The Best Traditional Nashville Hot Chicken in Nashville | Eater Nashville

"Nashville native Eric “Red” White’s Midtown restaurant specializes in hot but incredibly flavorful fried chicken sandwiches, catfish, and stellar sides like pimento mac and cheese and seasoned fries. Red’s 615 Kitchen begins with a 36-hour brine of buttermilk and hot sauce before breading the chicken, letting it rest for two hours, frying it up to order, and dousing it with a proper dose of a secret blend of Nashville hot seasoning and lard. Comeback sauce and slaw balance out the heat nicely in a sandwich, while a fun take on a Crunchwrap is stuffed with hot chicken, pickles, and pimento mac and cheese." - Kellie Walton
