A Texan Tradition: Church’s Texas Chicken Takes Flight
Church’s Texas Chicken, a well-known name in the fried chicken game, boasts a rich history dating back to 1952. Founded in San Antonio, Texas by George W. Church, the restaurant quickly gained a loyal following for its unique flavor profile. Church’s didn’t follow the typical fried chicken recipe. Instead, they used a special seasoning blend with a hint of black pepper, creating a flavor that was both crispy and flavorful.
Over the years, Church’s Texas Chicken expanded across the United States, staying true to its Texan roots and commitment to delicious, high-quality fried chicken. Today, Church’s is a favorite for families and friends looking for a satisfying and flavorful meal.

The inspiration for this fiery sauce came from the Hulu series “Superhot: The Spicy World of Pepper People.” This show dives into the world of chili peppers and the people who grow and love them. Church’s partnered with some of the show’s stars, experienced pepper growers Bobby McFadden and Aurea de Guzman, to develop a hot sauce that perfectly complements their famous chicken.
