Lane’s Nashville Hot Seasoning

Lane’s Big Dill Pickle Brine

4 tbsp softened butter

2 tbsp Hot Honey

1 pack of Kings Hawaiian Rolls

Fried Crispy Onions (Optional)

Place in fridge for 6 - 8 hours, remove, drain, and pat dry
Slider instructions
We are using the spatchcock method (feel free to cook the chicken how you like it) Remove the backbone with kitchen sheers and flatten the chicken, legs pointed in. Season all sides of the chicken and under the skin with Lane’s Nashville Hot seasoning. Smoke/grill at 350 for around 40 - 1 hr (aim for the internal temperature being 165 in the breast) - keep grill/smoker/oven on
Remove and rest - Lane’s How to Spatchcock Chicken Article
Once rested pull chicken, trash bones, and place in a bowl. Drizzle with Hot honey and season again with Nashville Hot seasoning and mix.
Mix the softened butter, 2 tbsp hot honey, and 2 tbsp Nashville hot - should be a paste like consistency.
Keeping the pack of Hawaiian rolls together - slice longways and place in a foil tray. Add a layer of pickles, layer of chicken, layer of fried crispy onions, and spread hot honey butter spread on the inside of the top roll layer.
(Optional) I like to drizzle the top of the buns with hot honey and a sprinkle of Nashville hot seasoning.
Place tray on the grill/oven/smoker for another 6-8 minutes just to warm everything up, crisp the top of the sliders, and melt the hot honey butter. Remove and enjoy!

Thank you Jason.

Hey Steve, we would recommend not leaving the bird in the brine any longer than 24 hours.

What is the longest I can keep the bird in the brine?

Man, I would give this recipe 10 stars if I could! Perfect flavor and heat! Nashville Hot is one of my favs anyway but the pickle brine gave the chicken that extra flavor. They tasted soooo good!
