Three lines of descent. Two shacks for chickens. One surefire way to go wrong.

For a century, Chicken Mimi's and Chicken Frannie's in small Merinac, Kansas, have been competing to offer the best fried chicken in the state. Their respective proprietors, the Moores and the Pogociellos, have been embroiled in a legendary dispute for an equally long time. Amanda Moore, a 35-year-old widow who worked for her mother at Mimi's before scandalously marrying Frank Pogociello and switching sides to work at Frannie's, is the one who feels the effects the most. Amanda sends an SOS to Food Wars, the reality TV restaurant competition where the winner will receive $100,000, since she is sick of being in the middle. However, she throws both families into the fire instead of the frying pan in the process.

Mae Moore, Amanda's sister and an organizational whiz in Brooklyn, is the last person who wants to return home to Kansas. However, as her career collapses, Food Wars presents her with an opportunity to regain prominence. Even if doing so puts Mae up against Amanda and Frannie, Mae is confident she can make the fading Mimi's seem nice. A rapacious producer fuels the fires, causing their amicable rivalry to swiftly devolve into a game of chicken. However, the sisters are forced to decide whether to battle for their heritage or against one other as family secrets are revealed to the world.
