I'm from South Africa and every American I've taken to KFC down here have lost their mind! Apparently it's next level compared to the US which is crazy cos I thought that there was just the one top secret KFC recipe with the 11 herbs and spices. The very best was a few years back when they were making spicy Zinger pieces. Usually you only got Zinger wings and burgers. Its perfectly spicy and super crunchy without any oilyiness.

[@mandolen3317]

It's because US chicken are so low quality that can't even call them Chikcen in Europe

I wonder what's the difference. KFC in Germany doesn't compare to what I was used to growing up in Cape Town.

[@Overanalyse_This]

@@Meridee1 what would you say the difference is? It that the food is oily or just a lower quality or is the taste itself that's different? Also down here, it really does depend which branch you go to. There is one closeby that is just always bad. But if I go the one like 10 minutes out, it'd be totally different. In my part of Cape Town, I'd say that the ones in Mowbray and Observatory have always been pretty good.

[@ceskil]

I worked in KFC outlet for 2 years, and they double bread the chicken with the flour and seasoning. Also, they don't pre-cook the chicken before the pressure cooker is put on. It was immediately covered and pressure cook for 5 mins, I think. And, they don't use wayu fat to cook chicken, they use ordinary peanut oil.

[@michaelcarey9359]

Where I worked (not corporate) they used the big pressure cookers with digital controls. We'd rack the chicken and fry it in the official cookers for 13 minutes - which is why it takes so long for them to cook more. They used those big 40-45 pound blocks of palm oil back then, now they only use canola/soy blend, at least in corporate stores.

[@keithtauber4153]

Which is why I won't eat it as peanut oil becomes partially hydrogenated oils when heated up and is bad for us. Same with Canola oil, olive oil, all seed oils. Tallow like he used (Beef lard) is the best oil to cook in. That or pork lard.

[@davidverhoef3129]

@@keithtauber4153 Actually not true at all. Heating oil past its smoke point can reduce the amount of antioxidants in it but will definitely not add hydrogen (hydrogenate) the oil. Repeatedly heating seed oil past its smoke point for several hours can turn the oil into trans fat, but again not hydrogenated. Trans fat is bad for you so don't smoke the oil or reuse it many times. Peanut oil has a very high smoke point and will likely never smoke when frying in a home kitchen. Hydrogenated fat can contain trans fat but trans fat is not necessary hydrogenated.

Just a quick note, a domestic pressure cooker should NEVER, EVER be used to pressurise large quantities of oil. There's a reason why they're not commercially available. Pressurised oil can easily reach temperatures high enough to compromise the gasket and make the whole vessel basically an oil bomb. A pressure fryer typically operates at 5 psi above ambient, a pressure cooker is about 15 psi above ambient.

[@scottjones1426]

So what if u have a pressure canner that operates at up to 20 psi and has no gasket, but a metal to metal seal? I looked up an official pressure fryer that operates at max 15 psi.

[@Akuu820]

[@VGAPI]

So happy to finally see a video where you guys got it right, KFC original recipe is not crispy, it’s a tender on the skin crust, and in every single KZbin video out there they make it crispy and that’s wrong. You made man, congrats and I’m going to try your recipe for sure. Thanks!

[@bleachedbit]

Old X- KFC cook employee here: You're almost right but what you're comparing is "Extra Tasty Crispy" vs "Original" Original was done in what's called a Henny Penny pressure cooker which about 20 years ago (which was about the time i was working there) the seasoning was like 4-6 different types of pepper and yes msg is a key component. Extra tasty crispy (the one you bought) is double flour dipped. First the chicken is tossed in what looks like a rock tumbler next water and for lack of a better word (chicken base in powdered form) is added which agitates the marination process. Chicken is pulled then first dipped in regular flour then dipped in buttermilk then dipped again for a second coat then just tossed in a regular fryer. I'm sure the process has changed over the years but that was my experience with it ...gg don't get me started on the old school way they used to make that gravy LOL.

[@ffwast]

How did they make the gravy

[@bleachedbit]

@@ffwast I don't know if you a.) want to know and or b.) wish you didn't know :: 1rst off keep in mind this was about 20 some odd years ago. Remember what i said about the henny penny oil deep pressure cooker? It has a dual purpose. The oil itself after every fry was cycled through a metal filter that had something like a cardboard filter over it (this was built into the henny penny itself and had it's own cycling mechanics). Everything it caught (meaning the cardboard filter) was a component added to to the gravy, lol. So i guess you could say the "original recipe" was a key player in the "original gravy" the filter scrapings (in certain quantity) was then added to water and a factory vendor collection of what i would assume would be corn starch (maybe, not sure if you'd need corn starch with deep fried flour) and other seasonings(it didn't say on that package what the ingredients were). No idea how this is done now, but i lamented that construction at the time, lol. It's an interesting use of deep fried flour but slightly disturbing. I'm not entirely sure how that all plays together because another component in the "original" recipe was dehydrated powdered egg.

[@ffwast]

@@bleachedbit well I was under the impression it was some kind of thickened grease and chicken byproduct, which is probably an apt description of gravy, but I did expect some actual chicken content

[@bleachedbit]

@@ffwast well i mean, you were not wrong in your assumption that, henny penny was only used for the original recipe chicken, that's all that was ever fried in it. There were two "breading" work stations that one would have to dart between when breading the chicken they were both back to back. One was for extra tasty crispy one was for original. Each had identical (seasoned)flour sent from the KFC factory to start with but one had that weird seasoning mix added to it after said fact that came to us in a packet and had a list of ingredients on it. It was at that point that i learned it was about 4 different types of pepper msg and that weird powdered egg. That was only added to the "original" flowering station. It was dipped once and then put into a cage (which held about two whole chickens pc count wise) then dropped into the henny penny on a timer. Chicken then came out then removed and put on a flat rack to go to the display counter under the heat lamps. Now since the skin is left on i would imagine that fat renders in the deep fryer(over and over all day long i'd say about 20% chicken fat / oil at that point). Also taking into consideration that powdered egg adding to the flavor of the oil after x amount of time and all that is vacuum compressed on that filter when one cycles the oil after every fry. It's an interesting method because everything you've said is absolutely correct. It's chicken fat / grease and hella browned/burnt flour that gets in essence marinated in the oil as well as that powdered egg.

[@bleachedbit]

reflecting on it for a moment it's prolly the most hella seasoned roux one could create. I mean ... it's literally folded beyond with vacuum compression.

[@sethralphs2815]

Looks good guga. I worked at a KFC in 95 and spent many hours around those pressure fryers (not the safest things in the world). I will say you put a ton more prep into your chicken than KFC did. Back then at least the chicken went from blue tubs (1/4 full of blood🤢) directly into a flower spice mix (one for original and another for extra crispy) and tossed by hand. Original went in cylindrical racks that went into the pressure fryers and extra crispy went on a flat rack and got dropped in an open fryer. Our KFC did livers and gizzards on Thursdays which used the pressure fryers, hated prep for that day...peeling the yellow skin off of the gizzards... pulling the fat off of the livers...😣

[@matthewwalker4143]

As a professional chef I can say that cooking at home can make the food taste even better for individuals, because the ingredients and their quantities can be adjusted to peoples individual tastes, the prep doesn't have to be rushed meaning that no food is precooked which you may find with some restaurants. I can make the food I serve in my restaurant even better at home because I do not have to think about using cheaper alternative ingredients needed for the up keep of the restaurant and staff salary. I love the honesty here.

[@jamesaroeuett1567]

If you read Colonel Sanders's autobiography, he went with pressure fryers to speed up the chicken cooking process. He said it took ~45 minutes to complete an order for fried chicken using a traditional cast iron skillet. It took ~15 minutes or less (can't remember the exact time, sry) with the pressure fryer. Basically, the fried chicken output increased dramatically so they could serve more customers. This was all in the era when fast food was just beginning.

[@foobarmaximus3506]

He bought the process and the recipe from someone else. I read that story too. He just took it and tweaked it a bit. He bought it because it was delicious. And many people agreed!

[@AeroDr]

Also, the poultry at that time took a lot longer to cook than the broiler chickens sold for meat today. Current pressure fryers use much lower pressures than the older models the colonel started with for the same reason.

[@Anon24052]

I work as a cook at KFC and while it depends on how much chicken you cook it generally takes between 13-15 minutes to pressure fry everything

[@earlnoli]

@@Anon24052 how many chickens you cook at a time?

[@impact9310]

Im sure this has been said somewhere in the comments already but MOST normal pressure cookers do not have oil rated gaskets in them. High pressure oil can melt the gasket and your pressure cooker so check to see that yours is oil rated or risk a ball of pressurized fire

[@ericz7986]

You're talking about pressure cookers vs pressure fryers. It's also made of much thicker steel to contain the pressured oil vs pressurized water. My pressure fryer cost $250, 40 years ago and my pressure cooker cost about $50.

[@seraph8615]

Guga truly does what he loves. Happy for him

[@Tombstone-X]

Close to the Original method so KFC uses a sodium (MSG) powder buttermilk mixture with water base so it gets more into the chicken then marinade the chicken overnight and the herbs are in the flour breading before the pressured rack bird cage dropped into the pressure cage! they do this 7-4-7 step! This means drop the chicken in the flour roll the chicken 7 times then put it in a drop bucket in water shake it 4 times then back in the flour 7 more rolls then loaded! Wings legs top the rack and breast and thighs bottom! Herb Thyme, White Pepper, Dry Mustard, Paprika, Garlic Salt, Celery Salt, Ground Oregano, Dry Basil, Sea Salt, Ground Ginger! Important is the Pressured Fryer this type herb won't burn in just a typical deep fryer! That is where they use extra crispy where fewer herbs in it!

I also worked a KFC cook many years ago (and met Col. Sanders!). It may be done differently now but we always put the spices in the flour NOT separately on the chicken and the lid went on the pressure cooker right after the chicken went in.

[@mikelundquist4596]

So, I'm going to comment before I watch. Here is generally what I use for fried chicken. First I season the raw chicken with salt and pepper. In one bowl I have milk and an egg. In another I have flour, salt , pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika and poultry seasoning. Sometimes I add a little panko. I coat the chicken with the flour then into the egg/milk. Then back into the flour. Deep fry in canola oil. Comes out crispy and very tasty. Now i will watch the video.

[@tatecheddar]

It's called a "Broaster". It's a proprietary deep frying device that has a heated reservoir that holds the oil and a lid that slides on a rail from the back to the front and closes down over the pot to seal it under pressure. They use them in many restaurants and I know for a fact that they use them in our KFC because I know people who have worked there. They have a way about making your chicken very crisp and juicy. We have one where I work and the chicken is great out of them, although KFC is still way better. It has just as much to do with their breading as it does with their frying method.

[@wspence2007]

I owned a dedicated pressure fryer from the late 70's/early 80's, and it made TREMENDOUS chicken! Unfortunately, it eventually died. But you cannot SAFELY use a regular pressure cooker to pressure fry... the gaskets aren't rated for the high heat of boiling oil. Every pressure cooker instruction guide stresses this implicitly. The Instant Pots and other electric pressure cookers won't get the oil hot enough to fry WITHOUT pressure, so that's not even an option. I'm all for experimentation, and I'm not saying I WON'T try this method at home, but it certainly shouldn't be advised... just sayin'.

[@Hylean_Way]

But the oil shouldn’t boil when frying, the temp is the same as when frying regularly (less than 400f). I think a silicone gasket should be fine at that temperature, but really i’m not sure.

[@Darkolas]

I love watching Guga videos, but the second I saw him say that any pressure cooker could be used, I did a double take. You are spot-on about the gaskets failing due to not being made for oil. This is a deadly time bomb! Guga! Please fix this before someone gets hurt!

[@coonassprepper5243]

you are absolutely wrong most the new ones use silicon gaskets which will handle the heat just fine. Just gotta be careful to buy the right one. It wasn't that long ago they were advertising regular pressure cookers as being able to use them for frying. the only quit doing this due to extra precautions. But if done correctly its perfectly safe to do so. Also if you use an induction its much better because it wont get too hot as the bruner reduces in heat as the oil heats up due to pressure so it keeps it at the right temperature.

[@wspence2007]

@@coonassprepper5243 - dude, do with it as you will, but when the instruction books all SPECIFICALLY say DO NOT USE FOR DEEP FRYING, I personally wouldn't recommend it to 775,000 viewers... just sayin'

[@Lilitha11]

It is going to cost what, a couple of hundred dollars to get a dedicated pressure fryer? If the chicken turns out half as good as everyone says, it is well worth buying a new pressure fryer since you will probably make this more than once and it isn't worth having your pressure cooker explode and spray hot oil all over your kitchen.

kernal sanders i do believe used a vacume pressure cooker to fry his chicken in hed fry it in the vacume for so many minuste then release the seal and it would still cook off the fire so the oil gets sucked into the meat then gets pushed out after the seal was released

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

A cheat is preparing your chicken pieces in a bamboo steamer (or any steamer) to where they just finish cooking throught as you let them sit and cool under some cover that won’t allow too much moisture to escape. You can even discretely flavour the pieces during steaming. Then when they’ve cooled you batter them and deep fry. Much shorter cook time, because you only need to reheat and make a crust. YOu won’t run into the batter turning too dark before the meat is cooked through, and any spices will survive better - and all juices are still retained within the meat because less moisture is lost to prolonged deepfrying. Thank me later as they say - or don’t, but enjoy …

[@foobarmaximus3506]

Why? That's a lot more mess for what gain?

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

@@foobarmaximus3506 You preserve juices, you can add flavour and aroma, you can keep them cold and ready for frying in the fridge without them drying in the fridge, you can fry faster and at a higher temperature, without risking burning the crust before its done. Doing this prep somewhat imitates what a pressure cooker might do if you dont own one, and it means you can fry a bigger batch more quickly and have hot food ready for everyone at the same time. It’s more gentle on the meat which is much more tender than just dunking it in oil. A Finally you can make a nice soup or sauce from the runoff in your pan

[@KvltKommando]

I always wondered if this would work

[@legion_prex3650]

thanks for the tip, i will try!

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

@@KvltKommando Works a treat. You can do similar things with say pork belly, shank or shoulder for some preparations. Not adding batter but just deepfrying the cooled, steamed meat then perhaps going on to add a thick sweet/sour”spicy glace and then smoking it in the wok over some sugar, rice and tea leaves. Time consuming but awesome with a fairly fatty cut.

[@msr1116]

To me, the three most prominent aspects of KFC are: Saltiness infused throughout the flesh, black pepper and the coating caramelized enough for sweetness. Anything else used I'm unable to recognize.

[@KatanaFPV]

a lot of sources say its white pepper :) it gives a little bit of that heat too! the pressure frying method will definitely get the salt further into the meat.

I’m a former kfc cook. Open fryer was and is the crispy chicken. Pressure cooker was and is the fried chicken. And, yes, in my day, I also did rotisserie which they don’t make anymore. There is one Main difference with what you did. No soaking in buttermilk. It isn’t necessary. Msg also not necessary. The spices are simple, paprika, salt, pepper and flour The chicken is loaded on racks so it cooks in the oil suspended. That means it won’t burn from the edges of the pot. You put the chicken in and press a button and done. There are only two ways to screw it up. 1) forget to change the oil/or don’t put enough in. 2) you have to remove the kidneys from the thighs. They bleed into the chicken and make it look like a mess.
