Grandma’s Sunday dinner: fried chicken, mashed potatoes and milk gravy, Lima beans, corn, potato salad, white bread to put more gravy on, sliced tomatoes, deviled eggs, and plenty of iced tea!!!

I tried didn't kill it well.i believe that was the first but lastm time I have ever panicked in my 88 years . By the way I separate the thigh from the drumstick when I cut up..I love your show and I relate to what you do in the kitchen.

I've never seen anyone make chicken like my Grandma did, until now. Tall cast iron skillet. Lard or shortening. She always cut up a chicken. She insisted that pre cut chicken had bad parts they took off. She fried hers a long time turning it often. BUT she always had wishbones. It was sacrilege not to have a wishbone! 🤣 My personal favorite piece. This is the best chicken ever. She would occasionally make her biscuits with lard and you could tell the difference. Her white chicken gravy was the best. Once again. Chris has the best taste!!!!

My Grandma, Katie McDaniel from Oklahoma, made buttermilk biscuits for every meal, flour gravy, she cooked her chicken in Crisco too and used a paper bag to flour the pieces up, she mashed her potatoes, and there was a green garden salad, (all from her garden) for lunch and dinner, then desert was usually peach cobbler or some kind of cake :) She passed in 1999 and I honor her with my cookin every meal. I cook just like her 💖 Thank you Tammy and Chris, you two give me such a warm feeling, because I was raised similar to y'all.

That's how my mom and both mamaws fried chicken!! And now I fry it that way too! And that chicken gravy is so good over some buttermilk biscuits!! About once a summer while our son was little I'd get up early and fry a batch if chicken, fix green beans, and make tater salad (made the tater salad the night before), and we'd load up our insulated cooler with that and head to Gatlinburg and Cherokee for a picnic!!!!!! I'd make enough food so we could eat a picnic lunch and supper down there!!! Those were such fun times. And we'd all about starve to death driving down there smelling that good fried chicken!🍗🥰

I grew up with chicken my Granny had freshly killed and cleaned as well. The only change is that she soaked it in buttermilk before church on Sunday morning which made the chicken tenderized by he time we got home. She didn’t use egg either, the buttermilk took the place of it. She used self rising flour as well. The rest of her recipe was identical, cover for most of the cooking and then uncover and turn up the heat slightly at the end to crisp it up. I make this for my husband as often as possible, it is his favorite meal.

My Mom used to make french fries in her cast iron skillet, and she cooked with Crisco. She would put the used Crisco back in a dedicated container and put it in the fridge. She reused it multiple times. You probably can't do that with something containing flour debris. Reusing it was more economical.

when i was a kid, id see my grandmother grab up 2 chickens, 1 in each hand, and ring their necks. then, she would scald and defeather em, cut em up, and fry em. she cooked on a woodfired cookstove. them was the days. ive had people tell me "we ate lots of chicken when i was young, so now, i dont like it". i think they probably didnt like chicken to begin with. ok. we did too, cause it was cheap, and we were by no means wealthy. at the store, lots of times mom would get wings for free, cause nobody wanted em, or thought they were "cool" like they do now, eatin hot wings. backs and necks too. mom would get them for free, boil em, and make chicken soup after she strained out the bones. even as much chicken as i ate when i was young, i could STILL eat fried chicken every day.

Hi Tammy and Chris... I had to laugh when you spoke of girls \ women not wanting to cut up a chicken but buy it prepared...That sounds exactly like my 2 daughters. I told them many times over the years about dividing up meat to save money but they still don't want to...I buy 3 lbs. of ground beef and separate it into 2 one pound containers and the other pound into patties then freeze it. How hard is that? But they don't want to handle the meat...ha ha ha That chicken looks delicious. God Bless You both... LuvYa! Bye from Ohio

That is the prettiest chicken! My Grandfather and his siblings snuck and fried a chicken when their parents went to town. I imagine this is how they fried ,because I'm sure their mother wouldn't miss a little bit of lard but definitely a cup or two if deep frying. They feasted, disposed of all the evidence and acted as if nothing happened. Later on in the evening, my Grandfather told on everybody!

I just found your channel and saw your "Earthquake cake" from a year ago. You are such a nice person to watch. I wish YT would've suggested you earlier. Now I'll be binging and making a grocery list to try your recipes. And probably gaining some pounds along the way 😊
