🍗 Austin | New Spot for CRISPY SPICY FRIED CHICKEN!

Hattie B’s Hot Chicken is here – and it’s a game-changer! While some still prefer Spicy Boys, this Tennessee-style hot chicken joint is winning hearts. ❤️ Here’s how to order like a pro: 🍗 Quarter Bird / Half Bird ✅✅ Traditional Tennessee hot chicken gets its flavor from the seasoned crispy crust (not the meat inside). While 90% of Nashville spots serve explosively juicy meat underneath, Hattie B’s in Austin keeps it tender (though not quite as juicy). Still, the crunch is perfection! 🌶️ Spice Level: I ordered Medium – but feel like they toned it down for Texans. If you handle heat well, go one level up! (I’d be crying in Nashville with anything above Medium 😂). 🍗 Pro Tip: Choose dark meat + Quarter Bird is plenty for one person! 🍵 Sweet Tea ✅✅ A MUST with hot chicken! 🧊💥 Many places in Austin mess this up, but Hattie B’s nails it. Not too sweet – you can dilute it with unsweetened tea if needed (I do 1:1). First-timers: be ready for a Southern classic! 🥗 Creamy Cole Slaw ✅ Forgot to snap a pic, but it’s delicious – creamy, tangy, and refreshing beside the spicy chicken. 🍗 Chicken Wings ✅ If a Quarter Bird is too much, try the wings! Same great flavor, smaller portion. 🏆 Verdict: Not quite as life-changing as the Nashville original, but pretty close! Definitely worth a try. 🚴♀️ 📍 Hattie B’s Hot Chicken 2529 S Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX 78704 #Austin #NashvilleHotChicken #FriedChicken #AustinEats #TexasFoodie 🔥
