"If you know me, you know I don't need much of an excuse to celebrate a Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit," Wilson said. "It's about time it got a moment of its own! Whataburger has been part of so many moments in my life, and this biscuit has seen me through early mornings and long nights more times than I can count." In 2025, Whataburger and Wilson teamed up to celebrate their partnership by surprising fans with free Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits, and fans showed up hungry, flooding breakfast hours in droves and turning the morning rush into a full-blown phenomenon.

The longtime fan favorite delivers an irresistible balance of sweet and savory, featuring a crispy, all-white meat chicken strip tucked inside a warm, fluffy buttermilk biscuit and finished with a generous drizzle of Whataburger's signature Honey Butter sauce. "National Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit Day goes beyond the biscuit – it celebrates the traditions that keep guests coming back," said Debbie Stroud, president and CEO of Whataburger. "For generations, Whataburger has delivered signature flavors and heartfelt hospitality, cementing its role in Texas culture and beyond."
