Do you like fried chicken? Who doesn’t, right? Since everyone loves fried chicken, it should be no surprise that the place with the best fried chicken in Portland, Oregon sells out of it every day. Meet Jojo. Jojo is a food truck in southeast Portland that sells the most incredible fried chicken! Read on to learn more.
Look at this cute food truck! It looks so simple, but inside, some of the best fried chicken that you've ever had is being made.
The Mr. Onion Fried Chicken Sandwich is for onion lovers as it has two kinds of onions plus shallots on it, plus chives, plus pickles, plus Tillamook cheddar, plus Alabama white mustard sauce. There's also a Fried Chicken Melt on the menu with cheddar and American cheeses, coleslaw, ranch, and hot sauce.
All the chicken sandwiches are made with fried chicken thighs.
Where did Jojo get its name? From the potatoes, of course. You should get them as a side. They're thick potatoes fried to a crisp and tossed with Jojo's house spice blend. You can get them plain or loaded with various toppings like cheese or onions or coleslaw or other tasty things.
No matter what you order at Jojo, you're going to be satisfied. It's no wonder this place is so popular and it's no surprise that it sells out every day.
Jojo started as just this food truck, but the food is so popular and tasty that it has expanded and grown into a brick-and-mortar location as well! The food truck, as we mentioned, is in southeast Portland, but the restaurant is at 902 NW 13th Avenue. Why not visit both? You’re sure to have an excellent meal no matter which location you choose. Enjoy!
