If you prefer your fried chicken sandwiches on the spicy side, you'll be thrilled to hear that Wayback Burgers just dropped a new Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich for the summer.
For those unfamiliar, Nashville hot chicken is a Nashville-specific take on fried chicken. The dish usually consists of a chicken breast, thigh, or wing that's been marinated with a blend of seasoning, before it's floured, fried, and topped with a paste spiced with cayenne pepper. Now you can sample this tasty dish at your local Wayback Burgers location for a limited time. The chain's version consists of a crispy breaded chicken filet coated in Nashville Hot Sauce and topped with sliced pickles.
The new Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich can be found at participating locations now through September 9, 2022.
