Nashville’s Hottest Hot Chicken at Home

[@aazrs]

Something I really like about Andy is how he always gives alternatives to the ingredients e.g. beef tallow if you don't eat lard/pork. First noticed this on an older video for fish and chips, substituting beer with soda (?), which is great for someone who doesn't consume alcohol. It's not something I really see in other channels. Very considerate, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates it. Love your videos!

[@maximilianbogner657]

The alcohol evaporates when frying

[@faheemshah505]

​@maximilianbogner657 Yeah but for former alcoholics even having that one beer near them is a big danger

[@KomandantMirko]

@@maximilianbogner657 that's a myth big tv chefs keep perpetuating. the volume of it will be lowered. but you need like hours of cooking to actually remove all alcohol from something. if you cook something for 15 minutes, you've eliminated around half of it. studies have been done on this, but people still parrot what gordon ramsey or whichever other celebrity says it. it's one of those culinary myths that's been around for like a hundred years and nobody really tested it until recently.

[@Sniperboy5551]

@faheemshah505 I don’t think “former” alcoholics are the biggest concern, I think the real concern is Muslims, Mormons or other religions that can’t consume alcohol.

[@buu9174]

​@@Sniperboy5551 the same information would have been conveyed if you stopped your comment 3 words in

[@tishw4576]

Thank you for going to the USA and having fun with the food. America is truly a melting pot of tastes and textures. Nashville is so amazing.

[@dngr_412]

hey man I used to beg you for slices of cheese at the pass, I'm really glad to see you on youtube you were a gem to work with

[@spencerharper18]

I can't believe I missed you coming to Nashville! I'm a native born and raised here and absolutely love your content. Your culinary skills level is insane and a joy to witness. Hope you win Creator of the Year 🤘🏻

[@Juggadoosh]

He went to my fav bbq spot in austin with Joshua a few weeks ago and it’s like 10 minutes from my house. I was soooo pissed when I saw the upload lol

[@jarrusjenkins]

HI Andy, I'm glad you're an advocate of Movember. I did it this year in honour of my best friend who sadly took his own life in July this year. Thanks for raising so much money for a good cause. And lads, don't be afraid of talking to someone about your issues. If my friend had done so we could have saved him from himself :( Take care Brett

[@sirducksworth3345]

Hey man I love ur videos , could u please make a Peruvian ceviche? My grandmother is Peruvian and loves your videos and she would love to see u make Peruvian dishes. ❤🇵🇪

[@adammoore7447]

Agreed. I live in Peru and it would be cool to see him make a "real" ceviche..no fruit, orange juice, tomatoes, etc. Just fish/shellfish(mariscos), lime juice, red onion, cilantro, aji(chili pepper), and a bit of salt. Simple, but the best...

[@phylliswurm9473]

Also Lomo saltado.

[@frankd4984]

There are two Shorts on this channel with Ceviche. Just have a look.

[@adammoore7447]

I just did. What he made was not (traditional) ceviche@@frankd4984

[@harrylloyd6955]

​@@adammoore7447isnt lime juice a fruit?

[@soulfires17]

I love how humble/normal Andy is. You're an amazing cook and your videos are great. Ty!

[@juffurey]

Hey please keep this series going, it's great! There's another Chinese chicken dish you would love, it's called mouth-watering chicken! (koushuiji)

[@maydayay]

One of the best chefs. Keeps it authentic.

[@Liquidmetal181]

I use a mixture of buttermilk and pickle juice for my marinade, works wonders!

[@GatsbyDen041]

First time I'm watching your videos. I love that you mention the different temperatures in Fahrenheit and Celsius too. Makes it so easier than to convert it

[@jeremyglover5541]

OMG, tenders are so basic, but you do a good job of making them appealing. love youre work mate.

[@leilaeissa3348]

Andy can do anything!

[@infinitiENJOYER]

I know it's small but as a Muslim it was nice to hear when you said you cant just opt out of the pork lard for beef tallow. Small gesture but cool to see! You're a great cook Andy so keep it coming.

[@slyfox1851]

Bismillah

[@DavidScheidler-cr4il]

my favorite was Ms. Andre, she was such a great host and restrateur and a national treasure

[@RobertaG556]

This looks so delicious! You can basically finish with any yummy sauce - as hot or as mild --- for kids! Great video!

[@Umy.22]

Beautiful! I love how you cook and explore dishes from different cultures. you could maybe try making lamb mandi (Arab/yemeni food) in one of the upcoming videos. Look forward to learning how to make that! Had it twice but no idea how to make it

[@andy_cooks]

Noted!

[@2Wheels_NYC]

Nice, Andy! Great take on a Tennessee classic!

[@CarlosRodriguez-dd4sb]

Spot on! Makes me miss TN and it’s delicious food. You should also do their breakfast biscuits

[@ChaseFreedomMusician]

I love to use clarified butter instead of lard because of the flavor

[@kazwilson425]

Ooh, thanks for that. Might try it.

[@ebonyladyy]

Exactly!

[@padders1068]

Andy, Chef and Legend! I'm sure all those lovely people you met in Nashville would approve of this recipe. Peace and ❤ to you and the team

[@artustbbq1195]

Nice to see someone who's actually taken the time to visit Nashville then come and do it properly. See so many people making 'Nashville chicken' nowadays that's actually nothing like the real stuff. So bravo dude. Well played.

[@adamwarren5654]

Agreed. Would have been awesome to run into Andy while he was here.

[@Canman99]

Seeing people from Nashville comment like this is a good sign that maybe I should follow this recipe!

[@adamwarren5654]

YES, the soaked bread is one of my favorite parts of eating Nashville hot chicken.

[@jsrrrmg]

American Southern Cooking 101 Tip!! NEVER use store bought processed lard. Render down fat from a good piece of pork shoulder or pork butt. Store bought processed lard is just flavorless nasty!! In the states, you can by packed pork fat to render down for homemade lard.

[@pattiboychannel311]

Looks amazing, cheers Andy

[@Micko350]

9:08 "Give 'em anover dusting in that Fresh Oil!" ok... 👌

[@jasonruka1665]

😂

[@NashvilleSenorita]

We love our hot chicken!

[@rorywiley76]

Chef thanks for the valuable info Nashville hot chicken is so good. I appreciate it mate

[@fatality153]

This maybe, is the best food video on the internet, ever.

[@derekknight5069]

Great vid chef! I really enjoy your content and look forward to more! God bless!!

[@reidquiggins]

That color is 🔥

[@MH-bv3hc]

What a guy! Who can not love Andy! All the best from Oregon

[@jzzanetis]

Born and raised Nashvillian here. Well done sir. You make us proud. 🎉

[@michaelhansard-fu7rw]

Andy, you are the man!!!!!

[@kenardy]

Can't wait to try this! Just watched your Nashville chicken video and went to your main channel page and was hoping this video would be here!!! Loving this series mate.

[@miamiles7996]

I'm making this today I'm going to put cayenne and add a few habaneros

[@WegottaLovett]

Did a road trip from LA to Notth Carolina during spring break during covid. Ate the hot chicken at Hattie Bs. So good! Thx Andy. From the Kiwi who now lives in LA.

[@122222770]

Nashville is a great place. The south has a lot to offer. Hope you make it to the Georgia. Take care!

[@biancaanabella]

Andyyy!! I mean uncle andy i love thissss ❤❤❤

[@ZanaRahman]

Your respect for saying if someone doesn’t eat pork for some Reason as a Muslim Watching an aussie chef making an Americana classic just made my heart so emo ❤ you’re amazing Andy ❤

[@AM-ni3sz]

Great job 😊

[@usaidikram1]

Love that Chef Andy has Joshua Weissman Books in the background shelf

[@edstringer1138]

Florida here , not all are hot but they do add good Flavor .. Alot of people lightly baste and pan fry fish in puree Dry areas grow hotter peppers ,,, North Florida they get sweet because it is so wet ,,, Try smoking them with a smoker into salt Also Datil also a good pepper to puree when doing fried chicken

[@Drak976]

Why is spicy chicken so magical? Spicy fish and spicy beef are good but spicy chicken is on a whole notha level. the HNL.

[@OlDirtyChinesRestaurant]

Omg. Im sweating just watching this. Lol

[@johnwilliams7236]

Great job Andy. You’re an awesome chef and down to earth person. Keep the content coming please!

[@andy_cooks]

Thank you! Will do!

[@TheFridgeRadier]

We were glad to have you in my state Andy!! Love the longer content as well

[@fatality153]

Best chef on the internet too

[@kongxiawei]

Last night, Ben said butter on chicken skin can loosen the layer stick to flesh when deep frying

[@jettm8889]

Haha right level of spice as he’s feeling the pain

[@qbertq1]

I didn't know you were such an advocate for mental health. You should do a collab with Nat from Nat's What I Reckon, who is another Aussie concerned with mental health.

[@laza1212]

Thank you for using equipment we already have (this is your 1st vid I've seen).

[@richardmorgan767]

Looks unreal! I’m definitely going to give this a go, and also loved your Nashville video and have saved the places to go to next year when I’m there! Cheers

[@tildessmoo]

"Right level of spice" *cough cough*😂 Yep, that's the right level of spice, all right! Given the time of year, I'm pondering for my next Thanksgiving making Nashville hot turkey. Granted, only two of us would eat it, but I still think it'd be amazing.

[@walastikdingruth]

Excellent marinade enhances the flavor and cook to perfection, this is a flavorful hot chicken recipe!

[@johnnyheidi2839]

I’d love to see a cook off with Ramsey I think you two would get on like an house on fire .

[@ray7419]

Great job Chef Andy!! I live in Nashville, and yes, Hattie B’s and Prince’s are the original and best places to go for Hot Chicken. Mo’ hotta, Mo’ betta. 🌶️👍

[@thorstendombrowski4018]

I made some Nashville hot chickensandwiches and they were really hot great recipe greetings from northwest germany 😀😀😀

[@Indianvinod]

Nice chef 👌

[@ToolWrangler]

Love that you called out the oysters! My favorite bite!

[@kyliemcdaniel]

Interesting. I never realized how close buffalo chicken and nashville hot chicken are. I guess its just brown sugar and oil in place of butter and vinegar and the rest is pretty much the same. both cayenne based.

[@ericpettyfishing]

For anyone into punishingly hot chicken like me, amazon sells almost any pepper you can imagine, in powder form.

[@tqesylverne9757]

try adding pickly juice to the marinade. Hatty B's does it that way in Nashvillle, i tried it and it was earth shattering.

[@byorce]

I grew up down the street from prince's. This is one of my favorite meals. delicious!

[@david8264]

Here I am, from Nashville, watching someone from NZ make hot chicken. Haha, i’m glad you enjoyed it!! Love your content

[@andy_cooks]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@arg8763]

I'm a Hattie B guy, but Prince's is good too. It is such a simple dish that there is no reason to think that anyone anywhere can't make a good one. As blasphemous as it it, I honestly think KFC did a really good job with their Nashville Hot sauce, and on the extra crispy it actually was pretty good. Most Nashville people will lose their shit if you even mention KFC in the same sentence as Nashville Hot Chicken, but getting folks like that riled up is part of the fun.

[@brownhues]

I'll take Bolton's and leave Hattie B's gentrified-ass chicken alone. Prince's still good though.

[@wilb6657]

Nashville Hot chicken is super special, and Andy;s version looks really good! I personally just had some for dinner tonight....

[@spliffin5300]

Any reason you don’t separate the thigh and leg from one another? Just curious. Looks amazing!

[@Gamingredneck2397]

As a Nashville native, I definitely approve this. Good shit brother

[@krispykruzer]

I was really impressed with your rendition of the Nashville chicken, it was clean, well made and looked delicious The amount of oil used in the whole thing is definitely worrying, I definitely don’t need any more fat, will probably keep it as a once in a decade type of dish 😊

[@benclayton3762]

Damn that looks good!!!! Top work Andy!!

[@Leannaszone]

Lovin' all the "foods of the world's" and how you show, how each culture injects their flavour into their foods.

[@Handren-Ibrahim]

Andys channel is turning into a fast food channel

[@Streetfoodaround.]

Andy Cook my favourite ❤

[@dgrblue4162]

As Thanksgiving in the US as just passed, leftovers are aplenty, it is time for the Hot Brown.

[@benjim_]

This looks fkn mint! Recipe for the weekend for sure!!! Thanks mate :)

[@scottle6]

Whenever we make wings or Nashville hot chicken, make sure you have some mozzarella sticks to bread and fry as well and then give them a dip in the sauce too….game changing and works amazingly with any wing sauce

[@andrewpinheiro7202]

Well done man looks great! Can’t wait to try this one.

[@andrestherock1]

Those fries potatoes looks tasty, do you have a video how to make them?

[@chrisalbritton5026]

Hey Andy. You’re videos are great. Could you make loin of venison?

[@Lukas-dk34h]

Now how about seasoning the frying oil?

[@Yogachijournal]

Love that you mentioned thai birds eye chilli. It would make a super spicy aromatic spicy fried chicken indeed! I love it!

[@joshmoore1470]

Andy is literally the goat!!!!!

[@joanwalford1959]

Delicious and mouthwatering

[@karanahal]

Chopping board goals over here

[@jakubkoodziejczyk8442]

Looking really nice! Can you make some polish cuisine? Maybe polish dumplings called "pierogi" 😀

[@cyndifoore7743]

You said it right with the peanut oil, the best.

[@davidgaluszka8038]

You know it's spicy when the host is struggling to speak in the outro. Gotta try this out fo sho

[@mattymatt67]

Looks yummy.

[@clairewright8153]

Thanks for this video, love that you did this and that chicken looks amazing going to have to make this one.

[@andy_cooks]

You are so welcome!

[@HunterVlog350cc]

there is a chain 😅n huderabad- rayalseema ruchulu - eat there and water will come out of all places- head/ nose/ eyes

[@hotvillechicken2355]

Interesting recipe.

[@ZanaRahman]

Just donated! I’d love to have a cookbook from you but even if I don’t just having been here from your early days to now and seeing all your success makes me so so happy and you helping great causes is another reason I admire you so much!

[@UTube-gs1yf]

FM that looks good. I wanna go to Nashville just to eat their chicken after watching you do it in the last outing

[@MGA19a]

The irony of chicken life - you marinate it with (among other things of course) eggs that the "same" chicken lays 😀

[@jillhbaudhaan]

Hiya! Could I skip the flour dredge and frying and bake the chicken with the spicy beef tallow?

[@fatihsengul1980]

I just made and ate it. Frikkin awesome, man was it tasty. 🤜🤛👍

[@Kaijiro____93]

Next thing I want Andy to try and make Portuguese or Hong Kong Egg Tarts with Pastry from scratch!!!

[@RyanMartin-wg7gm]

Right on Andy thank you very much Sr let's eat

[@sandrablackburn4583]

Beautiful food
