The Hot Wing King

The Hot Wing King

It’s time for the annual “Hot Wang Festival” in Memphis, Tennessee, and Cordell Crutchfield is spicing up the competition with wings worthy of a crown! With his partner Dwayne and their crew, The New Wing Order, Cordell is marinating magic and firing up his frying pan for the win. When Dwayne takes in his troubled nephew, things start to simmer over. Suddenly, there's more at stake than just the trophy. Will Cordell keep it all together? 2021 PULITZER PRIZE WINNER.
