Runway Party Store’s Juicy Broaster Chicken Keeps Customers Coming Back
Runway Party Store, located in Blackman Township, Michigan, has found the secret to keeping customers coming back: their delicious Broaster chicken. Owned by Andy and Robin Burkhart for the past two years, the store has been a staple in the community for much longer. While many changes have taken place over the years, one thing remains constant – people flock to Runway Party Store for their mouthwatering Broaster chicken.
What sets their chicken apart is the unique cooking process that locks in the juices and flavors. The chicken is marinated for a full 24 hours before the Burkharts add their own special seasoning and pressure cook it using high-grade oil. The result is juicy, flavorful chicken that keeps customers coming back for more.
One of the reasons customers love the Broaster chicken is not only its taste but also its affordability. For just $26, patrons can enjoy an eight-piece family meal that includes mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, coleslaw, and rolls. This combination is especially popular with families on Friday nights, according to Andy.
In addition to their signature Broaster chicken, Runway Party Store offers a variety of other tempting dishes. They have added several specials since owning the store, including golumpkis, a traditional Polish dish that evokes nostalgia in customers. Made with cabbage stuffed with hamburger, rice, and spices, topped with tomato sauce, the golumpkis remind customers of their childhood.
Other specials on the menu include lasagna, inspired by an old family recipe, Coney dogs, and a unique meatloaf meatball created by Andy to solve the issue of the meatloaf falling apart. The menu also features a wide selection of soups, salads, burgers, and subs. For those looking for a hearty breakfast, Runway Party Store has that covered as well.
Being a party store, Runway also offers a well-stocked selection of beers and other beverages for purchase. Beyond just serving delicious food, Andy and Robin Burkhart take pride in being active members of the community and often cater at local schools and events.
After two years of serving the community, Andy and Robin have built strong relationships with their customers. Andy expresses his enjoyment in seeing familiar faces and the personal connection they have developed with the community. The store’s hours are convenient, opening at 6 a.m. on weekdays, with Sunday being the only exception when the store opens at 9 a.m. Closing time varies, with the kitchen closing one hour before the store.
Runway Party Store’s commitment to providing excellent food at an affordable price, along with their dedication to their community, has made them a beloved local establishment. Whether it’s the juicy Broaster chicken, traditional Polish golumpkis, or any of their other mouthwatering specials, Runway Party Store continues to win the hearts and taste buds of their customers.
