Move over, KFC—China’s Dezhou Braised Chicken is sizzling its way into foodie hearts with 500+ years of flavor-packed history! This iconic dish from Shandong Province has evolved from a humble train-station snack to a culinary treasure blending tradition and tech. Here’s why it’s going viral:
From Rails to Riches
Born along the Beijing-Shanghai railway in 1912, Dezhou Braised Chicken became the OG travel snack. Imagine crispy, honey-glazed chicken slow-cooked in spices like cinnamon and aniseed—so tender it falls off the bone. Forget fried; this is simmered perfection!
Smart Farming Meets Foodie Culture
No more \"blind box\" surprises! Dezhou now uses AI and IoT to monitor chicken health, ensuring every bite is fresh. Vacuum-packed for your convenience, it’s gone from lotus-leaf wraps to highway rest stops and high-speed trains. Talk about a glow-up!
Can It Beat the KFC Craze?
Despite its rep, young folks still flock to fast food. \"Converting brand love into sales is key,\" says Shandong trade director Zang Renfeng. But with a Chicken Culture Museum (yes, that’s real ) and tech upgrades, Dezhou’s dish is fighting for Gen Z’s takeout carts.
