Seriously, who comes up with these makeshift holidays? Granted, a day named after one of my favorite foods is appealing, but unnecessary.  There is no knowledge of when the day started or why; it’s just one of those holidays that’s just there, like all of the other food ‘holidays’. Oh well, if you can’t beat them, join them.

So where can you get some really good fried chicken around Collierville? Well, if you want to go with a national chain, then “Popeyes” is always a good bet. But if you want a local favorite, try Uncle Lou’s, Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken, or Jack Pirtle’s. They all have really good chicken, but I  hear that Gus’s is the best. It has to be called ‘world famous‘ for a reason, right?

Only you can be the judge, however. So Bailey Creek, I’d love to have your opinion; where can we find the best fried chicken in the Collierville/Memphis area?

Directions to Gus’s from Bailey Creek (Closest)
