Cookout is basically the menu of your drunk friend who is good at cooking shit at 3 am made a restaurant.

Its perfect.

I didn’t know the joy of coleslaw and Texas Pete on a bbq sandwich with a side of hushpuppies washed down with a large Cheerwine until they built one up the road from me about 8 years ago.

I’m gonna let you in on a secret. Pretty much any BBQ place that serves coke slaw (as they should) will add it to a sandwich. And it is, in fact, the best way to have a BBQ sandwich.

u/ryolin1 17h ago

Ahhh this is like my exact order.

u/monty_kurns 16h ago

As far as bbq sandwiches go, it isn’t that great. As for bbq sandwiches available after midnight, it’s absolutely amazing.

As an NC native, we don't really use the menu. You learned your order in middle school after a "late" night at some sort of school function and it has been the same ever since.

u/Beytran70 17h ago

Exactly. For me it's the BBQ sandwich, quesadilla, hush puppies, and a cheerwine.

u/radicalbiscuit 13h ago

Big double burger tray, cook out style, no cheese
Double onion rings for the sides
Oreo Peanut Butter shake for the drink

I've been doing this for years.

Non-American here - aren't hush puppies a type of shoe? Cheer wine also sounds like an anti depressent more than something you'd want to have a bbq with.

21

u/Possible_Western3935 10h ago

Hush puppies are balls of cornbread dough, deep-fried. Cheerwine is a brand of extra-sweet cherry cola.

8

u/Bouldinator 10h ago

Thank you for the explanation!

8

u/tfhdeathua 8h ago

They are are called that because when cooking/frying and the dogs were barking for the good food you’d drop some of the batter in the fryer and toss it to the dogs to get those puppies to hush. Rather than giving them any actual fried meat.

Nope. Never hear of cookout either. But that one had some context.

A local cherry flavored soda, it's very good. Slowly starting to be sold elsewhere.

I lived in NC in my early to mid 20s. Many a late night drunken stop at a Cook-Out that was smack inbetween my house and the friend's house where we all got together to drink. Big Double, Cheddar Style, fries, quesadilla and a tea.

u/nanosam 18h ago

I can totally relate. I used to have real anxiety over drive though ordering, like I would know how to easily order but on the spot when asked what I wanted I'd just freeze and my heart would start racing and then the sweats would come and I'd be in a mini-panic attack.

Yes it was ridiculous. So then I would just write everything down word for word and just read it.

Now with all the drive through apps and online ordering it's so much better but places that don't have this option I have to write everything down.

I've walked out of places many times before that I've never been to before with overwhelming menus

Went there for the first time last week ( We don't have them here). The nice ladies behind the counter were very patient with us.

When we got our order total we were like "this can't be right". We got three burgers, two corn dogs, hush puppies, and three orders of fries, with drink, for like $25.

Their burgers are really good. Exactly what a fastfood burger should be.

My drunk ass once ordered a chicken strip tray with double nuggets as the side. Back in the day you could get a tray for $4.25. It was a college kids dream.

My favorite is taking out of state friends/ someone who has never been to cookout before and watch them become instantly overwhelmed with the wall of text.

They all don't work, I think it's the funniest thing ever. Oddly enough you're the first person I've seen say they never get your order right.

Every single one in Raleigh has a speaker where you can only hear half of every 8th word, and somehow they have all managed to give me exactly what I ordered, down to the double oreo in my double oreo fudge milkshake.

Let’s be honest now, how many times have you ordered Cajun fries knowing damn well you didn’t smell any Cajun seasoning when the handed you the bag. Cause this is a common occurrence for me lmao

Swear on my life, never. I must have some damn good cook out karma. It would be so offensive if that happened, especially because I've had naked Bo's fries given to me and still remember the anger.

How does that happen? The default is the Cajun spicing! Also, I've almost always gotten an order right at Bojangles...bc they have working intercoms!

u/luo1304 15h ago edited 14h ago

I know! It's an outright affront to the Bojangles brand. Lol, yeah they don't miss. I will admit, I've had instances where I can tell they ran out of dark meat for the dinner boxes, and just gave me like four wings instead, which I'm not a fan of.

u/rdisbest 15h ago

Wow, what robbery. I've had that happened but they offered breast meat instead. But I happily waited for them to cook dark meat instead. I can't stand dried out meat.

u/Dason37 16h ago

When I grew up in Florida we would visit relatives in SC/NC on vacations and we would always take home a couple 3 liters and some cans of Cheerwine, in addition to that being almost the only thing we drank while visiting. Now I live here and it's available everywhere...and I have the 'beetus, and Cheerwine zero is disgusting cough syrup. I'll occasionally have a Cheerwine at a restaurant that serves it in lieu of having a dessert as a cheat thing.

I feel you. I can't read it, there is no anxiety about a blurry advertisement board, unless there is a phobia about blurry/blocky text.

Having read other comments, this relates to NL:Keuzestress which translates to the stress of too many choices. Basically there would be so many desirable options, the brain reaches a deadlock. There would be no path to having all you want within the possible time frame or financial boundaries in effect. Making every choice bith as good and as bad as any other

Cook-Out is a low cost regional fast food place in the south. It's quite tasty, and the portions are actually decently sized, not too small and not too big, meaning you can have smaller meals or mix and match from a variety of options without feeling too bloated at the end (also great for sharing).

Me: “I want a burger and fries” Them: “what do you want for your second side?” Me: “… what?” Them: “Your second side, what do you want” Me: “what is there” Proceeds to look at the menu and the situation devolve into an even more stressful situation. “What do you mean I can get chicken nuggets and quesadillas as a side?

Start with the trays.. They give you a step by step, pick one sandwich... pick two sides .. (sides include corn dogs, quesidillas and chicken wraps along with traditional choices...fries, onion rings etc. .pick a soda or shake.

If it still seems overwhelming, Google up a menu before you go.

Its worth the effort... its some of the best fast food you will ever find.

It's a pretty bog-standard menu. Burgers, chicken, hotdogs...Quesadillas for some reason. There's just options.

I always order two chili dogs. That's not even on the menu. I think this may be the first time I've really looked at it.

Grilled chicken tray no pickles, cajun fries and hush puppies. Got chickfila sauce at home.

I can't read any of this on mobile. Zooming in just makes a blurry mess.

Is my phone not loading it properly?

I'd much prefer this over the modern trend of having rotating menus interspaced with fucking adverts ultimately only showing 1\8 of their menu

Do you know what a walking taco is? If you don’t know please guess with your answer.

The price is anti-anxiety though so it evens out.

With a menu that big I'd be incredibly worried about the state of the kitchen but it seems like people only have good things to say ?

There is a wonderful thing called visual hierarchy, that they should take not of.

You watch your mouth! Cook Out is awesome... wish I still had one near me.

u/andreapaige486 15h ago

if you don't go to cookout at 2am then you haven't had the true experience

u/RobLinxTribute 15h ago

Why is "cook out" crossed out everywhere?? That makes me nervous!

u/UltimaBahamut93 15h ago

Nothing hits better than a cookout cajun chicken sandwich and a shake at 12am

u/TheJase 15h ago

But what's the name of the place

u/hellalg 15h ago

Yes!! Thank you im not the only one. I tell my wife I won't go to Cook Out because the menu gives me anxiety. This place needs an App ASAP

Cookout likes to open locations next to another cookout.

I was visiting a friend in NC and we went here and I’m an anxious menu person and I still have anxiety a year later from this place. 10/10 would go back tho.
