UK hot chicken brand Sides, founded by YouTube sensations The Sidemen, storms to victory at high stakes Fried Chicken Competition, cementing its place among the UK’s fried chicken elite.
London Jerk brought the heat and took the title, wowing judges to win the Technical Platter category.
The trophy-winning spread packed in a burger, tenders, wings, slaw and gravy, all finished with award-winning London Jerk spice and buttermilk ranch.
Aaron Moore-Saxon, Managing Director of Sides, said: “London Jerk is where bold meets British. This win proves big flavour and top-quality chicken belong together.
“We’re all about creating food that feels fresh, culturally connected and built on quality. This award shows we’re raising the bar in the UK fast-casual scene.”
