The Chick’n Shack, appearing on most U.S. Shake Shack menus today, is
a crispy 100% all-natural and antibiotic-free chicken breast with
lettuce, pickles and buttermilk herb mayo. This new menu item made its
first appearance at Shake Shack locations in Brooklyn, NY, last summer
and was inspired by the company’s heritage as a modern “roadside” burger
stand.
“The introduction of chicken marks a new era for Shake Shack, staying
true to our core menu while continuing to innovate new items our guests
have asked for,” said Shake Shack CEO Randy Garutti.
Added Shake Shack Culinary Director Mark Rosati, “The Chick’n Shack
embodies our modern approach to fine, casual American cooking. It’s
about providing a simple, pleasurable, uncomplicated experience, but
with high-quality, responsibly sourced ingredients.”
“The NYSE is proud to celebrate with Shake Shack in the launch of the
exciting new addition to its menu,” said NYSE Group President Tom
Farley. “Shake Shack is a valued member of the NYSE community -- we’re
thrilled to welcome the company back to the NYSE nearly a year after its
IPO to celebrate this important product debut.”
