Boston Market is gearing up for its busiest time of the year with several holiday offerings.

The holiday season is the busiest time of year for Boston Market, which served more than 1 million customers at its 460 locations last Thanksgiving Day alone. Last year, the company also served more than 41,000 whole turkeys, nearly 3 million pounds of mashed potatoes and more than 13 million pieces of cornbread in November and December.

"So many Thanksgiving memories take place around the dinner table, and it's important to us that our guests be able to share familiar, homestyle dishes with friends and family – without missing all the special moments because they're stuck in the kitchen," CEO George Michel said in a news release. "At Boston Market, we serve holiday staples every day, so our guests can trust us to be a part of their special meal."

Boston Market locations will designate two crew members as Holiday Ambassadors to welcome guests and facilitate their in-restaurant experience.

Boston Market has also partnered with Lisa Leslie, WNBA Hall of Famer, co-host of CBS's new all-female sports show "We Need To Talk," to develop holiday tips and recipes incorporating sides from Boston Market.
