Hardee’s Announces Finalists of the Annual National Biscuit Baker Competition
Finalists from Across the Country Head to Franklin, Tenn. in October to Compete for National Title

FRANKLIN, Tenn., September 29, 2025 – Creating the signature Hardee’s® Made from Scratch™ biscuit is a blend of tradition, skill and a passion for excellence. This fall, four exceptional Hardee’s bakers will showcase those very qualities as they compete for top honors at the upcoming national Hardee’s Biscuit Baker Competition in Franklin, Tennessee.

Following a rigorous round of local and regional contests, these talented finalists have proven themselves among the best in the country. On Thursday, Oct. 16, they will go head-to-head at CKE Restaurants’ headquarters — the parent company of Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr.® — vying for the 2025 Biscuit Baker Champion title and a $10,000 cash prize.

This year’s finalists, each representing their local franchise group and the spirit of “Goodness in the Making,” are:
• Clint Adkins, representing Bedford, Ind., and New Beginnings Restaurant Group LLC
• Tammy Getchey, representing Headland, Ala., and Phase 3 Star LLC
• Amanda McIntosh, representing Dayton, Tenn., and J&S Restaurants Inc.
• Martha Mahaffey, representing Jefferson, N.C., and Mountain Star LLC

"Goodness in the Making starts with people. Hardee's biscuit bakers put the goodness into breakfast, and their dedication is felt in every fresh batch they bake before dawn," said Tony D’Amico, president of Hardee’s. "This competition highlights their expertise and commitment to perfecting the golden color, the fluffy texture and the perfect taste of every biscuit. We’re proud to recognize these outstanding team members as they reach the final round."

To earn their spot in the finals, bakers demonstrated mastery of Hardee’s proprietary biscuit procedures and were tasked with preparing 52 biscuits within 15 minutes. In addition to competing for the grand prize, the event also serves as an annual recertification in the company’s iconic biscuit-making methods. Fans can enjoy Hardee’s Made from Scratch™ biscuits fresh every day at locations nationwide.

580 AM & 93.5 FM WKSK (The Farm)

For over five decades (May 27, 1959) WKSK has been broadcasting information and entertainment to the citizens of Ashe County and surrounding Northwestern North Carolina.

We began broadcasting at 1600-AM on the dial, moving in the 70’s to 580 AM. On Monday, June 9th 2014 @ 4:25pm WKSK made history by simulcasting their signal on 93.5 FM.

WKSK operates at a pre-sunrise power of 500 watts and at 5000 watts during daylight hours. We begin our broadcast day Monday through Saturday at 6am and Sundays at 7am. In 2005, we began broadcasting 24 hours a day and in 2006 began streaming our broadcast signal on the World Wide Web. www.580wksk.com. WKSK also broadcasts their audio signal on Skybest TV Channel 680.

WKSK has been described by the North Carolina Association of Broadcasters as one of the truly “Small Market Broadcasters” still in existence. We attribute our audience loyalty to “localism." We describe our Country Music format as a means to move from one piece of information to another. Keeping our finger on the pulse of the community is important to our listeners and our station.
