Recipe:
Serves 4
Prep time 20 min
Total time 30 min
Chicken brine:
• 1kg or 8 chicken tenderloins
• 500ml buttermilk
• 2 tbspn cooking/kosher salt
Flour mix (I recommend pre-mixing this at home)
• 1.5 cups self-raising flour (no issue using gluten-free flour)
• 1/2 cup cornflour
• 1/2 tbspn thyme
• 1/2 tbspn basil
• 1/3 tbspn oregano
• 1 tbspn celery salt
• 1 tbspn black pepper
• 1 tbspn dry mustard
• 1 tbspn cumin
• 4 tbspn paprika
• 1 tbspn garlic salt
• 3 tbspn white pepper
• 1/2 tbspn MSG (or 2/3 tbspn salt)
Burger ingredients
• 4 potato buns
• ½ red onion sliced to rings
• 2 tbspn red wine vinegar
• Salt and pepper
• ¼ of a red cabbage sliced finely
• 6 dill pickles, sliced
• Egg mayonnaise
• Spicy sweet chilli sauce or chilli jam
Directions:
• Place the red onion and sliced pickles in a bowl with some salt, pepper and red wine vinegar and leave for at least 15 minutes (there is no maximum, they are great a week later).
• Heat the oil to 180deg in a wok or camp oven.
• Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and drop immediately in the flour mix - don’t let the buttermilk drain off, the more the merrier.
• Ensure the chicken is thoroughly coated in flour, especially in any cracks. The messier, the crispier.
• Carefully place the chicken in the oil 2 pieces at a time and fry until golden brown, this should take around 6 minutes. Let the chicken rest for 2-3 min and ensure the internal temperature is above 65 degrees (use a meat thermometer). If it isn’t hot enough, put it back in the hot oil for 45 sec- 1 min.
• Toast the inside of your buns over the fire, then build your burger in the following order: base of the bun, 2 chicken tenderloins, red cabbage, pickles, red onion, generous squeeze of egg mayo, sweet chilli to taste, top bun.

I love that Ronny is just back there making beeping noises the whole time as he plays with the thermometer.

[@firetofork]

I apologise for the big delay with cooking vids everyone. Finishing the book put me weeks behind the 8 ball, so I have been off intensively filming for a few weeks so I finally have plenty of fresh content to edit and I'll be posting regular cooking vids from now on! (I also have another VLOG and a Prado ep in the bank)

[@Ausfreddy1]

Not to mention a kid to help cook haha

[@alch3myau]

All is forgiven... If you make me one of the burgers.... ;p

[@electrontube]

Absolutely no worries there, I'm still trying to catch up on replicating your steak and chips recipe from way back. It'll be a while before I catch up

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

Yesss!

[@Malc664]

It's great you guys are keeping in touch like this. 👍🏻 Don't wait too long for more on-camera get-togethers, please. 🙏

Don’t worry, we have tons more planned. Now I live in the same city again

[@jaredpittolo93]

Is Ronny puffing on a scoob? Hahaha

[@electrontube]

My wife noticed how much time I spend watching your content over and over, she bought me a snowpeak campfire pit. I have you to thank for that directly

[@4x4touring47]

She's a smart lady . . . . . Gets you practising cooking more often and then she gets a decently tasty feed out of the deal 👍👌

That Burger was insanely tasty!

That Prado will be the most important vehicle in camp...it has all the best ingredients in it.

[@michaelmartin2057]

I know this vid is from a while ago but did you use Globus Dill Pickle Cucumbers in your recipe. OMG they have been my favourite for like the last 40 years. Good to see you have good taste in some things.

[@jasonwills4056]

I'm allergic to dairy and get migraines but if I substitute butter milk for a dairy free alternative I could finally have KFC 😭 thank the gods you give an Easy to follow recipe, you are my saviour

Lactose free milk and lemon juice will give you lactose free buttermilk 👌👌

[@stephenmccombe]

Great video Harry!, it was great to see Ronny in another video of yours. You guys are fun to watch

[@sloth_e]

I worked at KFC through highschool a million years ago. The "secret" herbs n spices are listed on the bag they use when mixing up the breading. I think there was actually 14 from memory. Inc msg. Just not the ratios. I had them written down and trialing ratios back in 1990 haha.

I love vids of Ronny, and love vids of Harry, so this combination always wins :D

[@humbertron1000]

Jeez, how many beers had Ronnie put away prior to the chips going in? He did the old sit the can down to get the chips out of the fridge then ended up with a another drink afterwards 😂😂😂 classic Love the content mate

[@VashtiWood]

Your mate with the thermometer took his responsibility WAY too seriously! 🤣🤦 All I could hear, through the entire video, was the "beep beep" if him checking the temp... 👏Every 👏19 👏Seconds! 🤣

[@JoshSinnott97]

Can we expect to see a fridge review anytime soon? 😬

I think this is possibly the best colab(Ronny, Harry)

[@thomasroyal2772]

Good to see you fella's hanging out together. Chicken and Taters (and beer). That is about all we here in the states eat. I myself don't fry much but maybe I can talk Mr. King Overland into it. Great Video

I am almost caught up watching all of ftf vids Harry has been busy over the years

[@Sh4dow682]

LoL Ronny taking his task very seriously :D

[@kerriethompson7234]

Oh I just put Cumin in my mix , it’s ground ginger I think

[@kerriethompson7234]

I think you’ve forgotten the 1 T of powdered ginger in ur spice mix 👍 P.s I can’t see cumin in the kfc spice recipe on the net . Did u have a couple beers putting this recipe up 😂😂😂 🍺 🍺 🍺

[@stevesmith3556]

I was sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for an oil fire! Yikes 😬

[@harrybergeest6790]

Great vid with my two heroes. Missed your vids since the Colonial pig roast. Bought the two knives from Ozbrai after I saw them at Colonial. I see you mostly use the cleaver style one. Do you ever use the chef's knife. By the way the burger looked delicious. Love to see more with you and Ronny.

[@firetofork]

Cheers Harry, I actually use the chef knife more than the cleaver. But I love them both

[@harrybergeest6790]

@@firetofork Thanks Harry, The knives are great. I have some expensive Japanese knives but always wanted some carbon steel ones and these are perfect.

[@michaelhite1433]

Is Ronnie ever in camp before dark!😂 An Australian who actually calls it McDonalds and not whatever you guys call it.😁🤣🤣🤣

[@Dead_Albatross]

Pretty sure we did cold fry frozen chips that turned out good. Try it. But many thanks for cold fry chips. What an amazing idea

[@cattymakes]

We need more videos with Ronny on the choof 😉

[@jamiecox7676]

Back to basic camp fire cooking but uses internal temps to cook chicken and oil temp to cook fries, keep it simple and wing I say

[@nickmunro2252]

Mate love the channel and content you put out. My best tip with fried chicken is to double dip and repeat the crumbing process. You have to be quick but well worth the extra crispy bits.

[@swompa]

Did frozen chips twice the cold oil method, first time they were brilliant with every one being crunchy. The second time I couldn’t get the oil hot enough and they were like cardboard. It does work...50% of the time

[@stevedbutler1990]

So when you say Harry that the chicken is from Mount Barker, do you mean from Mount Barker in South Australia? If so, any particular butcher? Do you recommend? Thanks

[@firetofork]

Mt Barker WA, they are sold at all supermarkets here

[@stevedbutler1990]

@@firetofork oh ok. Thanks for he reply Harry.

[@Australianzwayne]

Really enjoyed being envious of you blokes....thanks....I guess

[@narg87]

can you add the flour to the spice mix in advance ?

[@firetofork]

Absolutely

[@MrWaggy76]

Love your work Harry. Would you say a wok filled with oil over a fire with Ronny on the beers is that sensible? Looked wobbly at times.

[@johnodell9841]

Good to see you back. Cheers from the US.

[@Musterbatortours]

Hey Harry I noticed your chair looks like it has lumbar support. I have a really bad back too so was wondering what brand it is and how you rate it? Thanks and tell Fred I said hi!!

[@Christian76S]

I know this video is almost half a year old Harry, but I just came across this and there came a question to my mind again I had a few times watching you cooking: what do you do with all the excessive oil after frying?

[@firetofork]

It depends. If it’s the oil from chips, I’ll always keep it and filter it back in the bottle, but the chicken oil is single use for me. If it’s a popular campsite I’ll take it with me, if not I’ll dig a hole and pour it in- it’s vegetable oil so it degrades very quickly and has no negative impacts.

[@Christian76S]

@@firetofork That bush solution was what I was thinking of. Thanks mate!

[@scottiebake]

Harry I've been doing the cold oil fries since I heard about it and I use frozen shoe string fries and they always come out perfectly crispy but I have found if you use larger frozen chips they do indeed not get as crispy/soggyish Loving the videos mate 👌 great seeing you and Ronny together great combo.

[@josefbranczyk7316]

Could you please do a video on how to look after your knifes? Have finally got mine and don’t want to ruin them

[@denc6505]

Yes i also agree. They are the best knives, and i want to know the best way to keep them as sharp as the day i brought them all

[@michaelhite1433]

Who’s playing with the camera, Fred?😂

[@NathanSchilling1]

Hey Harry what brand pickles do you buy. I live in QLD and am having trouble buying a good one...

[@1a1u0g9t4s2u]

Curious someone didn't get a shovel and dispose of the cow pie after the first step imprint. Great video. Nice to see the two of you together.

[@outbackswagging1269]

Ahh man that looks so good, how the hell did you guys eat those monsters, keep ‘em coming Harry 🤤

[@jtandy]

Ronny's drinking the best beer ever - Pirate Life IIPA!

[@Scatterpattern]

How slick was Ronny’s one handed glove-donning at 11:40?

[@aarr8656]

What does MSG do to the flavour? and what would it do to the taste if you did not have any?

[@dank_productions94]

Globus polski ogorki pickles are the only picked to buy 👌

[@tenfeetwanderers774]

Flash looking dirty bird burger. Bet it tasted good too

[@Australian_Outdoor_man]

looks good mate.👍

[@Dennis-zr3fb]

That has to be up there with the best video to date, my opinion, 2 Australian mates cooking up some grub and enjoying it without worrying about an overseas audience. Loved IT

[@nathanchernoff9478]

This is where it’s at!

[@sdoville]

180 Celsius or Fahrenheit? The video quality is legit! Great color saturation and definition.

[@firetofork]

Celcius mate. Cheers!

[@davidm6395]

So much salt 🧂

[@xripideffectsxx5162]

Who gave Ronny a chair? He never bring ones

[@davidblunn7143]

Looks great, now what about a Zinger recipe?

[@TheDeldo59]

Jarrah cutting boards will look great but may blunt knives rapidly due to high silica content.

[@Malc664]

It has a low silica content, but the wood is so hard might be the reason it's wear on tools.

[@NippyMoto]

Should have done another 2 hour ep thing like you did last time haha

[@firetofork]

Next ep will be a vlog mate

[@Australian_Outdoor_man]

👍❤🇦🇺🍺

[@eildonweir9693]

Just like my kids...just keep stepping in the shit instead of cleaning it up. Enjoyed it all the same. P.S. try and leave the red onions marinating in the red wine vinegar and salt over night, they are next level.

[@haydenmtb4lif791]

Ronny smokes now? I saw something in his hand.

[@firetofork]

😂😂 we have no idea what he was holding. He doesn’t smoke though

[@departmentofadventure4914]

He definetly put it to his mouth as he walked out of frame!

[@antonyrayson7425]

Poor Ronny smoking on screen 5.15. Puts me off him now 👎

[@blackers10]

He eats random South African dried meats and who knows what other snacks they munch on. Its convenient to hold something with your fingers when you are doing something else. It didn’t look like a cigarette if you zoom in.
