Kenny Rogers: Effin' Hot Gravy Challenge

Visited Kenny Rogers for another round of their Chipotle Fire Chicken and discovered their new #EffinHotGravy challenge!



A few weeks ago, I attended the launch of the Chipotle Fire Chicken at Kenny Rogers, Ayala Malls the 30th. It's their classic premium roast, leveled up with a special chipotle flavor! It has just the right amount of spice to it, which I really enjoyed. Now, Kenny's is bringing us a new challenge with even more heat - the Effin' Hot Gravy! It's a challenge fit for those who think the Chipotle Fire Chicken isn't hot enough or daredevils who are simply craving for more heat in their meal. Take note - to participate in the challenge, one has to ask the store staff for the #EffinHotGravy and sign a waiver! Yes, it's that spicy!

That afternoon, we were given a task. Pick two cards from a deck - the first card will unveil how many bites of chicken with the #EffinHotGravy gravy you'd have to take and the second card indicates how many spoonfuls of froyo you can eat afterwards to cool off all that heat!

I'm glad I brought my mom as my date to the event! She really loves spicy food, so I knew she was going to enjoy doing the challenge! In the end, she had to do twice as many bites of chicken and gravy than I did with just half the froyo portions!

She didn't find it spicy at all! In fact, she loved the gravy so much, she continued eating it even when they gave us the regular Chipotle Fire Chicken gravy AND even mixed it in her mashed potato! Her tolerance for spicy food is definitely a couple of notches higher than mine because I immediately gave up on it after completing the challenge!

The Chipotle Fire Chicken is available in solo plate deals for just Php 245.00. For this price, you get one quarter chicken, two side dishes (my favorites are the Tex Mex Macaroni and Sour Cream & Chives Potatoes), one corn muffin, and one serving of java rice.

If you think you can take more heat, I dare you to ask for the Effin' Hot Gravy! Again, this doesn't automatically come with your order, you have to ask for it (and again, sign a waiver!)

Cool down the Chipotle heat by adding Php 25.00 for one regular-sized plain froyo to your Chipotle Fire Chicken meal until March 15, 2018!
