Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® Announces Return of Online Bar-B-Q Business, Delivered by FedEx

Thursday, October 27th, 2011

Eastern North Carolina bar-b-q available delivered to continental states with new efficiencies provided by FedEx shipping services

(Cary, NC) – Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® (SCNB) announces the timely re-introduction of its online bar-b-q business with holiday entertaining, gifting, and football championships less than two months away. The North Carolina-based bar-b-q brand temporarily halted its online sales earlier this year to “take the time to ensure that our online component matches the level of service we are famous for and that you have come to expect from Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q®”, as detailed on the company’s blog.

During the brief break from online sales, Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® selected FedEx as the exclusive delivery provider and streamlined the ordering and shipping process to best meet the important goal of delivering customers a fresh and delicious product as consistent as the bar-b-q experienced when stopping in at one of the 33 North Carolina SCNB locations.

The online product selection was also revamped to allow customers to order the online retailer’s most popular items and “sampler” combinations in a value-oriented format and price point. Realizing that no two taste buds are like, Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® still allows customer to personalize the experience by offering the ability to customize the choice of sauces and mixes selected in the online menu options. Customers can test drive the new offerings online at https://scnbnc.com/store/index.php.

“We decided to partner with FedEx because of their commitment to quality in shipping,” says Richard Averitte, Marketing Director for Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q®. “Delivering a quality product is one of our top goals as a restaurant and it is equally as important, if not more, when shipping our product to hungry bar-b-q fans around the country. When our customers make the decision to send the gift of bar-b-q to loved ones or to order a ‘taste of home’ for their own tables, we want them to be confident that their order will arrive as expected,” adds Averitte. “We realize they have many choices when ordering specialty foods online and we are committed to making Smithfield’s Chicken ‘n Bar-B-Q® an easy choice for our loyal customers,” he notes.

Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q(R) Announces First New Menu Item in 40 Years

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

scnb smithfield's chicken 'n bar-b-q tenders

Unmatched quality and freshness make new menu item a tasty complement to longtime menu favorites

(Cary, NC) – Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® (SCNB) is proud to announce that the North Carolina-based restaurant brand has for the first time in 40 years added a fresh new item to its menu: jumbo chicken tenders!

 

Known across the state as the home of fresh fried chicken and eastern North Carolina style bar-b-q, the addition of fresh, never frozen, hand-breaded, all white meat jumbo chicken tenders is a complementary addition to the fast casual restaurant brand’s classic menu offerings. Jumbo chicken tenders make not only a tasty, easy-to-handle meal for younger patrons, but also are a lunchtime favorite for many, and a welcome addition to dinner plates accompanied by eastern NC bar-b-q, hushpuppies, potato salad, slaw, Brunswick stew, and of course – Smithfield Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q®’s famous sweet tea. Jumbo chicken tenders are now available individually, as a boneless tender sandwich, as a meal paired with hushpuppies and choice of sides, or as an addition to combination plates.

 

“Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q prides itself on not only having a longstanding history as a quality, family-friendly restaurant, but also on having a menu that isn’t subject to trends. Our patrons know that when they join us at Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q, that they’re going to enjoy a fresh, quality meal that is as enjoyable as every visit made in the past”, says Richard Averitte, Marketing Director for Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q. “So when we make the decision to add a new featured menu item, patrons know that we have selected a product that not only meets, but also surpasses, our goals for exceptional quality, freshness, and taste.”

 

The jumbo chicken tenders have been quietly popping up in Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® locations around the state over the past few months as the restaurant brand has eased into the offering of a new menu item. Now that the jumbo chicken tenders have become a fixed menu item in all locations, SCNB is encouraging fans to “Stop in a try a tender!” with a springtime promotion that offers diners a chance to win a $10.00 Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® gift card in exchange for posting a picture on twitter, facebook, or a blog. (Tender-tasters can also submit a picture of their experience to Comments@SCNBNC.com to be entered into the contest, as well.) Winners will be drawn at random weekly through May 31, 2011.

Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® Announces the Return of Free Coffee

Monday, May 10th, 2010

NC-based restaurant brand renews an old tradition, brewed fresh with hospitality and gratitude

(Cary, NC) – Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® (SCNB) is pleased to announce that the restaurant brand has brought back a former tradition of offering complimentary coffee to its in-store diners.

Many years ago, it was a staple to receive free coffee while dining in at Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q®. Richard Averitte, Marketing Director, for the restaurant brand notes, “We had forgotten just how much people enjoyed this extra little “perk” of dining with us.” He adds that customers can “again expect to be offered a piping hot cup of coffee after your meal by our co-workers”.

The renewed complimentary service not only encourages customers to “stay a while” and enjoy a conversation with their fellow diners after their meal, but also sends departing customers on their way with a fresh “cup of hospitality” (in the form of coffee) for their travels.

Complimentary coffee is immediately available at all North Carolina Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q® locations for in-store diners.
