Tips for Hosting the Perfect Ezell’s Feast


1. Ordering for Your Crowd


   •   Plan for 2–3 pieces of chicken per guest and adjust sides based on the number of attendees.

   •   Call ahead to confirm large orders, ensuring everything is freshly prepared and ready when you need it.


2. Hot-Holding & Cold-Holding


   •   To keep chicken warm, set your oven to 200°F, wrap the chicken loosely in foil, and place it on a baking sheet.

   •   Cold sides like coleslaw should be kept chilled in the fridge until ready to serve.


3. Unboxing Your Feast


   •   Open containers immediately to let steam escape, preserving the crispiness of fried items like chicken and fries.

   •   Transfer items to serving platters for a polished, party-ready presentation.


4. Beverage Pairing


Pair the feast with lemonade or sweet tea for a true Southern touch.
