Nashville Hot Fried Chicken
 

Gus or Hattie B? Also...any BBQ recommendations. Thanks!

Anyone???

I have not had Hattie, but give Gus an A plus.

I sputtered on the BBQ question. Edley's on 12th is my favorite. You may have to wait in line on the sidewalk but worthwhile.

Corky has a location in Brentwood right next to Gus. Corky is always reliable.

Lastly, Jim N Nick's BBQ is off an I 40 exit West of town is very good.

Most people disagree with me, but I don't really care for Corky's.

Thanks! Guess the Q's a bigger local item than the hot chicken.

Hot chicken is more of a specifically Nashville specialty, though you can find good barbecue too (I'm more a Whitt's fan than Corky's as well). I haven't tried hot chicken, though. 400 Degrees is right downtown, and Bolton's is across the river on Main Street.

Well...we'll have to try hot chicken as it's a Nashville specialty and pretty much unavailable elsewhere. And I regard BBQ as the quintessential American foodstuff. Fortunately, we're in Nashville two days and can sample both. Thanks again!

DD and DSIL just had their experience at Bolton's. WHAT FUN!! WONDERful, and take it MILD!! Let the lady at the window guide you!! And our kids are NOT wimps.We LOVED the story, and they loved the chicken.
