An Easy Route to A Hot Item On Menus
The legendary start of this hot chicken story remains. According to the latest analysis from Datassential, ‘Nashville Hot’ grew on menus by 41% last year. Since 2019, it has grown an amazing 309%.
Still growing by more than 30%1 a year, Nashville Hot Chicken’s strong following led to today’s explosion of spicy chicken sandwiches and almost any spicy type of chicken that is breaded and fried. Whether you enjoy the medium heat of Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce or kick up the heat with Texas Pete® Hotter Hot Sauce and its 3,500 Scoville Units, Texas Pete® has the perfect blend of bold flavor and variations in heat.
The Texas Pete® Innovation Kitchen has helped chains overcome the biggest hurdle in adding a Nashville Hot Chicken to their menu by reducing the number of ingredients necessary down to just four ingredients in the panty from a typical list of more than 10 ingredients. They’ve made it even easier with a 32-second video to show how it’s done with two of the ingredients being Texas Pete® Dust Dry Seasoning and Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce.
The simplification of trend-worthy recipes for new menu items is at the heart of a growing collection of Texas Pete® Simple As recipe ideas. The entire collection involves recipes of five or fewer ingredients that can be prepared in less than 10 minutes in batches of up to 100 servings. A similar collection of easy-to-prep signature sauce recipes can also be found in the Simple As Collection.
Hot chicken is still blazing a trail across American menus. There is plenty of time to grab the demand for ‘Nashville Hot’ for your menu. Just make it easy with some help from Texas Pete®.
