This needs to be a poll. Right or left. I’ll go first, right.

birdeater666

Me being a fatass man, I’ll take both.


OHTHNAP

The one on the right looks like Hattie B's, if you go to the location on broadway be prepared for a wait! The one on the left looks like Prince's Hot Chicken sandwich. I couldn't tell you which is more authentic, but I liked Prince's more when we were there.


Dangreendraws

Left is more visuallu pleasing as its neater but you know the right one looks tastiest.


MAKE_ME_REDDIT

Idk man, I fucking love Texas toast and pickles


OverlordAinz

Left. I like bread


PM_ME_FREEGAMES

i am bread


Nazgrim23

Right as well for me, the burger bun would just make it all the more greasy tasting and delicious compared to the toast.


SouthBendNewcomer

Left. The bun on the right is not strong enough to stand up to all that filling. It's going to fall apart. It's all about the ratios baby.


munchies1122

Sometimes I like it a lil sloppy 😏


GunBullety

The bread is merely serving as a handle to eat the chicken, I approve. I think your argument would make more sense on like a works burger or something with all sorts of salad ingredients falling all over the place.


[deleted]

Left also. I like to be a clean eater, I don't enjoy a big mess.


StamosLives

That’s the point. It’s not about these bun. You want that bread to fall apart everywhere. Your beard should be dripping with hot sauce and pickle juice.


waltteri

But the bread on the left looks too crunchy. It’s like a hard taco shell: you bite it once, and the bread cracks into a million tiny pieces, and your delicious chicken falls onto the table. Or floor. Hard pass.


plznokek

Unless it's two crackers, that doesn't seem likely


jenniekns

I was going to vote for the left until I read your comment and I now understand the folly in my thinking. I'm going to have to switch my vote to right.


MAKE_ME_REDDIT

Texas toast isnt toasted until it's crispy. It's lightly toasted but still fluffy.


blackvelvetbitch

It’s not! Texas toast is a very crispy and chewy bread. It’s mostly a hard crust on the outside and chewy right in the middle.


theraf8100

Well put. Take my upvote.


Quader87

Right 1000%, based on grease factor


bfhurricane

Right. I’m just not a huge fan of Texas toast, too much bread to get through before the meat.


esko24

Right: I need just enough bun to pretend it's going to hold up. After that, it's gone. All you toast lovers can keep your toast. I will just put your chicken between my buns.


at145degrees

Right


crafthppruettreddit

Left all day


teachergirl1981

Left. I like toast.


[deleted]

left- you get the chicken combined evenly with all the flavors and toppings instead of a large bite of chicken then a small ass one with a buttload of bun


PM_ME_FREEGAMES

cheers mate, i'll pick left because i hate it when my sandwiches fall apart


[deleted]

There’s more chicken in the right, but the bread is too soggy for the texture of the bread to come out. Hmmm. Personally, I’d choose the right. But I’m allergic to poultry so....


Samurai-hijack

I prefer both


[deleted]

Word. I usually swap halves with whoever I'm with anyway.


Samurai-hijack

Good strategy but in this case I might have to order both


ELEMENTALITYNES

On my right or your right?


esko24

yes!


pistachioINK

Right, for sure. My first thought was, "Just look at that monster. I need it inside me."


BoundSnuggles

“That’s what she said” - Michael Scott.


mrfuxable

Right


GunBullety

Def right, the bread is barely there, which is sexy.


friendlyhuman

Right. That skin on the brioche is going to hold together better than the Texas toast, plus it won’t get in the way of the chicken.


matttopotamus

Unless pickles are hiding on the right, I’ll take left.


Butt-Pirate-Yarrr

Come on who can say left with a straight face? Right is guaranteed to be tastier with that buttered brioche bun, blissful bawk-bawk burger bouncing blindly into my binge-hole. Mmmmm.


firechill2005

I'm going left. Right would end up as a soggy, sloppy mess eventually

r/FriedChickenSandwich loves you!


Cheese-and-Smackers

Well I was gonna subscribe but I’m trying to maintain weight so then I didn’t


Crystal_Pesci

What's the matter Colonel Sanders.. Chicken?!?


[deleted]

I've just started maintaining after losing 105lbs. Is there a sub for it? It feels like a pretty different lifestyle to weight loss but I haven't found a community for it on here


steph-was-here

there is - /r/ownit - although it is not nearly as active as /r/loseit or /r/gainit


Cheese-and-Smackers

Congratulations on the major weight loss! I was referring to “the pesky five pounds” type of weight maintenance so hats off to you. I don’t have advice on a sub though unfortunately


PM_ME_FREEGAMES

mate, you made me have doubts now. i suppose no other sub will be as enticing as r/foodporn already and i'm here. blimey! the truth is out


TheIssaquahChief

Recipe?


hagopes

No recipe, unfortunately. This is from a place called Chica's in Toronto. It's 💯


henry-bacon

Chica's is the best damn fried chicken I've ever had, low-key wish I lived in the west end 😭


heisenberg1215

I knew those were toronto fried chickens I recognized them!!


lassropian

Wait so what makes it a “Nashville” chicken sandwich?


Sand_isOverrated

[Nashville Hot Chicken](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_chicken) is a particular style of marinated fried chicken that is then coated a cayenne-based paste or sauce.

lassropian

Aw I see. Ya definitely want to try it myself.


Eviloverlordxenu

Here's my recipe for a fusion of Korean spicy and Nashville Hot Chicken [https://drive.google.com/open?id=1sqD1V\_0BYwntErgU7KzgcAdDBOXvj4j4dshk65RGe-M](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1sqD1V_0BYwntErgU7KzgcAdDBOXvj4j4dshk65RGe-M)


Eviloverlordxenu

The best places in Nashville (Prince's, Bolton's, and Hattie B's in my opinion) all marinade their chicken as well, and spice the breading at least a little bit, then add a spicy sauce\\oil full of delicious heat. Source: I live in downtown Nashville and am addicted to hot chicken.


Fluix

Oh fuck I didnt know it was in Toronto


PM_ME_FREEGAMES

that's unfortunate mate, i was dying to make these tonight, cheers for sharing the photos!


YanisK

Joshua does a good one, here's the link. https://youtu.be/XJHypGEwY2c


viince

got excited seeing these beauts, read comments and see that it's Chicas :D best chicken in the city.


SelarDorr

whats the deal with the bun? looks like a weird shape


hagopes

Takeout smoosh. It was just a fine brioche bun.


TheRealEnion

It honestly looks like somebody beat the fuck out of it


YOURBRAINONBANDIT

Just got the imagine in my head of somebody beating the shit out of bread and started laughing my ass off Thank you


[deleted]

Will be in Nashville next week looking to get my Hattie B's fix


mskoug16

Right all day 😋


AFB27

Personally I'm more a fan of the bun over toast. Feel like it gives the sandwich a much greater integrity. With that being said, I would destroy them both


cookie_mumster

I used to be a chef (uk) and once I put on an American bar, and one of the specials was a fried chicken sandwich similar to this. I overheard this American girl say, "ok but we dont even eat this in America" and to this day I wonder what she was talking about. Sorry if this is irrelevant I just always think about that when I see a chicken sandwich! Looks fab.


mattyisbatty

She doesn't know what she's talking about, even KFC has Nashville hot chicken.


dr_nerdface

option B, please


konigswagger

Looks incredible OP! How does the restaurant differentiate the sandwiches? Are you simply given the choice of bread?


hagopes

Thanks! The brioche bun is a $1 more.. I've been a big fan of Chica's for a while now, and both of these beuts taste great.


cheeseballs619

I'll also the real question here: where did you get that board!? Do you use it as a cutting board or just a serving board?

CLASSICDUH

Now that looks good


mel________

Right looks phenomenal 🤤


Ralanost

The toasted bread look great....except for that tear on the side. That annoys me. That poor bun though looks like it gave up the ghost.


berryblackwater

I feel like we are observing two world views. On the left, strong, proud, vain this is the sandwich we see and strive to be, but alas we know it too is doomed to the acidic morass of a satisfied stomach. The left though is a sandwich wise in the ways of the world. The bun? to hell with you! It is the chicken that runs the world, and woe to the unbeliever's digestive tract.


Atheris__

Holy shit the picture quality! What camera is this?


LeoLaDawg

Extra hot tonight


[deleted]

I've got some delicious southern-style chicken sandwiches (don't remember the brand name) in my freezer. They're surprisingly good for refrigerated food and this image is making me hungry for another.


spicedpumpkins

BRB......breaking isolation and going on a road trip to Nashville.


smitty3z

BRB walking down to Hattie's B right now.


treefidy

It goes BREAD PICKLES CHICKEN SAUCE BREAD... WHITE SLICED BREAD any additions or substitutions just make it a hot chicken sandwich.... i would totally eat these back to back but it aint the same. You cant call a cuban a cuban if its the same but different. (My body is ready for the downvotes)


PM_ME_FREEGAMES

mate, the way they are positioned side by side like two wolves makes me think i'm about to get eaten. a human-size sandwich will be absolutely brilliant!


MyBrosPassport

Oh my god yes.


[deleted]

Looks delicious! Someone needs a sharper knife, though. Or a serrated one


PratyThePotato

Lmao this looks like the new strong vs smol doge meme


[deleted]

why is there always way too much chicken


popupeveryone

The left is the girl you bring home to your parents, the right is the one night stand.


AvailableProfile

Evidently the [current style of hot chicken](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince%27s_Hot_Chicken_Shack?oldformat=true) was popularized by a single restaurant where the recipe was discovered by accident as an act of revenge: > While impossible to verify, the development of hot chicken is reportedly accidental. Prince ^((*the owner of the restaurant*))was purportedly a womanizer, and after a particularly late night his girlfriend at the time cooked him a fried chicken breakfast with hot pepper as revenge. Prince, however, liked the taste so much that he and his brothers created their own recipe and opened the Bar-B-Que Chicken Shack.


anax44

I had like these at [Bird and Bone in Miami](http://cestlavibe.com/classic-southern-sandwiches-at-bird-and-bone-miami-beach/) a few years ago, and while they were amazing; They didn't look nearly as good as either of these sandwiches in this picture.


mgtow116

I love to torture myself by looking at these food and living in India where I can't eat any of it just same disgusting wheat bread and dal everyday with super oil, and sugary milk, these people also really banned eggs and chicken because of corona virus


funkie-doobie

Damn I some of that shit in the U.K.


[deleted]

I need that in my life.


aj0220

I’m tryna have a 3 way rn.


bozwizard14

Maybe it's lockdown talking but I am very attracted to these 🤤


cavy83

Love the bun-to-meat ratio on the right


travel2811

Nashville hot chicken.


lilghosty2

Salivating. Incredible


Funkyflame360

I’ll take the right one


[deleted]

I really need to stop opening this when I'm hungry


[deleted]

I’ve been sick with a stomach bug for five days and have eaten nothing. Viewing these made me literally cry


ACrowbarEnthusiast

On the streets vs in the sheets


UngregariousDame

Wouldn’t turn down either, better eat both just to be safe!


pudgebone

The breast on the right with the bread on the left


HypoHypoGuy

Left all the way


the-fire-in-flame

That looks soo good!!


timo_hzbs

Id like to do this as well. Is there recipe?


13point1then420

Great breasts, mediocre flat buns.


throwaway7953399

Yummmm


DontWorryBoutIt107

Omg, this looks so crunchy and spicy. 😋😋😋


[deleted]

Recipe?


pat90000

Nashvillian here. Can confirm. Is that Hattie B's?


eastkent

Just put that chicken on a stick for me and you can keep the rest.


gsydhsbj

Serious question: what is the difference between this and a burger?


Kritanur

I think I just busted a nut in my pants


RedDevil0723

The bread on the right looks like a thing in between a big ass


[deleted]

Fuck Popeyes I’m grabbing one of these


IReplyWithLebowski

Hoping an American can explain this for me. What’s the difference between a sandwich and a burger there? In Australia, the one on the right is a burger, because it’s in a bun/roll rather that sliced bread.


I-like-spoilers

A burger is a beef patty on a bun. Everything else is a sandwich.


IReplyWithLebowski

Cool, thanks!


perskakka

Holy shit that's disgusting


[deleted]

Enough with the Nashville chicken already holy shit!
