This is a copycat recipe for KFC Georgia Gold Chicken -- fried chicken pieces coated in a tangy, honey mustard sauce.

KFC introduced its own "Extra Crispy Chicken" in 1972.

It was taken away, along with the BBQ flavor, while Nashville Hot stayed. Many places have a Nashville Hot flavor but nobody has anything like Georgia Gold. It was a symphony for the taste buds.

KFC debuted Nashville Hot Chicken and Waffles in 2019, but Nashville Hot Chicken in general was eventually discontinued, though the chain continued to sell Nashville Hot Sauce afterward. The latter was discontinued in 2023 along with several other items.

Popcorn chicken, Kentucky fried chicken wings, Nashville hot sauce, strawberry lemonade, and chocolate chip cookies were dropped from KFC menus across the country starting in November. In an interview with USA Today, KFC US director Brittany Wilson said the changes should make ordering easier for customers.

Legend has it, this fiery blend is the work of a scorned Nashville woman whose fried chicken loving partner, Thornton Prince, had a habit of coming home late with a little more than sweat around his collar.
