The Post Chicken & Beer is throwing down this summer with the Battle of the Chicken Biscuit, a two-month, bracket-style competition between nine new happy hour chicken biscuits developed by Post chefs.
Launching on Monday, June 10, 2024, and running through Sunday, July 28, The Post chefs will battle it out with their own unique takes on the restaurant’s signature happy hour biscuit sliders—featuring flavors like pimento cheese and chicken with mixed berry jam; mac and blue with fried chicken, buffalo mac and cheese and blue cheese dressing; sweet and spicy chicken with poblano and apple mostarda; and many more on house-made biscuits, all paired with Post beers.
The winning slider will be highlighted as the Post’s featured dish at the Chicken Fight Festival in August. Diners can vote on their favorite slider one time per round by texting 303.970.8688. The Post will select one lucky voter per round to win a chicken biscuit party at The Post location of their choice.
These chicken biscuits are only available during happy hour at The Post, which runs from 2-6 p.m. Monday through Friday. Biscuits are $6 each.
