If any of y'all have been to Nashville recently, you may have heard of or tried the culinary godsend that is hot chicken. Here is an interesting article about its history.

God, I would kill for that basket in the pic. I have been on a diet for 11 days now.... When I hit two hundred (30) pounds I'm eating a whole jerked turkey by myself.

One of the Nashville hot chicken places is supposed to be opening a location here in Bham sometime soon.

Its the only one I have had in nashville, but its not the best simply because the store lacks the quality AC required to deal with the hot chicken.

So basically It's fried chicken with a lot of pepper?
Just googled recipe. It's the exact recipe that I use but with more cayenne. Not a big deal.

The cayenne isn't in the dredge. It's in a sauce you brush on after frying the chicken. From the epicurious recipe:

quote:

Whisk cayenne, brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, and paprika in a medium bowl; carefully whisk in 1 cup frying oil. Brush fried chicken with spicy oil. Serve with bread and pickles.


The result is more like fried chicken buffalo wings with a really hot cayenne sauce.
