About Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit
The Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit is the item Whataburger fans drive across town for. At $3.99 and 577 calories it stacks a crispy Whatachick'n strip inside a buttermilk biscuit baked in the restaurant, then finishes it with honey butter that melts into both while it sits in the bag.
The pull is the sweet and salty swing: honey butter first, seasoned breading second, soft biscuit last. It is best eaten within a few minutes while the biscuit is warm, and it is only on the menu between 11 PM and 11 AM.

How to Make Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit at Home?
Whataburger will not sell you this after 11 AM, so learning to make it at home is genuinely useful. The trick is not the chicken, it is the honey butter: equal parts butter and honey whipped until it is spreadable, then brushed on while the biscuit is still hot.
Ingredients
Honey Butter
Chicken
Biscuits
Instructions
0 of 7 stepsTips
- Do not skip resting the coated tenders for 5 minutes. It keeps the breading from sliding off in the oil.
- Use salted butter. Whataburger honey butter reads sweet and salty, not just sweet.
- Fry at 350 F and check with a thermometer. Too hot and the coating darkens before the chicken cooks through.
Variations
- Spicy version: add half a teaspoon of cayenne to the flour and a few dashes of hot sauce to the buttermilk.
- Air fryer: spray the coated tenders with oil and cook at 380 F for 12 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Jalapeno cheddar: swap the plain biscuit for a jalapeno cheddar biscuit, the same swap Whataburger sells on its own menu.
Serving Ideas
Serve with hash brown sticks and black coffee for the full drive thru experience. For a weekend breakfast, put the sandwiches on a board with extra honey butter, pickles on the side, and orange juice.

$2.99 Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit FAQ
It costs $3.99 as a sandwich on its own. Ordering it as a Whatameal with hash brown sticks and a drink brings the total to roughly seven dollars, and prices shift slightly by location.
The sandwich has 577 calories in its standard build. The honey butter accounts for a meaningful share of that, so asking for light honey butter brings the number down noticeably.
Breakfast ends at 11 AM sharp, so 10:59 AM is your last realistic order. Service starts again at 11 PM the same night, which is why it doubles as a late night favorite.
A buttermilk biscuit baked in the restaurant, one crispy Whatachick'n strip, and honey butter spread across the biscuit. Nothing else, which is part of why it works so well.
Yes. It contains wheat, milk, soy and egg from the biscuit, breading and butter. Whataburger fries chicken in shared oil, so cross contact is possible and worth asking about in store if you have a severe allergy.
