Bringing the Heat with Nashville Hot**
Before "Nashville Hot" became a staple on menus nationwide, KFC helped bring the fiery Southern flavor to the masses in 2016, becoming the first quick-service restaurant to offer it coast to coast. Now, as 65% of Americans say they're spicy food fans, the cult classic flavor is having a major moment.

Available on Extra Crispy® fried chicken, Tenders and the KFC Chicken Sandwich, Nashville Hot features a bold blend of smoky, spicy and slightly sweet heat layered over KFC's iconic crispy fried chicken. It's craveable, punchy and unapologetically bold, made for fans who want flavor that hits.

Whether you're rediscovering a favorite or trying it for the first time, Nashville Hot joins 20 Wings for $20 to deliver bold flavor and serious value for every game-time gathering this season.
