What's on chick fil a's spicy chicken sandwich?
An actual spicy chicken breast

Popeyes is good, but they should actually include a spicy chicken breast instead of just spicy mayo

The secret is definitely out, big time. I guess the twitter hype worked.

I just passed by 2 different Popeyes and both were absolutely slammed. One of the two I know is never busy. Ever.

Craziness.

Wow.
Mine was made wrong then.
I had it about 4 weeks ago in Metairie and it had no mayo, it was definitely their sweet heat sauce. It was really really good, but 100% didn't have mayo on it.
Just chicken, pickles, sauce.

The gauntlet has been thrown down by Reviewbrah. He prefers the chick-fil-a.

Went grab some for lunch for myself and a few coworkers, I went inside to order since I had to place a few different orders, while waiting 4 of the 6 drive thru orders were chicken sandwiches. They had 3 employees just making sandwiches and sent another one to go mix up more spicy mayo.

I have had the following different varieties of the spicy chicken sandwich since Early July when this thread started:

Regular
No Pickles (not a big pickle fan in general)
With Red Beans
With Red Beans and a little of Mardi Gras Mustard today

The Spicy Sandwich with Red Beans and a little Mardi Gras Mustard is my favorite but I do love their Mardi Gras Mustard in general

I was told by a worker preparing it that what makes it a spicy sandwich is the spicy mayo, now could they be wrong sure but regardless.

Its aplain arse chicken breast with a sauce to make it spicy. I'd rather a spicy chicken breast.

Oo well, that's life.

Never was one to follow the sheep with the cool new trends. Always just did what I liked.

If you like the popeyes sandwich better, great.

I on the other hand dont.

The cat is out of the bag folks. Expect popeyes to be slammed for a while.

The Popeyes Chicken Sandwich Is Here to Save America - The New Yorker


quote:

the Popeyes chicken sandwich has ascended to the pantheon in record time, not because of a catchy ad campaign or an irresistible pricing scheme but because it is, if Twitter, Instagram, and uncountable blog posts and off-the-cuff reviews are to be believed, the best goddam chicken sandwich in the world. For the past few days, my social-media feeds—which, most of the time, read like bleak, polyphonic litanies of the falling-apart world—have been overwhelmed instead by discourse about the sandwich. I’ve watched friends and strangers go through the stages of enlightenment: skepticism, curiosity, anticipation, capitulation, ecstasy.


quote:

“The chicken is perfectly fried! The breading isn’t falling off. You get crunch in every bite!” The bun is “a buttery cushion”; the sauce “takes it over the top. Is it healthy? NO! But dammit don’t it taste good. It’s truly a gift from the heavens.”


quote:

Both sandwiches stick the landing on the most important element of a fast-food sandwich: the fusion of its distinct components into an ineffable, irresistible gestalt. The salt, the fat, the sharpness, the softness—together, they’re what flavor scientists might describe as “high amplitude,” a combination so intense, and so perfectly balanced, that they meld into one another to form a new, entirely coherent whole.

I'm at the one in Oxnard right now. This is easily the busiest I've ever seen this place. Kid at the counter is doing a good job. Telling us right away it's a 15 minute wait. Dining room is full of people waiting for their sandwiches.

I feel bad for anyone on a timed lunch break who is going to Popeyes for the first time.

The phone is also ringing off the hook. Damn.

Competition is a good thing. Maybe CFA will counter with a new one.

You can directly thank the viral twitter sandwich war of 2019. They probably weren’t prepared for the rush of people coming to get the sandwich

Tried it today myself. Wasn't that impressed.

The spicy sandwich is just a plain fried breast with spicy mayo, what kind of shite is that?

I dont like mayo, so no spicy for me.

It was good but Chick Fil A is still much better.

their advantages are a larger piece of chicken and possibly a cheaper price but I dont recall the price of a Chick Fil A sandwich
