Nashville Hot Chicken continues to dominate the food seen and now I Heart Mac & Cheese is the latest brand to jump aboard the trend with two new products: The Nashville Hottie and The Nashville Hottie Bowl.
I Heart Mac and Cheese recently launched its 'Hot Grilled Summer Campaign,' which features two takes on Nashville Hot Chicken. The first of the new dishes is The Nashville Hottie, which takes on the chain's classic grilled sandwiches and stuffs it with Nashville hot chicken and pickles. The whole thing is then drizzled with a spicy Nashville hot sauce and the chain's signature cheese sauce, before it's topped with a parmesan-crusted bread. On the other hand, The Nashville Hottie Bowl combines creamy mac and cheese with spicy Nashville chicken pieces, Nashville hot sauce, cheese sauce, and crunchy pickles.
