RECIPE
How to deep fry safely:
www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/gui...
These were my main starting points for the recipe:
www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/fr...
www.seriouseats.com/homemade-...
So...
I started using chicken thighs but switched to breasts to make it thicker
You can pound or slice the breasts do your desired thickness
This recipe is good for around 4 burgers, or two breasts divided/pounded and cut, or 4 thighs probably
THE BRINE
1 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons salt
You can add spices but I'm pretty convinced they're not gonna soak in
Wangjangle that salt until dissolved then put your chicken in the brine for at least a couple but ideally 6 hours in the fridge in an above ground pool or IV bag
Oh by the way that's the chicken I mentioned above that you're putting in
THE SLAW
Shred or chop some cabbage and carrots. Like a cup of each
On part mayo, one part sour cream, one part red wine vinegar or another one for the dressing
Some pepper pepper pepper. Did I even put that in the video? I think I just remembered that I forgot.
THE DREDGE
1.5 cups flour
2 tablespoons of corn starch
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
A whole bunch of chipotle powder or a non dangerous amount of cayenne or literally whatever else you want to flavor it with
Once the chicken has had it's bath, drop some drops off the chicken into the dredge to create little powdery globules to add more texture to the chicken, then mash the chicken in there, cover it up, flip it around or whatever
Heat your oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you don't have a fryer, or an oil/candy thermometer, order takeout. Never let your oil temperature get out of control because it will light on fire and you will panic
How to dep fry safely:
www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/gui...
Fry for a few minutes until your chicken is cooked. You can go until 165 degrees but if the chicken gets up to 155 degrees and stays there at least a minute it's also safe
Then assemble the sandwich by putting the separate parts together until it appears to be a singular object.

[@randomrecipes5007]

Shows underneath he's serious, doesn't want people to injure theirselves, and takes cooking seriously, it's just with his channel he's trying to lighten it, and make it fun for people who can't, or should I say... don't want to cook cause they think it's tedious, or don't think they can... I'd bet anything this dude is dead serious behind camera, loves his cooking, highly respects the craft. It's not my cup of tea, the immaturity, but I highly respect what he's done, and the idea of how many people he motivated, who would have never turned on a stove, grabbed a pan, ingredients, etc and made something they could be proud of, and enjoy makes me happy about the world, and I fully support a channel that's not for me.

[@drunkulasretrofuntertainme4746]

For the 4:49 crowd remember if you pause then comma and dot (or < and > if you're kinda shifty) allow you to move frame by frame. And to those regular fryers out there doing a lot of this sort of thing don't put the spices in the flour as it kinda degrades the oil faster. You can create a spice mix and dust the chicken after in a bowl like those pop-up food trucks do when they pull sick wheelies.

[@adelitaflores-moss454]

You have changed my life with this knowledge

[@VNdoug]

For a great hot chicken you can add a spice mix with brown sugar, garlic powder, black pepper and a shit-ton of cayenne to a separate pot then ladle some of the hot oil to that pot. Dip the fried chicken in and enjoy. If you're really brave, also melt some lard in the spice pot. Totally worth the clogged arteries.
