This weekend is the Hot Chicken Festival in Nashville. I don’t even have to ask Av if he wants to go, because after all, he is a member of the small group of people that can say they ate the hottest level chicken at Prince’s and lived to tell the tale:
And does he ever love to tell people he can do it. It’s not just spicy chicken – it’s crazy hot. We read somewhere that one person will bring it home and sit in a cold bath while they eat it. That’s how hot it is. Hoo.
Prince’s, Bolton’s, and the Chicken Shack will be at the festival for certain, plus there’s an amateur competition also. Joe York did a short film for the SFA about Prince’s Hot Chicken, and this video has some pics from last year’s festival.
…the first 500 people at the festival will get free samples…
