Newk's Eatery Adds Seasonal Entrees and Mimosas to the Menu For the Holidays


JACKSON, Miss.– Newk’s Eatery has launched a limited-time menu featuring premium proteins with seasonal ingredients and classic holiday flavors: roasted butternut squash, tangy cranberry and orange chutney, woodsy Portabella mushrooms, hand-carved roasted turkey, spiced pecans, and real pumpkin with holiday spices.

Now through December 31st, Newk’s will offer Grilled Steak and Portabella Pizza, Grilled Steak and Butternut Squash Salad, a Turkey Cran-Orange Sandwich, organic Red Raspberry Iced Tea, Mini-Bottle Mimosas, and a dozen-layer Pumpkin Cream Cheese Cake made from scratch in Newk’s very own bakery.

“For the holidays, we are featuring our premium meats, grilled and carved in-house, along with the season’s best ingredients,” said Newk’s CEO and founder Chris Newcomb. “At Newk’s, you can indulge this holiday with grilled petite tenderloin steak, hand-carved roasted turkey and a dozen layer Pumpkin Cream Cheese cake that we bake and ice by hand.”

For the first time, participating Newk’s restaurants will offer Mini-Bottle Mimosas made with fresh-squeezed orange juice and a full split-size bottle of Korbel Brut Champagne. A holiday-season staple, Newk’s mimosas offer another reason to toast with friends and family, as does its new Red Raspberry Iced Tea, made with real raspberries, blueberries, black currants, blackberries, rose petals, and hibiscus flowers.

Newk’s Grilled Steak and Portabella Pizza features flame-grilled petite tenderloin steak, mozzarella cheese, rich sauce made from vine-ripened tomatoes, grilled Portabella mushrooms, caramelized onions, and tangy Gorgonzola cheese.

The season’s Grilled Steak and Butternut Squash Salad includes hand-sliced, flame-grilled petite tenderloin steak, roasted butternut squash, house-made spiced pecans, bacon, and cranberries tossed with radicchio, arugula, and house-specialty sherry vinaigrette.

Rounding out Newk’s signature sandwich menu for the season is a Turkey Cran-Orange Sandwich made with hand-sliced, roasted turkey, cranberry-orange chutney, cheddar cheese, and arugula on toasted French Parisian bread.

Newk’s dozen-layer Pumpkin Cream Cheese Cake features layers of moist pumpkin cake made with real pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Each layer is frosted with hand-whipped cream cheese icing that uses fresh grade-A butter, pure vanilla, and walnuts, made by hand in Newk’s very own bakery. ​

Newk’s simplifies holiday entertaining at home or at the office with catering and Grab-N-Go selections that offer classic recipes straight from the Newk’s kitchen. For the holiday season, Newk’s catering is also offering Holiday Ham & Turkey-Cran Sliders, available by the dozen, in addition to the year-round catering menu.
