    Another great shootout you two :-) The super crunch of the Gus's chicken had me guessing you'd pick that one, but I'm always on the edge of my seat until the big reveal! Those fried green tomatoes looked delicious as well. Thanks for a great episode. Stay healthy!

    I would've timed my chewing of Gus' fried chicken to the rhythm of the exercise class. 0:53 menu...yes, peanut oil is the most delicious way to fry chicken, turkey, potato chips, etc. I appreciate the unpretentiousness of Gus' atmosphere, the chipped walls, cement floor, and that old school sign at 0:34. That sign would go for $$$$ on American Pickers.

    Great video you 2. I love the concept of competing foods against each other. We know you aren't professionals, and that is perfect, because most of us watching are not professional eaters either. We actually have Gus's in KC. The chicken is a little spicy for my taste, but was cooked to perfection. I can't remember if they offered a mild or not.

    I could tell within the first 20 seconds of the video this was recorded in Birmingham (because the only Gus's location and only Hattie B's location in Alabama are both in Birmingham). My brother attending graduate school a little more than 2 hours from Birmingham thinks Eugene's Hot Chicken is even better than Hattie B's.
    It isn't quite a fair comparison between Gus's Fried Chicken and Hattie B's because Gus's has a Cajun spicy taste while Hattie B's is a Nashville hot chicken place. The latter has a different, hotter spice profile than Gus's. Both are excellent though; Gus's is probably a little more moist and tender.
    P.S. Ironically the first time I ever had Nashville hot chicken was at the Hattie B's in Birmingham!
