Tennessee Favorite Entrees


Return to Entrees index
↠ Nashville Hot Chicken:
Description:  Nashville Hot Chicken is a fiery Tennessee-born specialty featuring crispy, buttermilk-battered fried chicken—typically breast or thigh—smothered in a cayenne-infused lard or oil paste. Served traditionally atop white bread with pickles, this dish balances intense heat with a savory crunch, often served as a sandwich.

↠ Memphis Pulled Pork:
Description:  Memphis-style pulled pork is a tender, hickory-smoked pork shoulder seasoned with a bold dry rub, often featuring paprika, garlic, and brown sugar. It is served pulled or chopped, traditionally topped with tangy vinegar coleslaw on a soft bun, allowing the meat's flavor to dominate over a light, side-served sauce.

↠ Tennessee Pride Sausage and Rice Casserole:
Description:  Tennessee Pride Sausage and Rice Casserole is a savory, comfort-food entree combining browned, seasoned pork sausage with rice, creamy soup (celery or cheddar), and melted cheese. Often featuring aromatics like onion, garlic, and bell pepper, this hearty, baked one-pan dish offers a savory, creamy, and filling meal.

↠ Tennessee Meatloaf:
Description:  Tennessee Meatloaf is a cozy, Southern-style comfort food, often characterized by a very moist texture, a tangy-sweet tomato-based sauce (or glaze), and a nostalgic, homemade taste. It typically features ground beef mixed with breadcrumbs, onions, eggs, and seasonings, often cooked in a sauce made from tomato sauce, cider vinegar, and brown sugar.

↠ Fried Catfish:
Description:  Southern-style fried catfish features mild, flaky white fillets, typically soaked in buttermilk, dredged in a seasoned cornmeal blend, and deep-fried to a crisp, golden-brown finish. This savory, tender dish is often served hot with hush puppies, creamy coleslaw, lemon wedges, and tartar sauce.
