Church’s Texas Chicken is running a Big Deal Box starting at $5 through September 27, 2026, and the offer covers two different meals, a limited-time Pineapple Fried Pie, and a biscuit that comes with every order.
The promotion is a limited-time offer, which means it will not last forever. Customers in Los Angeles are paying more than the suggested prices, but the deals are still worth considering if you are near a location.
The $5 Big Deal Box
The starter meal comes with a leg and a thigh of fried chicken or two Hand-Battered Tenders, two regular classic sides, a Honey-Butter Biscuit, and a jalapeño. The suggested price is $5.
That is the headline deal. The biscuit is a smart addition, since breakfast items tend to drive traffic and the jalapeño adds a little heat to an otherwise standard meal. The two sides give you options for a full meal, and the jalapeño brings a touch of spice that cuts through the fried chicken’s richness.
The $6 Bone-In Options
The second Big Deal Box, priced at $6, swaps the chicken for four Bone-In Wings. It also comes with two regular classic sides, a Honey-Butter Biscuit, and a jalapeño. The suggested price here is $6.
Los Angeles customers are paying a premium on both boxes. The first box is $8 in Los Angeles instead of $5, and the second box is $8.99 instead of $6. That is a noticeable difference, though not a deal-killer for most people.
The Pineapple Fried Pie
Church’s is also offering a Pineapple Fried Pie for a limited time. It costs $1.99 in Los Angeles.
The turnover-style pie features a flaky, crispy fried crust with a sweet and tangy pineapple filling. It is a small addition to the menu, but it gives the deal some variety if you are looking for a dessert or a late-night treat.
What You Get in Each Box
The two Big Deal Boxes are distinct, and the pricing difference matters. Here is how they break down side by side:
- The $5 Big Deal Box: leg and a thigh or two Hand-Battered Tenders, two sides, a Honey-Butter Biscuit, and a jalapeño.
- The $6 Big Deal Box: four Bone-In Wings, two sides, a Honey-Butter Biscuit, and a jalapeño.
Both boxes include the same sides, biscuit, and jalapeño. The only real difference is the protein: the $5 box gives you a piece of fried chicken, while the $6 box gives you wings.
The pricing in Los Angeles makes the $5 box the better value, even with the premium. The $6 box remains the better choice for those who want the wings, but the $5 box is the stronger deal if you are in Los Angeles.
Why the Los Angeles Prices Matter
The Los Angeles prices are a warning to anyone planning a trip to the city. The $5 box is $8 there, and the $6 box is $8.99.
That said, the deal is still a good value at the suggested prices. A meal of chicken, sides, a biscuit, and a jalapeño for $5 is a solid lunch at most restaurants, and the $6 option adds wings for a small premium.
The Pineapple Fried Pie is a bonus, not a main reason to visit. It is a limited-time item, so if you see it on the menu, it is worth a try.
The Verdict on the Big Deal Box
The Big Deal Box is a good deal. The $5 price point is the story.
The $5 box offers a piece of fried chicken, two sides, a biscuit, and a jalapeño for $5. That is a meal you can build yourself for more than that in most places. The $6 box, with the wings, is a similar value at the suggested price, even if Los Angeles customers are paying a bit more.
The Pineapple Fried Pie is a fun addition, but it is not the reason to come. The biscuit adds something, and the jalapeño adds a little heat without taking over.
Church’s has a solid offer here. The Big Deal Box at $5 is a good value, and the Pineapple Fried Pie is a nice bonus. The Los Angeles pricing is a bummer, but the deal itself is worth it.
The offer ends on September 27, 2026, so there is a limited window to try it. If you are near a location and have not tried it yet, this is the time to do it.
