An annual chicken event that’s been a local tradition for decades is about to “blast” off later this month.
And that will make stomachs happy, and so, too, members of the Serbian Men’s Club.
Their highly anticipated “chicken blasts” held at the Serbian Picnic Grounds of Holy Resurrection Serbian Orthodox Church begin on May 26 and will continue each Wednesday through the end of August.
Orders for the hearth-cooked, slow-roasted poultry may be called in from 6 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. to 304-748-9866 the day of the sales, but volunteer Jon Greiner offers a word of caution here, noting that last year, the chickens were gone in the first hour.
