Cracker Barrel Inspired Casserole So Tasty Your Mother-In Law Will Want Recipe!

If it is good enough for Cracker Barrel, it is good enough for me!

My Family Couldn’t Get Enough Of This!

My Aunt Betty and Uncle Bill would often talk about stopping into the home-style restaurant on one of their car tours as if it was one of the highlights of the trip. When I asked what restaurant it was they exclaimed, “Cracker Barrel!”

I remember traveling across the country with our kids in a big Suburban one summer to visit friends in the midwest and experience some of our National Parks. Being from California we had heard of Cracker Barrel but had never been to one.

We had been driving for hours and finding a place to pull over for a hot meal was something we looked forward to as much as getting out of the car.

When we spotted the Cracker Barrel sign, we knew it was time to stop. Boy were we glad we did, their southern style of hospitality was as amazing as the comfort food on their menu!

    Thank you for sharing. I have never eaten at Cracker Barrell, but I have made those potatoes just like this for years and years. My Mom made them, and they are every church luncheon, Not to mention every funeral that I have ever served at, or attended thru out Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho. No matter where they are served the is known as FUNERAL POTATOES (LOL even at Thanksgiving and Easter Dinners). As you can tell we love them. Thank you again for your recipes, I have found some good ones.

    I’ve been wanting to try these, but it doesn’t say what size package the Ore Ida Hash-browns are! Please advise! I read the comments below the recipe, hoping to find out, but no one commented on that!

    1. Marci Seither says

      Hi Carla, it is the 30 once bag. Hope that helps. I think it is a pretty standard size.. not that I buy a ton of frozen hash browns unless I am making this! Hope you enjoy!
