Cleveland has no shortage of claims to fame, but Vic Searcy's Chicken Sandwich stands out even in a city of bests.
With locations in University Heights, Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse and Cleveland Browns Stadium, you'd think Sauce the City has been around for decades. On the contrary, Chef Vic launched (almost by accident) in 2018 when he won a location in the Ohio City Gallery. At the time, Searcy was earning advanced degrees in organizational psychology and directing social services activities for a rehabilitation center. But his passion for cooking drove his destiny and the signature hot sauces he was concocting at Kent State sealed his fate.
Only five short years from launch, Chef Vic now has many claims to fame of his own, from selling 2,500 hot chicken sandwiches to MGK for peckish Ohio City residents to feeding thousands of hungry Cleveland sports fans at three stadium locations. It's no wonder Sauce the City was voted Ohio's #1 Chicken Sandwich.
On this episode of Small Business, Big Conversations, we're talking to Chef Vic Searcy of Sauce the City.
