I just ate some KFC, and boy do I love it...that salty, greasy skin...the chewy biscuits, the somehow delicious mac and cheese and mashed potatoes...ate the fuck out of that chicken.

But it got me thinking, KFC is the only fried chicken place I've ever eaten from in my life, so for you more experienced fried chicken fast food eaters...how does Popeyes compare to KFC? Churches? And I don't just mean which is better, but how is the chicken different in terms of taste ??

>KFC thread

Serious question from a naïve Australian who occasionally likes to have fun with stereotypes, but I've always wondered about this one:

Is there any real truth to the stereotype about black people and KFC?

Or is it a forced marketing meme to generate free product placement on the internet?

We don't have many black people here and KFC is generally associated with morbidly obese poor people.

>> No.6032754

>>6032746
It has less to do with KFC and more to do with fried chicken in general, which, yes is popular among blacks. Southern cooking in general is popular with blacks.

>> No.6032755

>>6032746
No, its slightly true. They seem to really enjoy KFC, i don't know why though.

>> No.6032759

>>6032746
It's a real thing. But in many places in the US there aren't many black people around, so you wouldn't necessarily notice. But I've been in a few where I was literally the only white person.

>> No.6032761

Church's has the best biscuits but their fried chicken is bland.

>> No.6032768

>>6032746
Yes, it's true.
I think it depends on what area of the US you live in. Where I grew up, KFC was promoted as just for everyone, mostly whites. Where I live now, every KFC commercial is directed straight at black people. Same for McDonalds. They obviously look at your area's demographics. The immediate area Iive in doesn't have a ton of black people, but the wider, regional area there are large areas of them.

I dont know about you but out of what you named only popeyes is better than KFC.

Chicken express and raisin' canes opened up in my area over the last few years and they were underwhelming and expensive, which is a shame because I was excited for both after hearing how amazing they are. Maybe i'm just lucky that my KFC has the buffet still and does the chicken properly, granted i'll go to popeyes when they have the $1.99 2 piece deal.

Afterwards you have to deal with any oil splatter, cleaning multiple plates/bowls used in the dredging process, wash off the oil from whatever vessel you were using, and hope to god you didn't spill any of that oil that you were transferring to the mason jars.

No need to link.

Dip chicken in an eggwash, milk, or a milk+eggwash, then dip the chicken in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper (paprika and chili powder, other herbs and spices if you so desire), then dip it back in the eggwash, milk, or eggwash+milk, then dip it back in the flour mixture. Now put it in the hot oil. Wait about 5 minutes, then pull it out.

Clearly no one posting is from California or Florida. By far the best fried chicken I have ever had while traveling was from a place called Pollo Campero. Second would be Popeyes and then third is Pollo Loco. Bojangles is lukewarm garbage (Although their hashbrowns were awesome) and Zaxby's serves the dryest turds I have ever seen referred to as chicken.

Fried chicken is something I choose to be lazy about. I dont make it nor enjoy it enough to justify making it myself. its rare in that respect
