review, southerns chicken Hammond

Menu

LINK

newly opened in gods country, the original location is in Metairie and it started as a pop up and food truck. Chicken sandwiches, burgers and some rotating menu items. Today for example they had a big smoker out in the parking lot and were selling brisket and pork. Two visits, once alone and once with my wife

Original chicken sandwich is very good, spice level is optional, the breast filet is huge and the bun is high quality. Juicy and flavorful.

Chicken thigh sandwich even better, I had a curry jalepeno version that was very tasty and much smaller than the breast which I preferred. They do an excellent job at the fry station. House made pickles on both sandwiches are nice.

Smashburger will hit all the notes if you like that style and I do. It was the winner of the three sandwiches and I’d go back just for that.

Sides are horrible. Limited to frozen crinkle cut fries and frozen battered rings. Fries are sad but edible, rings are trash. One other thing they should upgrade is condiments…off brand ketchup packets as the only option for dine in is pretty weak, especially considering the prices which are not crazy but not cheap. It was 40 bucks for two people

The people working there are super friendly, the place is nice and clean and everything (sandwiches at least) is made to order.

If they upgraded the sides (fresh cut fries/rings and adding some options like slaw or something) it would be a home run. As it is we will just order the sandwiches next time. 9/10 on the chicken and 10/10 on the burger.
