Costco has quietly added a new item to its ready-to-eat (RTE) section that’s creating a stir among breakfast and brunch lovers: a heat-and-serve Chicken and Waffles tray that combines sweet and savory flavors in one convenient package.
According to shoppers posting on the r/Costco Reddit forum, the popular warehouse chain is now offering a pre-made version of the classic Southern-inspired dish. Each tray includes crispy fried boneless chicken thighs, fluffy Belgian waffles, organic maple syrup, and a side of hot honey for extra flavor.
The meal is designed for easy preparation. Simply warm the components in a 400-degree oven until heated through, then serve and enjoy.
At $6.99 per pound, Costco’s Chicken and Waffles has quickly become a fan favorite, with customers praising both the flavor and value. One Reddit user commented, “The chicken was sooo good. Will for sure get them again.”
While chicken and waffles can be found on many brunch menus across the country, it’s a surprising find at Costco, where bulk snacks and family-sized meals are more common than gourmet brunch staples. The origin of the dish is often credited to Dickie Wells of Harlem’s Wells Supper Club, but its widespread popularity today has made it a brunch mainstay.
With Costco’s version offering a convenient, affordable, and flavorful take on the sweet-and-savory classic, it may soon become a go-to item for busy households looking to upgrade their breakfast routine.
