Now Nashville is nestled in the southern part of Broncos Country and the regional food has a distinct flair. One specialty dish that the city is known for, is Nashville Hot Chicken. This is made from a serving of wing, thigh or breast that has been marinated in buttermilk, heavily spiced, breaded and pan-fried. The recipe is there in the link if you desire it.

Yes fried chicken is a southern favorite, stereotypically or not, but this weeks theme is all about the beef. Something the Broncos will need to bring in order to best the Titans. So I have a meat and potato ensemble to share with you grill masters out there in Bronco Country that will make your Tailgate a success.
