PROFILE
Nashville-style hot chicken has become a staple in Southern cooking — a not-so-new way of amending fried chicken that has garnered mass appeal. It’s widely believed hot chicken originated at Prince’s Hot Chicken in Nashville when owner Thornton Prince’s girlfriend, enraged after his late-night dalliances, spiked his fried chicken with an overloaded amount of cayenne pepper. Prince, much to the girlfriend’s dismay, loved the dish, and the rest is history.
“Blake’s personality shines through the house, with the feeling of refinement and timeless elegance, along with a twist of the unexpected,” said Lonnia Brooks of Lonnia Brooks Design & Events, a longtime friend and the home’s designer. “Ron’s sense of humor and his love for cooking and grilling really show out when you see the gallery wall and the outdoor kitchen. Blending their two personalities together, you get magic — and the most beautiful and relaxing home for entertaining family and friends.”
For Lane Crider, our local water isn’t just a resource, it’s personal. Born and raised in Northwest Arkansas, Lane’s roots run as deep as the water table that feeds the region. “It’s a tight circle that I find myself in,” he said with a smile. “My dad’s family is from Greenland. My mom’s family is from West Fork. My grandfather’s farm backed up to the river. Water was always a part of my life.”
