10 pc Dave's Bites w/ Fries
Ten Nashville-style white-meat chicken bites at any of seven heat levels, plus a side of seasoned crinkle-cut fries, bread, pickles, and Dave's Sauce. The complete Dave's Bites meal β snackable chicken and a proper side in one box.
About the 10 pc Dave's Bites w/ Fries
The 10 pc Dave's Bites w/ Fries turns the popular Bites snack into a full meal by adding a generous side of Dave's seasoned crinkle-cut fries. You still get ten poppable, white-meat chicken bites fried Nashville-style at your chosen heat level, plus the traditional bread and pickles and a side of Dave's Sauce for dipping β now rounded out with the crispy, salty fries that make it a satisfying lunch or dinner on their own.
Bundling the fries into the order is the smarter value play: you get the side at a lower effective price than ordering it separately, and the neutral, salty fries do double duty as a heat buffer. Alternating a hot bite with a fry resets your palate and keeps the spice from stacking too fast β which is exactly why this is the most popular way to order the Bites at Medium and above.
What's Included the 10 pc Dave's Bites w/ Fries
10 White-Meat Chicken Bites
Ten bite-sized pieces of white-meat chicken breast, buttermilk-marinated, seasoned-flour-breaded, and fried to a golden crunch, then tossed in the Nashville spice rub at your chosen heat level.
Seasoned Crinkle-Cut Fries
A side of Dave's signature crinkle-cut fries β crisp on the outside, fluffy inside, and dusted with seasoning. Their ridged shape holds Dave's Sauce and cheese sauce especially well.
Slices of Bread
Classic white bread served underneath the bites in true Nashville tradition. It absorbs spice oil and works as a built-in cool-down between hotter bites.
Dill Pickles
Crunchy, briny pickle slices that add acid contrast, cut the richness of the fried chicken, and reset the palate between bites.
Dave's Sauce
The signature creamy dipping sauce on the side β perfect for both the bites and the fries. Its dairy richness buffers the spice and ties the whole meal together.
