Event Highlight: The Master of Chicken

The Master of Chicken is back at Meadow Neighborhood Eatery for 2026.

Think you know a great fried chicken sandwich? The Master of Chicken 2026 is here to put your skills to the test — in the most delicious way possible.

This spring, San Antonio’s crispiest, juiciest, most over-the-top chicken sandwiches will take center stage as The Master of Chicken returns for another unforgettable afternoon of fierce flavor and friendly competition. Expect golden-fried perfection, bold toppings, big bites, and serious bragging rights on the line.

Meadow Neighborhood Eatery chef-owner PJ Edwards will be defending his Master of Chicken title.

The party goes down once again at Meadow at The Alley on Bitters, the city’s go-to open-air spot for food, fun, and patio vibes. With music in the air, drinks flowing, vendors popping up, and the unmistakable smell of sizzling chicken all around… this is not just a tasting event — it’s a full-blown chicken sandwich celebration.

Hosted by Meadow Neighborhood Eatery, chef-owner PJ Edwards will be defending his Master of Chicken title, serving up fried yardbird goodness and setting the tone for a day that’s equal parts culinary showdown and springtime festival. 

The full chef line-up will be announced soon, but tickets are limited, so purchase yours here and bring your appetite, as we get ready to crown the next The Master of Chicken.
