Binghamton NY Chicken Spiedies

Spiedies (pronounced “speedys”) are regionally FAMOUS in Binghamton NY, we even have an entire festival around them (that’s where I took my 1st hot air balloon ride!). It’s believed that these were brought over in the early 1920’s by Italians who settled in the Binghamton area. Since then, every BBQ, every baseball game, and every outdoor event has Spiedies. If you travel one or two towns away from Binghamton, people will not know what Spiedies are. It’s literally a very regional thing and I LOVE THEM! And NO, it's not just “marinated cubed meat”, trust me.
