The viral mini dessert “chicken” bucket is back at Yankee Stadium.
After the drumstick-shaped ice cream treat, which looks like a piece of fried chicken, sold out earlier this month in The Bronx, it will finally be available to hungry baseball fans once again, beginning this weekend when the Orioles come to town.
The Yankees announced that the sweet treat was back in a post on social media Thursday afternoon.
“The Mini Dessert ‘Chicken’ Bucket is back in stock this homestand!” they captioned the post.
The item will be sold at sections 125, 205 and 318 at Yankee Stadium for $10.99.
The dessert item was a home run when it was introduced during a media event before the start of the season to show off the new food being sold at Yankee Stadium.
Photos and videos from reporters and influencers who attended quickly spread across the internet, amping up the intrigue for the snack.
The Yankees had initially believed that they would have enough in stock to last them a while, but they quickly realized they were going to run out, and ended up selling out of them by Saturday of the ballclub’s first homestand.
“Given how well-received the item was on media day, interest from fans was tremendous, and we sold out of the item by the first inning of Saturday’s game,” Yankees senior director of communications Michael Margolis told The Athletic in an email earlier this month.
Yankees broadcaster and chicken tender enthusiast Michael Kay gave the ice cream treat a rave review with a 10 rating on his social media page dedicated to reviewing chicken tenders at ballparks across the league.
“Look at it, it looks like chicken. It’s amazing!” Kay said.
“That’s why it’s sold out,” he added later.
