Our Lady of Good Hope Catholic Church “Chicken Festival” Feeds Thousands

Hundreds of people enjoyed the distinctive smoked chicken at Our Lady of Good Hope Catholic Church Tuesday (9-12).  Church members manned grills for hours as hundreds drove through to pick up their chicken.  The chicken is distinctively seasoned and is always moist which means there’s lots of repeat business each year.  If you missed it this year, make plans to get yours next September…we only have to persuade you to go once….after that, you’ll ALWAYS go back!

Prep work began on Friday seeding peppers as well as roasting garlic and onions for the marinade.  Many of the church’s cooks made cakes on Saturday and Monday (250 total were made!).  The chicken was marinated on Monday.

Our Lady of Good Hope Catholic Church says “thanks” to supporters, customers, and donors…they appreciate the community for turning out!  2,290 chicken dinners were served!
