I cook some awesome fried chicken myself! Been cooking for alot of years for a very big family! Been cooking since the 60's like my Momma did here in N Georgia mtns! My Momma had Magic Fingers! She could cook anything and never used a recipe! If she saw it, smelled it, or tasted it, She could cook it! She just had that special touch and knew her foods! With a family of 13, She had to know how to Cook and I learned from the Best! That was before we all got married and had kids! Lol Lord knows, I miss my Momma and Daddy! He cooked right along side of Momma many times! He'd peel taters n make the best Fried Taters n onions and Mashed Taters, Cornbread, Cook Beans, and Wash Dishes to help Momma out! It did'nt matter, He'd help her when he could! Many times I was the One in the Kitchen doing whatever if took to get Supper on the table! Now that I have my own large family, I'm doing the same! Better know how to Cook for your Families, especially in these times! Thank you Tammy and Chris! God Bless. 🙏🙏❤❤👏👏

I am a Georgia boy born and raised and I love me some home cooked fried chicken. My mama always said "grease" instead of oil. So did my memah. But, not to get to uppity, we really should refer to the frying medium as oil 'cause that's what we're really frying with. I hope I'm not being to pickey. I'm subscribed and love your show!

I always shallow fry because that gravy from those drippings is absolute heaven. Nothing beats a good brown gravy after you make some fried chicken or especially pork chops. Something special about pork chop gravy.

@lolaottinger3038 9 ай бұрын

I’m kind of confused about your description of chicken and pork chop gravy, everyone I know, and I call that white gravy, I make brown gravy with a roast beef. I’ve been cooking since I was 16….although my first fried chicken dinner I made for my husband was a real learning experience, my Mom gave me her deep fryer, I put the temp as high as it would go, and in less than 10 minutes dinner was ready! Oh my, we got a good laugh out of that. Anyway I’m 80 now, still cook and bake a lot. It’s rainy here today and has cooked off so I made a huge pot of soup and cornbread. Shared it with my neighbor.

@lolaottinger3038 9 ай бұрын

One other thing, if you’ve fried using more grease than usual, you can always just pour it off, but save it to season something, like Green beans.

@edwardburton6687 9 ай бұрын

Looks so delicious. Do you make gravy from the pan drippings and the seasoned flour? It is so good on mashed potatoes or rice.

Wisdom! I did not knew the chicken vs hen thing. Thanks. About the skin. As tasty as it is. Sometimes it holds more grease than I'm happy with. So I just remove all the skin in big chunks. And season it and fry it separately. It renders all the fat and you end up with a nice crispy chicken skin. Love how practical the kitchen is. XD I also use Mazola for deep frying. It's what my grandma used when I was a kid. Although she told me that way before that she used to use lard. But that become harder to find and more expensive than a gallon of Mazola. And it specifically had to be that one cause other oils didn't have the same consistency and food would absorb more. I'm not sure how unique the oil is, or if there are better out there. But I tried other brands and I went back to it. At least for frying. I do have Avocad, sunflower, peanut and olive that I use for different thins. But frying is always the corn one. But man, I'd love to try some chicken friend in pork lard.

I’ve only fried chicken once in my life, and it wasn’t that good. But everything I’ve tried from Tammy has turned out really good. Might be time to try frying chicken again.

A lot of great tips for frying chicken that I didn't know. Like using buttermilk instead of an egg wash before flouring making a difference in the color. And to leave the pieces sit for a few minutes after the flouring to keep the "goodie" on them while frying. 👍 😊

Im always unsure on how long to cook chicken and tend to over cook it and make it tough :(

@kathybennett7560 9 ай бұрын

Some tips have your cooking oil or shortening at 350 degrees and don’t over cook, take it out once the white meat gets to 160 degrees and the dark meat 165 degrees as it rests the meat will continue cooking. Let your meat set in 1 cup of buttermilk at least 4 hours up to 24 hours. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to your buttermilk. If for any reason your juices run bloody then it didn’t reach the proper cooking temperature. The juices should always run clear. (These are all directions of Tammy, at one time or another, just so you know). That will kind of be your guide. You don’t want to turn your chicken too much or you risk the crunchies breaking off it. You can have a paper towel that you set your chicken on first but no more than 10 seconds as you risk the breading softening up. Some people let the chicken rest a minute on a brown paper sack to soak up extra grease without softening the crunchy batter. ❤

I tried making fried chicken last night and it ended up coming out super dark. I didn't even fry it for as long as you say to, but I don't know if it's because I used an egg wash with milk or if maybe it's because I used a stock pot to fry it and it was getting too much direct heat from the burner, but I kept a close eye on the oil temp and it never got super high after putting the chicken in. Maybe you have a suggestion. I started my oil at 360 then it stayed around 300 as it fried
