili lime dressing.

Desserts

I opted for the peach cobbler and I was not disappointed! The crumble-on cobbler was not only tasty but there was just the ratio of cobbler to peaches. I would defiantly get this again.
Other desserts include Banana Pudding, a Fudge Nut Brownie, a Scoop of Ice Cream, and a Chocolate Chip Cookie with a secret flavor ingredient.
The chocolate chip cookie has crushed graham crackers in it giving it an extra unexpected flavor that works so well.
Drinks
Fountain sodas, flavored tea, and lemonade options are offered.
Homemade lemonades include Strawberry Lemonade, Old fashioned lemonade, and for the adventurous a Cucumber Jalapeno Lemonade.
Decor and Seating
The decor is a touch rustic with a clean modern look.
Cherry colorful orange umbrella tables and chairs sit just out front of the restaurant. The seating inside is limited but additional seating is available just outside the doors to the rear left as well.
Inside both booths and tables and chairs, as well as a small area with barstools are available in the air conditioning. However, if you visit in the evening you may be able to enjoy hearing one of the live bands play across the way.
My experience at Cowboy Chicken was phenomenal. The food was top-notch. The selections were plentiful. Healthy options mean there is something for everyone.
The staff was over-the-top friendly in the best of ways from the moment we walked in. We enjoyed chatting with everyone as much as we enjoyed our meal. We will be going back frequently.
