History

Lee Cummings, the nephew of Colonel Harland Sanders (founder of KFC), spent much of his childhood in the kitchen of his Henryville, Indiana home. Cummings began traveling with Sanders in 1952, selling their own special blend of spices along with their famous pressure cookers, which later became part of KFC's "Secret Recipe". In three years, Cummings and Sanders opened over 800 KFC restaurants.

After the sale of KFC in 1962, Cummings began developing his recipe, later to be known as "Famous Recipe." In 1966, Cummings, along with Harold Omer, started "Harold's Take-Home" in Lima, Ohio where Cummings first introduced his Famous Recipe Chicken. The word spread about this great new recipe and later that year the first franchise unit was opened in Columbus, Ohio.

By 1967, the fifth franchise unit was opened in Springfield, Ohio. Later that year, units followed in Dayton, Ohio and Cincinnati, Ohio, as well as Kalamazoo, Michigan.

In 1970 Lee's Famous Recipe went international with the opening of three units in Trinidad and, by 1972, there were more than 100 units in the thriving chain. By 1979, the number of units had doubled to 200 and, in 1981, Cummings sold the chain to Shoney's Restaurants in Nashville, Tennessee. Shoney's continued to operate Lee's along with their own Captain D's and Shoney's Restaurants until 1995, when Lee's was sold to RTM Restaurant Group in Atlanta, Georgia.

In May 2003, the chain had 29 company owned locations and 125 franchised locations. In October 2003, Lee's Famous Recipes Inc. purchased the chain from RTM. In April 2013, Famous Recipe Group, LLC purchased the chain from Lee's Famous Recipes, Inc. FRG has aggressive franchising plans for the brand.

Menu

Lee's menu consists of homestyle foods.

The Famous Recipe Chicken is the hallmark of the Lee's brand. It gets its flavor from Famous Recipe spices and is hand breaded, honey dipped, and pressure cooked to seal in the famous flavor. Chicken is prepared three ways: Famous Recipe, a more flavorful Spicy variety, and the more tender Oven Roast.

In addition to the three major chicken varieties, Lee's also serves Jumbo Breast Strips and Jumbo Boneless Wings. The Jumbo Breast Strips are big, all-white-meat breast strips that are prepared the same way as their Famous Recipe Chicken. They are served with a dipping sauce. The Jumbo Boneless Wings are chunks of all-white-meat chicken breasts marinated in a spicy blend of seasonings, then they are double breaded and pressure cooked.

Aside from the traditional chicken offerings, Lee's also serves chicken sandwiches, chicken fried steak, chicken pot pie and livers & gizzards.
