If you want good Southern Fried Chicken, you have to go back - use lard or crisco and buttermilk, Salt, Black Pepper in the breading.

My mom dipped the chicken pieces in eggs, then rolled them in a flour/salt/pepper mix. Fried them in crisco oil in an electric skillet. It's the one meal I request when I visit.

My secret is to let someone who knows what they're doing make it and I just eat it.

Raise it fresh on broiler mash, then, when you want to cook, heat up a pot, go out and grab one, take a sharp knife and... Well, you get the point. Makes for delicious, flavorfull meat.

Your batter should be buttermilk , then you should double dip the chicken first in the buttermilk batter then in the flour mix and repeat the process. I find that work best. As far as frying your chicken make sure the oil is hot , test by drop a small piece of bread in the oil, it should fry instantly The chicken should about half way in the oil this will seal in the juices. Brown the chicken and turn over and brown the other side. My family love my fried chicken!!!!!

I always boil my chicken before I do anything with it. It precooks it and gets all the nasty blood out of it.

Basic fried chicken: 1. soak chicken pieces overnight in salt water (very important) 2. heat peanut oil in cast iron skillet until hard frying temperature (oil should be about half the way up the sides of the skillet) 3. dip chicken in buttermilk/egg mixture, roll in flour mixture (flour, seasoned salt, fresh cracked black pepper), dip back in the buttermilk/egg mixture, and final dip in flour. 4. fry about 7-8 mins on one side with lid on, and flip pieces for final five mins (no lid at the end). 5. drain on brown paper bag...no paper towels. |

Though I am pretty sure they used lard with bacon drippings instead of peanut oil |
