Franchise owners Christian and Melissa Couch will open their first Houston TC Hot Chicken on Sunday, September 1, from 12 pm – 3 pm.

To commemorate this special event, attendees can indulge in complimentary Original Hot Chicken Sandwiches and beverages and enjoy a display of unique supercars. Guests can also test the limits with HHC’s “Houston, We Have A Problem” (HWHAP) Spice Challenge Contest*, challenging guests to finish three HWHAP (HHC’s spiciest level) tenders and endure a three-minute cool down (no liquid for three minutes) for a chance to win $1,000!

“We cannot wait to bring our distinct flavors and organic, quality chicken to San Diego,” Christian & Melissa Couch, the owner of HHC’s San Diego franchise, said in a statement. “We instantly fell in love with the food, the brand, and the vibe, and we knew San Diego would, too. It’s been an exciting journey to bring HHC to one of our favorite cities in the world.”

Founded by serial entrepreneur and pro race car driver Edmond Barseghian, Houston TX Hot Chicken always brings the heat. HHC promises high-quality, antibiotic-free, and hormone-free hot chicken to ensure that each guest can get the best experience with multiple delicious offerings—such as its House Favorite, Cheesy Hot Chicken Sandwich, Texas Caesar Salad, Fusion Fries, Tenders with Slaw, and more. Guests can also choose a range of spice levels, from No Spice to Mild to Houston We Have a Problem*.

This is just the beginning for the company, which now has 20 locations across the U.S., including two others in California. The company tells Eater San Diego that it’s planning to open at least two additional outposts in San Diego in 2025, with the goal of continued expansion across the region. Christian Couch tells What Now San Diego that he and Melissa will be the franchise owners of these two new locations. They target East County and the South Bay/ Eastlake areas, but nothing is 100% certain. First, the couple will focus on getting their first location open.

Operating hours for the San Diego location are from 10:30 am to 10 pm Sunday through Thursday and 10:30 am to 2:00 am Friday and Saturday.

*NOTE: waivers are required for participants on HWHAP spice.

Note: The article previously mentioned that the company’s grand opening was set for August 244. Unfortunately, it has been pushed back to September 2024.
