Fried chicken is where Bill Miller Bar-B-Q started - before it was a BBQ name, it was a fried chicken name. Bill Miller Sr. opened his original 1953 San Antonio stand selling nothing but hand-breaded chicken. Seven decades later, every piece on the menu is still breaded by hand and dropped into hot oil when you order it. That's why there's sometimes a short wait - and why the crust stays shatter-crisp all the way from the counter to your car.
The Bill Miller fried chicken menu has two main sections: individual & small orders (1 pc, 2 pc, 3 pc, 4 pc) served with fries and bread, and family packs (10 pc and 15 pc) with four upgrade tiers each - Our Choice, Your Choice, All White Meat, or All Breasts. Chicken Breast Tenders are also available in 2, 3, and 4-piece orders.
Every order comes with French fries and bread included. Jalapeños are $0.35 each or 4 for $1.30. Combo #2 bundles a 3-piece with fries and a large iced tea for $8.95 (a $2.45 savings); Combo #10 pairs a 10-piece with 5 jalapeños and a bucket of tea for $28.85.

Is The All-White-Meat Upgrade Worth It -
Bill Miller charges extra for All-White-Meat versions of each fried-chicken size. Here's how much extra you pay - and whether it's worth it based on how many breasts you actually get.
| Size | Our Choice | All White | Extra Cost | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 Pc | $6.95 | $8.60 | +$1.65 | Worth it if breast-only |
| 4 Pc | $8.65 | $10.75 | +$2.10 | Worth it for breast lovers |
| 10 Pc | $23.15 | $24.40 | +$1.25 | Cheapest upgrade - take it |
| 15 Pc | $34.45 | $37.00 | +$2.55 | Worth it for 8 breasts |
Insight: The 10 Pc All White Meat upgrade is only $1.25 more than Our Choice - that's the single-best white-meat upgrade deal on the menu. The 15 Pc All Breasts at $40.60 is for purists only.

How To Order Bill Miller Fried Chicken Like A Regular
1. The Lunch Order
3 Pc Our Choice ($6.95) - fries, bread, done. Add a 4-pack of jalapeños for $1.30 and a large iced tea for $2.20. Total under $11 and out the door in about 8 minutes (you'll wait for the chicken to fry).
2. The Family Dinner Move
10 Pc All White Meat ($24.40) instead of Our Choice. For $1.25 more, you get guaranteed up-to-5 breasts plus mixed pieces. Pair with a pint of pinto beans, a pint of coleslaw, and an iced tea bucket ($4.75). Full dinner for 4–5 adults under $40.
3. The Game-Day Classic
Combo #10 - 10 Pc Fried Chicken + 5 jalapeños + bucket of iced tea for $28.85. Designed for exactly this scenario. Feeds 4–5 adults. Call ahead 15 minutes.
4. Kids Eating
Skip the Our Choice (random mixed cuts) and order 2 Pc Tenders ($5.85) or the Buckaroo Tenders Meal ($6.30, includes fries, tea, 2 brownies). Tenders are universally kid-friendly.
5. Jalapeños Are Non-Negotiable
$0.35 each or 4 for $1.30. Fried chicken without a jalapeño bite is a missed opportunity. Ask for them with every order.
