Taste the Bayou with the Applebee’s Big Easy Menu. Featuring new $11.99 Cajun dishes and festive $6 Mucho drinks, it’s the perfect time to head to Applebee’s.
While Applebee’s is famously celebrating 25 years of its Mucho Cocktails this season, the real star of the show is the return of the Big Easy Menu. Starting at just $11.99, guests can now dive into bold, Cajun-inspired flavors that bring the spirit of New Orleans straight to the local neighborhood.
Applebee’s Big Easy Menu: Savor the Bold Flavors of the Bayou
The headline of this limited-time event is the introduction of two brand-new dishes designed for fans of spice and southern comfort.
- The NEW Bayou Shrimp Bowl: This vibrant dish features blackened shrimp and smoky Andouille sausage served over Spanish rice. It’s rounded out with garlicky green beans, sautéed bell peppers, and onions, all served with a side of creamy Cajun sauce for an extra kick.
- The NEW Big Easy Burger: For those who crave a hearty meal, this all-beef burger is stacked with Pepper Jack cheese, grilled Andouille sausage, and a zesty citrus slaw. The addition of spicy honey mustard on a toasted Brioche bun creates a complex flavor profile that pairs perfectly with their classic fries.
Applebee’s Big Easy Menu: Returning Favorites and Comfort Classics
The Big Easy celebration wouldn’t be complete without the Bourbon Street Chicken & Andouille Sausage Penne. Starting at $11.99, this dish remains a fan favorite, featuring juicy chicken and seared sausage tossed in a creamy Cajun Alfredo sauce.
Other staples on the menu include:
- Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp Skillet
- Bourbon Street Steak
- The Bourbon Street Mushroom Swiss Burger
“It’s no secret – our guests love our Bourbon Street menu items, and we’re thrilled to bring back our Big Easy Menu, featuring two new delicious Cajun-inspired dishes,” says Michelle Chin, chief marketing officer at Applebee’s. “Packed with bold, delicious flavors of New Orleans, our Big Easy Menu will transport you to Bourbon Street with every bite!”
Festive Sips to Match the Meal
To complement the heavy Cajun spices, Applebee’s is also launching $6 Mucho cocktails for St. Patrick’s Day. Guests can try the Emerald Escape, a tropical Jameson-based drink, or the Pricklycane, a fruity twist on a New Orleans hurricane. For those skipping the alcohol, the $4 Parade Punch Mocktail offers a mesmerizing green-to-purple ombré effect.
“For 25 years, we’ve proudly served a variety of premium spirits packed with flavor – and playful garnishes – in our signature Mucho Cocktails to neighborhoods nationwide,” said Nate Grover, executive director of bar and beverage at Applebee’s. “Fun, colorful and most importantly delicious, our Mucho Cocktails continue to deliver variety and value to our guests. So, join the party, taste the tradition, and cheers to 25 years of Mucho magic at Applebee’s!”
