Carolina fried chicken is buttermilk-brined chicken double-dredged in seasoned flour and fried crisp, served with biscuits, pimento cheese and a hot honey.

By the 20th century the dish was the canonical Sunday-supper plate across Charlotte's churches and mill households. Today Price's Chicken Coop, Haberdish and Mert's Heart and Soul keep the Charlotte tradition with cast-iron-fried birds and seasoned crust.
