Cook Out does not print a separate children's menu — and it does not need one. The Junior Tray ($6.39) is the cook out menu for kids: one junior main, any 2 sides and a drink, in portions that still look generous next to most kids meals. Junior mains are the small burger (245 cal), 1 hot dog (260), corn dog (220), 1 chicken quesadilla (449), BLT (392) and 2 chicken strips (440). Sides kids actually finish: fries (347), hushpuppies (300), nuggets side (144), cheese bites side (150) and onion rings (128). All calories are from Cook Out's official nutrition PDF.

🥤The Shake-Split Trick
One ~32 oz shake ($3.99) is two kid desserts. Upgrade the tray drink for +$1.00–$1.60 instead and ask for an extra cup — Fresh Banana (538 cal) is the lightest flavor; Oreo (802) is the crowd-pleaser.
🥗Lighter Jr. Tray Builds
Small burger (245) + onion rings (128) + chili (164) + unsweet tea (0) ≈ 537 cal. Or corn dog (220) + nuggets side (144) + rounds (149) + water (0) ≈ 513 cal. See the low-calorie table.
