2018 Music City Hot Chicken Festival: Who's Got the Juice?

7/5/2018

0 Comments

 
Nashville's July 4th celebrations encompass the annual Music City Hot Chicken Festival. In case you are new to Nashville or this is your first time hearing of this event, let me explain. The Music City Hot Chicken Festival is where the city celebrates the cuisine it started, HOT CHICKEN. That's right, Nashville put hot chicken on the map! So it's only right that it has a festival devoted to just that. This event is the only local festival where you will find the best hot chicken in the city IN ONE SPOT.

From famous hot chicken shacks like Princes to hot chicken food trucks like 400 Degrees, festival attendees are guaranteed to taste a  new version of hot chicken from each vendor they visit. You may find that you can handle the spicy skin at one place and get choked on the skin at another. FYI (unless you are like me and love spicy foods), stay away from the veterans. Most of them know how to bring heat to the actual chicken meat. Pickles are the signature! I digress...

Like all contests, a winner is declared. The winner of the Hot Chicken Festival Cooking Contest is announced on the big stage after numerous performances.

Congrats to Big Steve and the Chickadees for taking home the trophy this year! My photos and videos from the 12th Annual Music City Hot Chicken Festival are below.

BANDS, JUDGES AND WINNERS, OHHH MY!!!

@NC5_LelanStatom and @MayorBriley The temps weren't the only thing making y'all sweat! @HotChickenFest brought the heat to these judges.? #HappyFourth #NASHVILLEJULY4TH #hotchickenfest #hotchicken #4thofJuly2018 pic.twitter.com/tD25efhbGf
