Bottom Line: Bacon Cajun Ranch McCrispy from McDonald’s delivers a satisfying chicken sandwich with some good Cajun flavor and a kick of heat.
The Chicken Sandwich Wars have not cooled down yet, and even though McDonald’s has been doing well so far with its McCrispy sammies, that chain is not resting on its laurels. The Golden Arches has launched the Bacon Cajun Ranch McCrispy which piles all sorts of tasty things on their premium chicken...
Bottom Line: The Korean Style Fried Chicken Sandwich from Shake Shack does not bring much heat and it has a hefty price tag, but it still offers a nice twist on the chicken sammie.
Cluck, cluck. Chicken again. Cluck, cluck. The restaurant industry seems to think that chicken—particularly the fried variety—is the only thing they can spice up these days. Cluck, cluck. So, I had chicken again for this review. Cluck, cluck. It’s not that I...
Bottom Line: The 3 Cheese Chicken Flatbread Melt from Taco Bell is on the small side and doesn’t bring much heat, but it is still a good addition to the menu.
It’s 2024 and chicken still rules in the drive thru. I just reviewed the new wings from Whataburger (more on that here) and I have the new KFC Spicy Mac & Cheese Chicken Wrap on the to do list. Meanwhile, Taco Bell has added another new chicken item to its lineup, and it looks like...
Bottom Line: The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich from Chick-Fil-A delivers a nice twist on the premium poultry sandwich and the spicy version brings a kick.
The fast food establishments continue to wage the Chicken Sandwich Wars with each lobbing a new salvo into the field on a regular basis. Chick-fil-A is currently winning amongst the purveyors of poultry as it is the Number 3 chain in sales in the U.S. (as of last year) and the only...
Bottom Line: The Spicy Chicken Biscuit from Chick-Fil-A delivers an excellent breakfast sandwich with a bit of a kick.
More and more fast food joints have been adding spicy offerings to their breakfast menus and that’s not a bad thing for those of us who like a little bit of heat first thing in the morning. Biscuits have been particularly popular lately with McDonald’s putting out the Cheesy Jalapeno Sausage & Egg Sandwich and...
Bottom Line: The Nashville Fire Chicken Sandwich from Pecan Street Brewing is not a typical version of that classic, but it delivers that perfect point where fire meets flavor.
The chains have plenty of options out there for good, spicy chicken sandwiches as each tries to top the competition in the Chicken Sandwich Wars. But if you look beyond the better-known restaurants and fast food joints, you can find some blazing poultry offerings that...
Bottom Line: The Creamy Chipotle Crispy Chicken Taco from Taco Bell is quite familiar and quite tasty, but not too spicy. A Volcano version would surely be welcome.
Taco Bell is trying to get into the Chicken Sandwich Wars action again. Not quite so blatantly as when it put out the Chicken Sandwich Taco (which was pretty good, more on that here), but they are promoting crispy chicken once more hoping to convince people that a taco is the better...
Bottom Line: The Chipotle Ranch Crispy Chicken Sandwich from Biller Miller’s delivers a superior poultry sammy with a little bit of a kick.
The Chicken Sandwich Wars have led to quite a number of poultry options showing up at the fast food chains over the last few years. But if the opportunity presents itself to go local, I always prefer to take that route. Bill Miller’s is a barbeque and chicken chain that is exclusive to San Antonio and...
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: Wendy’s kicks up its usually good spicy chicken to the next level with the Ghost Pepper Ranch version and throws in some blazing fries as well.
Well, it had to happen. I’m back to chicken. I have been avoiding the bird the last few weeks to get some reviews of other foods on the site, but the fact is that the restaurant industry loves to spice up its poultry. And that’s not a bad thing because I really enjoy chicken sandwiches...
