Bottom Line: The Fiery Chicken Nuggets from Burger King may not be as spicy as promised, but they have a kick and go well with the Zesty Sauce.
Chicken is back on the menu for me as the restaurant chains continue to spice up their poultry offerings. And Burger King has put out its fair share of kickin’ chicken over the last few years, with yet another new item just added to the list. They have Fiery Chicken Nuggets available at the drive thru...
Bottom Line: The Loaded Jerk Fries and the Habanero Jerk Wings from Dos Sirenos deliver some good heat, and there are plenty of beers on tap to cool that down.
There are quite a number of breweries in San Antonio and the surrounding area (which I cover at my other site CraftBeersandMore.com), and among those one of my favorites is Dos Sirenos which is located south of downtown. They have a nice selection of beers on tap and a good food menu that...
Bottom Line: The new Spicy Original from Schlotzsky’s kicks up the heat on a near-perfect deli sandwich.
Right about one year ago, I ventured over to Schlotzsky’s--one of my favorite sandwich shops--and ordered what I referred to as the Spicy Original. That was not an actual menu item at the time but consisted of my own menu hack that subbed in jalapeno cheese bread instead of sourdough and also added jalapenos to their original sandwich. It...
Bottom Line: The Spicy Crispy Chicken Wrap from Jack in the Box is pretty filling and it brings a nice kick of heat with it.
Jack is back at it again spicing up items on his menu, and he usually does a good job with bringing the heat. His Blazin’ Cluck Sandwich compares fairly well to the Popeyes Spicy Chicken (more on that here), and his spicy chicken strips really deliver a kick (read more about those here, and they are back on the menu...
Bottom Line: Weak Knees Gochujang Sriracha is a gourmet version of the familiar sauce that delivers a unique taste along with some heat.
Huy Fung Sriracha is still hard to find in the stores these days due to a chili pepper shortage (more on that here), but there are options out there to hold you over until those green-topped bottles start returning to the shelves. Weak Knees Gochujang Sriracha may not be a direct replacement for the rooster...
Bottom Line: Bluelguana Cantina is serving up some tasty tacos and burritos on the high seas with handmade tortillas and fresh salsa that delivers a kick.
Are you looking for some good tacos and burritos along fresh tortillas and spicy salsa that delivers a good burn? Well, I have just the place for you. The only thing is you are going to have to be on a boat to enjoy it. A Carnival Cruise ship to be exact. I recently did cruise on the Carnival...
Bottom Line: The Waterfront Brewery in Key West has some good spicy offerings on the menu along with a nice selection of beers to wash those down with.
If you happen to find yourself in Key West (which is a particularly good place to find yourself) and you are looking for a good brew and something spicy to go with that, I have a recommendation for you. That island at the southern tip of Florida happened to be one of the stops on a cruise I was...
Bottom Line: The Chile Verde sauce adds a nice twist with a bit of kick to the already familiar flavors of Taco Bell’s loaded Nacho Fries.
Big news! Taco Bell has a brand new item on its menu! It is unlike anything you have ever seen from the chain and it is sure to have people lining up around the block to try it and . . . well . . . okay . . . you’re probably not believing a word I am saying anyway. Yes, the Bell has a new item on the...
