Sweet Baby Jesus.

Just stopped by the Popeyes on Carrollton in NOLA bc the wife wanted some red beans. Having failed to get a sandwich in two previous attempts at midday (Gentilly and Metairie), I figured they’d be out. Also, I hate the Carrollton Popeyes...

Regardless, they weren’t out.

It’s a great fricking sandwich.

I was hoping it would be spicier, but it's pretty damn great. The texture is perfect. It does all the little things well. Even the bun is excellent.


Even the pickles are legit.

Everything is perfect.

It felt like a dream. I almost moved there because of that Popeyes experience.

made sure to eat a few pieces of just the chicken today. It's definitely spicy chicken. Not sure why the difference.



The chicken isn’t spicy

The Original is just blue plate mayo

The Spicy is blue plate mayo mixed with the same “spicy” spice that’s used to marinate spicy chicken

If ya don’t think it’s spicy then your local Popeyes is messing up the ratio mix when making the spicy mayo

If you want to up the spice I say go with the Red Hot Honey Sauce

My kids love this sauce. I told them I could make it. So, I read all the ingredients pulled out my stash and whipped up my copy/ version of this sauce.

Well, blind taste test could not tell the difference between Popeye’s Brand and mine. Only difference was the consistency. I did not have food starch-modified which would have given me the consistency. Nor did I have the next 2 ingredients SB & PS which is okay because they are preservatives. Real easy to make.

I'm considering Chik-Fil-A for lunch. Is this sandwich actually better?

ETA: I'm gonna pick one up. Will report back.

Yes, it’s great. CFA will always be GOAT because of their customer service and cleanliness, but this chicken sandwich is manna from above.

Just had it in prairieville very good the chicken was very juicy and crunchy. My only negative is the chicken patty may be just a little to thick in some places. Best chicken sandwich I've ever had from fast food place.

I had it on Sunday and its definitely better than Chick Fil A. Just wish it had a bit more of the spicy mayo for some extra kick.
