Chicken in the Rough, also known as Beverly's Chicken in the Rough, is a fried chicken restaurant chain and former franchise.〔〔 It was one of the earliest restaurant chain franchises in the United States.〔〔〔〔 Chicken in the Rough was founded by Beverly and Rubye Osborne in 1936 in Oklahoma City, and the restaurant's specialty half-fried chicken dish was also created in 1936.〔〔〔 The dish itself was also referred to as "Chicken in the Rough", and consisted of a half fried chicken, shoestring potatoes and a biscuit with honey.〔 Three restaurants presently serve the dish today. The chain's logo was an image of a rooster smoking a cigar and carrying a golf club.〔〔 The chain also used a logo of "Chicken's Caddie", which depicted a chick acting as a golf caddy, stating "I'll gladly be fried for Chicken in the Rough". ==History== The restaurant's name was devised on a cancelled 1936 road trip to California, in which Beverly spilled a picnic basket of chicken after Rubye hit a bump in the road while driving on the Oklahoma prairie.〔〔 Rubye remarked something to the effect of "This is really chicken in the rough".〔〔〔 After this occurred, they turned around and headed back to Oklahoma City.〔〔 Another notion is that the name was devised on a family picnic "where silverware had been forgotten", and that the consumption of the chicken without silverware constituted eating it "in the rough", using one's hands.〔 However, the official website of the chain states that the former occurred.〔 Beverly's Pancake Corner in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, now called Beverly's Pancake House, has been described as the "home base" of Chicken in the Rough. Three additional restaurant locations presently serve the dish.〔 The half-chicken dish continued to be served at Beverly's Pancake House, where it's prepared according to its original recipe.〔〔 The first standalone Chicken in the Rough restaurant was opened on U.S. Route 66 at 2429 North Lincoln in 1936, and was initially a small drive-in restaurant with nine stools and four booths.〔 The restaurant was significantly expanded to seat 1,100 people, and became a place that was visited by travelers, film stars and state executives.〔 Celebrities who were friends with the Osbornes and patrons of Beverly's Pancake Corner restaurants include Bob Hope and Gene Autry.〔 Beverly's Pancake House has a framed black-and-white photo on a wall showing Bob Hope with a birthday cake that the restaurant made him one year.〔 In 1961, the building was demolished and the state capitol complex was then constructed there.〔
