Show Notes
Harold’s is more than a chicken spot — it’s a Chicago institution. There are stories of NBA MVP Derrick Rose getting bottles of their famous mild sauce brought to his home. It’s made a number of TV cameos. It’s even been name-dropped by a certain former U.S. president. But somehow, even with dozens of franchise locations, it’s been able to maintain a community feel and remains a must-try for anyone coming to the city. Earlier this year, Shakeia Taylor wrote about Harold’s legacy for the Eater. She and journalist Arionne Nettles talked with host Jacoby Cochran about the history of the iconic chicken joint, their orders, and where the best (and worst) locations are. Plus, we hear from a former Harold’s franchise owner.
