Savor delicious homemade meals when stopping for lunch at Joe's Yardbird. This rustic, hole-in-the-wall eatery is best known for some of the best fried chicken in McAlester. Start your lunch with homemade biscuits, buffalo deviled eggs or fried green beans. Then try the local favorite, biscuit sliders, and choose between multiple flavors –  barbecue ranch, honey mustard or "dirty bird" with rotisserie chicken, bacon and pepperjack.

Round out your meal with a sandwich, salad or specialty entree. The "Dirty Bird Sandwich" is Yardbird's take on a philly, complete with rotisserie chicken, bacon, pepperjack, lettuce, tomato, onion and dirty bird sauce on brioche. Other specialities include a loaded baked potato, Irish nachos, seasonal soup de jour or skillet mac.
