Petco Park’s hottest food item last year? The Hot Hen. It’s got everything. Fresno chile slaw. Fuego Sauce. And of course chicken, fried crispy and served on a brioche bun. This year, they’ve added a second outpost in the Mercado.

Concessions king Delaware North is dipping its beak into the spicy friend chicken sandwich trend, bringing the new addition San Diego’s Finest Hot Chicken to the San Diego Padres stadium. If you are a heatseaker, or burned out on Friar Franks, it’s worth a visit.
