Southern fried chicken · Chattanooga
Bone-in chicken brined, dredged and fried to a mahogany crust, the standard by which Chattanooga's kitchens are judged, from juke-joint plates on MLK to lazy susan spreads on Dodds Avenue.
Fried chicken has been the celebration plate of the Tennessee Valley since well before Chattanooga's restaurant boom, carried through Black Southern kitchens along the Big Nine and church-supper tables across the city. The dish's modern local shrines split the style: pressure-cooked and juke-joint loud on MLK Boulevard, or family-style with vegetables spinning past on a lazy susan. Either way it arrives with white bread, pickle and no apology.
