I tried it last night. Luckily, I had all the ingredients on hand including buttermilk. I used only chicken legs (drumsticks) and let them marinate for nearly 5 hours. Then took them out of the refrigerator for an hour before making the batter and cooking. All I can say is WOW! This is the BEST tasting fried chicken I have ever had. I should have used a little more buttermilk in the batter because there was a bit too much breading for my liking, but it was definitely crispy and crunchy as Chef Jean-Pierre says. I would never have thought to use curry powder, but it really does enhance the flavor and the chicken does not taste like curry. I did have a few pieces left over and froze them. Today I took out one piece, didn't even defrost it, put it in the oven for about 25 minutes, and it came out perfectly, almost just as good as when I first made it. So, yes - you can make this in advance and freeze it for future meals. Very sorry KFC, but Chef Jean-Pierre's recipe just cost you one customer. Another masterpiece from Chef Jean-Pierre.

Yep the only thing I do differently from his is I put a little bit of pickle juice in the brine as well everything else is spot on I might add more seasonings depending on who's eating at the house though, I would recommend using white pepper in your flower as well as black pepper black for the color white for the taste

Try a thrift store, they might have it. I did not get my mothers meat mincer, but later by accident found it in a thrift store - I believe a chinese handkranked product. That is the main reason I shop at thrift stores: They at times have what is otherwise not available - and if you make a bad purchase? The price is so low, that you can throw it away.

My Mom made the best fried chicken. Tasty, crunchy, the whole bit. I followed her around the kitchen to see what prep she did. She only used salt, pepper, paprika, and flour in a paper bag. She tossed the pieces of chicken in the bag gave it a few shakes and that was it. She had a special pan she filled with Crisco oil. She fried the chicken and kept the done pieces in the oven. I went home copied it..nada. Dull, but edible with some chutney or BBQ sauce. My sister attempted it and got the result. Dull. After many attempts we came to the conclusion it had to be that pan!!

@@tspidey007 Yes this is the very best your going to find. The orignal chicken fryer is L10CF3 They have a smaller one to that could save you more moeny in the long run on oil when cooking smaller meals. Lodge is cheap to build out a nice collection, especially with all their sales. My favoroite skillet they have is L8SKULL Its gorgeous. When filtering out the oil theres a trick with cornstarch or getting a cheap stainless steel bacon grease container off amazon makes this alot easier.

Veterans Day was my Mom's favorite day. Not the commemorations, but Nov 11 1918. She said it was magic. People were outside in the street shouting, crying, hugging, dancing...She was three years old. That was out last conversation as I talked with her long distance since I knew I wouldn't be able to see her anymore. She suffered a stroke and lived several more years. When she died, my sister called me and said that she died at 11:11 in the morning. It was a sign. I gave an antiwar speech at the funeral to a group of firemen that had worked Columbine. It was at the height of the Iraq war. They thanked me for the speech and respected me for recounting her life. She would have loved your show, Chef. She probably watched it.
