North Carolina Hardee's® restaurants want to celebrate every
victory with University of North Carolina Tar Heels' fans during
the 2010 football season by offering something special on Tuesdays.
Every Tuesday this season following a Tar Heel football win,
Hardee's restaurants across North Carolina will offer a 3-piece
Hand-Breaded Chicken Tenders™ combo meal for a significantly
reduced price of $3.99.
All 230 Hardee's restaurants statewide will participate in "Tar
Heel Tender Tuesdays" and the promotion will run during the entire
2010 Tar Heel football season. The Tar Heels kick off their season
Saturday, Sept. 4, against the LSU Tigers in Atlanta.
"Hardee's, like the Tar Heels, is another Carolina-born winner,
and we're looking forward to celebrating every win this season with
the 'Carolina Nation' on 'Tar Heel Tender Tuesdays,'" said Jerry
Allsbrook, chief marketing officer for Boddie-Noell Enterprises,
the largest Hardee's franchisee both in North Carolina and the U.S.
Like Hardee's, Boddie-Noell was founded in North Carolina and has a
long-time relationship of support with the University.
Hardee's new Hand-Breaded Chicken Tenders are fresh,
all-white-meat chicken tenders, hand-dipped in eggs and buttermilk
and lightly breaded. Introduced to the Hardee's menu in June, the
tenders are already a big hit throughout the country. The 3-piece
Hand-Breaded Chicken Tenders combo meal includes Natural-Cut French
Fries and a beverage. Chicken tenders were introduced to Hardee's
management by Boddie-Noell who first developed the menu item in the
company's North Carolina test kitchens.
