Nashville Heat Meets Spiedie Street: A Bold BBQ Take on a New York Classic

Nashville Hot Chicken Spiedies

The spiedie is a humble sandwich with deep roots in Binghamton, New York—a working-class favorite brought over by Italian immigrants and made famous through backyard grills and family-owned shops. Traditionally, cubes of chicken, pork, or lamb are marinated in a tangy, herb-heavy mix of olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and Italian spices, then grilled and served on soft Italian bread. No sauce. No gimmicks. Just real-deal flavor.

This version honors that classic blueprint but turns up the volume with Revolution Barbecue’s Nashville Hot Chicken Rub. We dial back the lemon, swap in red wine vinegar for rounder acidity, and lean into earthy herbs like thyme and oregano. The result? Bright, smoky heat layered over char-grilled chicken—still soaked into crusty bread like the original, but with Southern fire in every bite.
