She has such a calming demeanor.

Fried chicken was my favorite growing up. Love the tip about taking the bone out of the thigh!

Grandma always had fried chicken on sundays after church!! With pinto beans,gr beans,potatoes,cornbread, ect..and she always made me a choc pie all to myself.,hid in the back of the refrig..I sure miss those days!

I was raised in the country and it brought back memories I cut up a chicken just like you, you 2 are truly a delightful couple. Bless you both and your whole family 🙏🙏❤️

My daddy wasn’t always home when I was little because of what his job entailed in the military. When he was home there was almost always a fried chicken on Sunday-even if we had to go catch out behind the house. Daddy and I both loved the back and the wings. Since there were two wings we’d both “call” for the back at the same time. Mama started cutting the back in half so we each got a wing and we each got half of the back. Daddy passed away this last June just shy of his 87th birthday. Had he made it until July 4 th he’d been 87. We buried him with the love of his life at Ft Sam on July 11th and watching this video has just put the biggest grin on my face which is why I love watching y’all. Though I am South Texas born and raised mama would send me up to the Ozarks frequently when I was little when daddy was overseas because I was hard to keep inside. I was always being told I talked funny even now and you know what-me and God are just fine with the way I talk! Y’all have a blessed week to come.

My mom used to cut up the chicken and fry it in her cast iron skillet. She’d say, “Get a good scald on it!!” You sure brought back memories. We ate a lot of chicken because it was cheap. Bless your heart!

My sister and I love listening to you not only for the great cooking you do, but your accent is the same as our aunts were. When hear you talk it warms our hearts God Bless you and yours !!

This brought back some of the best of my childhood memories. Grandma was from Oklahoma, raised on the farm. Every Sunday after church she would fry up 2-3 chickens ( so we could take some home), a big bowl of mash potatoes with lots of white gravy and fresh corn. Since Fridays were her baking day she always had pies and cakes, all made from scratch. No matter how many times I have tried to cook and bake, it was never as good as hers. I think I should have added more love to it. the recipe because she always loved to cook and bake. You remind me so much of her. Thank you for bringing back the wonderful memories!! God bless you and Mr Brown. Love you two.

New subscriber from the hills of north Georgia! I was raised up with my grandparents keeping animals, so I'm good at plucking chickens, but I always left the kitchen when my Grandma went to cut them up. My husband asked for fried chicken as his birthday dinner today, but the store was out of pre cut fryers. My granny is no longer with us, but as a child of the internet, I googled how to cut up a whole chicken. It brought me straight to you, so thank you so much for showing me how to do it. :) I always fry it up like my Grandma did, with buttermilk and bread crumbs, in a cast iron skillet full of lard. I'm off to check out the rest of your videos.

My mom passed 20 years ago taking along her cooking secrets. I told my family the other night I missed her fried Chicken. I'm so glad I found this video....Thank you so much! Very, very appreciative!❤️

It has been 35 years since I had good fried chicken. My Great grandma had the best tasting fried chicken. She raised her hens, and they where pampered too. Their meat was sweet and juicy. God bless my great grandma! 🐓♥️🐓♥️🐓

That drawing of you and your husband is amazing, you are so pretty🌷

I absolutely love the way Southern's talk. I really notice the accent as I'm from Canada...

The sound of that chicken frying is so satisfying😊. Bring back memories when my mother was alive and she would fry chicken

Hi Mrs Lori! We buy our chicken and pork from local farmers too. My mouth is already watering at the thought of your fried chicken. A friend of ours gave me a deep iron skillet that belonged to his mom, when she passed. I cleaned off some rust and reseasoned it and it's perfect for frying chicken. I use Italian dressing to marinate grilled chicken but I never thought of using it for fried chicken. And self rising flour, aka Bisquick baking mix, brilliant! Mrs Lori, you got it all goin on in that kitchen of yours!

That's exactly how my grandma taught me to cut up a while chicken. Thank you for sharing.💙🙏🌻🦋💙 God bless y'all 😇💙

I also use self rising flour. It’s the baking soda that makes it very crispy. And 10 minutes at 350 f for white meat and 14 minutes at 350 f for dark meat. Marinate my chicken in buttermilk mixed with a whole bottle of frank’s red hot. Yum. It’s a labor of love and the family loves it. Thanks for your videos. Love them!

Brings back so many memories of childhood eating Sunday dinner at my grandmother's, all the family came together. My Paw would kill 2 chickens off the yard for my grandmother to fry. A much happier time in this old world, blessings Ms Lori, hugs

Mrs. Lori, watching you cut up that chicken, and just watching you cook in general, reminds me of being a kid, back at home, watching my momma cook. I'm so glad I found your channel. God bless you and yours!

when i can’t sleep at night i take the greatest comfort in watching your wonderful videos...because in the trying times in which we live you show me that there are lovely and good people still out there..Thankyou for your ministry, lori, (even tho you may not think of your videos this way!) ❤️🌿

I am so grateful to have found you ! Absolutely love watching you !❤️❤️❤️

I am well into my adult life, but cutting a whole fryer was one of the first things I learned! Oh. I grew up in Arkansas btw! It was a Sunday thing for my family. Lol

Hello! Exactly how I was taught to cut up a chicken! My husband likes the back, too. Love fried chicken for breakfast with biscuits, fried potatoes, and gravy. Like your idea with the dressing marinade. Ought to be very flavorful and tenderized. Y'all have a wonderful day!

Great video, thank you! I really felt your comment about the price of chicken wings. My wife and kids LOVE my hot wings, but I can barely afford them! In 2021 it's even worse. Yesterday they were $4.89 a lb!! The reason is the hot wing industry. They've driven the price up through the roof. The good news is that there's a million things you can do with the other parts of the chicken which are still pretty affordable.

My mouth is sure watering now! Noticed your biscuits and chicken gravy too, Oh boy!

That INFO on removing the thigh bone 🍖 before frying is “the tip of my year”!!!! Thanks!!😉

Ms.Lori, you are an amazing cook! I can't get enough of your videos!!! I absolutely love your channel!!! You're the best!!! Love you y'all!!! God bless and keep you. ❤🕊❤

My dear, sweet nona came from Italy. She could fry up the best fried chicken in her cast iron skillet. She just loved America and learned to cook some of our traditional dishes in addition to the dishes she cooked in Italy. We ate lots of chicken backs because they did not cost much. I was one happy girl when she put a big old platter of backs on the table. Thanks for another wonderful video and for bringing happy memories back to me. 🌻

It looked really good, young people don’t know what they are missing unless they had a Grandma.

Your both an inspiration, thank you so much for the time and effort you put in to this.

Smiling here....I remember my Mum would send me out to open the door to the old henhouse and they'd RUSH me...I was terrified...haha...and I'd run, red hair flying, across that yard! LOL Oh, this look's SO good...bring's back memories of Sunday dinners after church!! Thank you both...we are so blessed to have you in our lives!! xo (I'm late responding..Kidnapped hubby and took him away for the weekend!!) lol

My stomach was growling the entire video! You brought back so many sweet memories 😘 much love to you and yours

The best friend chicken is fried in lard! Thanks for the tutorial, your food looks amazing ( as always!).

Cute to know that Mr. Brown’s favorite part of chicken was the back. It was my husbands favorite piece too. Good going Mr. Brown. I also was raised in Ky. And we had chickens. So I know how to cut up a chicken. I showed my daughters how also. I also buy whole chickens. 🐔🐔🐔🐔

This Chicago boy just loves your videos. You do a wonderful job capturing the ways of the South.

Good morning to Whippoorwill Holler. Found you about 2 weeks ago, and it's changing my life. Had lost so much of my growing up day's. Your bringing them back, that is the gift your giving. Love your channel so much. Thank You both, Blessings.

That chicken looks so good! Wish I could eat your cooking 🤤. Love ❤️ to see your animals and Mr. Brown working up an appetite. 😃. ❤️👍🏻😜

Another wonderful video Lori...I love the idea of using the "Ken's" Italian dressing as a marinade for the chicken pieces before frying ....talk about great Flavor!!! Also thanks for the refresher on cutting up a fresh chicken ...many folks dont know just how easy and cost effective it really is!!! But your finished product made me so hungry! That fried chicken looked amazing and I could smell it all the way up here in Bucks County Pa 😋...Please let Mr Brown know that we always called that section of the back bone "the oyster" and it truly is the best part of the chicken when cooked! He really has excellent taste! Thank you again Miss Lori and God bless to both Mr Brown and yourself ❤🍁

This is Jimmy from Indiana. Yum Yum!!! My mom always fried her chicken in a large deep iron skillet. It was the best. I was always unsure about cutting up the chicken. Thanks for the lesson. My wife and I have a small homestead. We have some baby chicks and also a hen sitting on 10 eggs. We plan on keeping the hens and putting the young roosters in the freezer. My wife also wants to can some chicken meat. God bless!

Ms Lori, that is one FRESH chicken. And NATURALLY raised. Excellent job. Just like my grandma showed me. Simple is so much better than all that (crud) some people put in it. I just love the old school of frying chicken. God bless you Ms. Lori and Mr Brown.

Thanks Lori, this chicken looks so good. My mom was a lunch lady at our local high school too. I may be a "Yankee" but I'm southern by heart. Love your videos.

This morning I thought of you ..I had southern breakfast , grits and smothered pork steak and gravy with a fried egg on top .boy was it so good ..sat out side my apt .and drank a cup of coffee and talked to my Lord and Saviour ..Thanking him for all my blessing's ,was cool and beautiful looking over all his beauty in the sky .Brought tears of joy to my heart for EVERYTHING he has bestowed over my life ..You have a blessec day to you and the Mr Brown ..Thank you for your great vidieos ..🤗🤗🥕🍈🍗🍲

Bringing back memories my granddaddy loved the back also you bring peace to us all Thank you

I love your sink! It’s so much like the one I grew up with and remember fondly. I’ve heard those really good pieces on the back called the oyster of the chicken. When I take the meat off a rotisserie chicken, I always treat myself to those “oysters”.

Oh goodness I can almost smell that chicken way down here lol! Showing how to cut up a chicken. What a wonderful skill to teach. One of the best things my mama taught me all those years ago. I don’t like a big bulky chicken either. We do so many things so much alike 😊Probably from being raised in the South lol. That plastic wrap trick is so stinkin smart😂. Thanks for sharing another great video. Love and blessings❤️❤️

You sure made that look easy Lori💕😀

I've used the bis-quick mix as the coating for my fried dishes this season and they do turn out crispier. To Dredge zucchini I used the bis-quick mix, egg bath, then the seasoned bis-quick mix, a small variety of seasonings there, just onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper which made the nicest fried zucchini this year.

I just love your show. I watch it all the time. Mr Brown is a real hoot.

Love your shirt. Greyhounds rescued me, I’ve had 9. Loving your channel. Enjoying your work. Thank you

Yes, ma’am, that back bit with the tenderloins is my favorite part too!

you have been giving this old lady new ideas thank you and God bless

I just love your kitchen and thank you for showing us how to cut up a chicken a lot of city folks don't know how to cut up a chicken but as country folks like you and I we know how to do it

Ooo just in time Mrs Brown. I am waiting for my cast iron to get here. I am sick of these dang useless pans for frying chicken. That is what I learned to fry in was the cast iron. I learned to cut up chicken working in the poultry plants in AR. Thank you and God bless you both and Happy Weekend. Delicious!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

My gramma used to make the best chicken. She was from AR and TX. Sadly she passed when I was little and never found her recipe. Haha I remember when she used to go out to the yard for a chicken. 🐓 Your kids and grandkids are so lucky and blessed to have you my friend! 💖😘🙏🏻

Watching this video brought back many memories of when I was a child. My mom would go outside and catch the chicken for Sunday lunch. We were country folks and country folks raised their chickens and hogs. We grew the vegetables in the garden. The vegetables were canned and frozen for the winter time. I have seen many plates of fried chicken that we enjoyed on Sunday.

My husband can attest to the fact that my very favorite is fried chicken anytime. Yours looks just great , you are making me hungry at 8:47 at night. Thanks so much.

Just realized I'm watching this on my phone and I have another video of yours on the TV. Lol

I have never cut up a whole chicken. Thank you for showing me how! Also, I've never seen anyone not dip their chicken in egg and milk before rolling in flour. I'm gonna try it!

In late 40 never got to learn this. Now I can. Thank u for showing simple steps.

I was born and raised in Ohio, the Cleveland area. I moved down to Florida and met my Miami-born and raised husband. His mom was raised in Alabama. She taught me so many of her recipes. I love southern cooking and eating!! Heehee!! Now I say I was yankee born but I’m a southerner in my heart!! Love this video. The new cabinet behind you is pretty. I like the stone wall, too! Thanks for all you do. Have a blessed week!!

Thank you for the tutorial on cutting up a chicken. I have been winging it for years (no pun intended). :-)

Oh my, I wish you guys would just adopt me! Tomorrow's Sunday & I'll be making your fried chicken receipe. I can actually smell it while you're cooking😄

LOL....my Mom always liked the part of the chicken that was last to go under the fence....just like Mr. Brown. We kids always called it the backbone with tail but Mom always said, no it was the last part of the chicken that went under the fence. Brought back good memories, thanks.

Glad you showed how to cut up a chicken. I have shown so many young ladies how to do it. The only thing I do differently is I cut a pulley bone and I cut the back in half. Those two are my favorites. Thanks!

We grill chicken that has been soaked in Italian dressing all the time. It is so good!

We call those 2 divets of meat on either side of the lower back the oysters or cook's treat. If I'm cooking, they never make it to the table!!

Great Job, so many people don't cook anymore,thanks for helping to teach them. It will help them stay healthier. You can cook great meals easily and quickly. Will also help your finances.

I absolutely love watching you cook I say it every video, but I absolutely mean it. I love that you are so genuine, and that you have such great cooking tips I absolutely love watching you. Thank you again and God bless you and yours

I've watched so many fried chicken videos. I always love watching your videos more then the rest.

Awe you fry chicken the same way I do. Can't beat a good fried chicken!! Big Hugs!! 🤗💖

As usual it looks delicious. Lori, I just love your & Danny’s kitchen. It is the most welcoming and inviting kitchen I have ever seen.

We had chicken every Sunday after church when I was a kid. Great memories and thumbs up video! Thanks for sharing! ♥

Thank you Lori. Love fried chicken. Never made a whole chicken, just tenders. Gonna give it my best and try. Looks really yummy. God Bless you and your family.😘

Thank you. I agree chicken should be small so it cooks before it burns. That’s been my problem anyway.

I LOVE Poultry Seasoning!!!! It’s good on anything chicken, chicken dressing, etc! Will add Cumin next time. Poultry Seasoning & Cumin are magical when they meet your taste buds. Thanks also for chicken dissection 101. It’s been a great refresher course, LOL.Stay safe. DeEtte

My mother cooked fryed chicken most Sundays when we were growing up,Mr Brown is so lucky to have you.my wife and I can't cook so great.I haven't had a home cook meal in over 20 years.cracker barrel at best..love to watch you cook.

Hi sweet sis, OH LORI your chicken 🍗 looks absolutely glorious!!! you're a wonderful cook dear friend! Mr Brown will definitely have to open up the buttons on his britches after supper 😂!! my men would scoff it down in two seconds flat!! Awesome video Lori! sure to be a winner!! Winner Winner chicken dinner !! 🍗 😂 xxxx

My dad was a food inspector in Germany while he was stationed there. He taught us to soak all fowl overnight in a saltwater brine due to bacteria. I was sharing this with one of my elderly neighbors, she said she always soaked hers in a vinegar brine. I tried this overnight with vinegar and salt. It was the best, juiciest, and tenderest chicken I have ever made! My husband loved it! No vinegar taste either. I love your channel Ms Lori! I have learned so much from you! We did the opposite switch! We moved from Arkansas to Texas after my dad retired from the Army! I love Arkansas and miss it dearly!

Fried chicken and roasted chicken are my two favorite meals ever! My grandmother made the best fried chicken! She said that when she was a little girl ( she lived on a cotton plantation) they had fried chicken nearly every day... on the table with breakfast..

Thank you Ms Lori for frying chicken. It takes me back when I lived on chicken farms in Pilahatchie Mississippi when i first was married. My Grandma in law would go out and dress a chicken whenever someone shoowed up. No one was ever turned away hungry. We had our big meal around noon and leftevers were what we had for supper. Now you take a girl from Cincinnati and put her on a chicken farm...it led for some interesting stories i have 😆😂 but I learned to dress and fry chicken from Grandma. I miss that woman 😔 Thanks for reminding me of the good times. God bless y'all have a great weekend 😊🤗🥰😇😋😋😋🙏🙏🙏🙏

Love Your Kitchen, Especially the Large Beige Buffet Table/Dresser, I also love the Picture of you Two.

Never thought to use the Italian dressing. Looks so good!

I have watched a few of your videos and I just love them , you really know how to cook, and you are a very nice lady, I havent had fried chicken in a long time, Thank you for sharing!!

That kitchen counter top takes me back to my childhood. SO cool.

Thank you. That looked so good. I did not think about the bones I could take out

I love using “Viva Italian” dressing to marinate with.

Yes,my grandmother fried chicken every time we came to visit. Us kids always watched her prep the chickens.❤️

I just found your videos. I have clicked "Subscribe," "Notifications bell," and "Like" what I see. I am 72, and a lifelong country girl. I married at 18, and since Mom preferred her kitcheen to herself while she cooked, I learned to cook, by watching PBS. (The Frugal Gourmet, The Galloping Gourmet, Madeleine Cooks, Julia Child, Jacques Pepin and others), collecting cookbooks, and of course, much trial and error. I must have learned a thing or two, as these days, everyone seems to enjoy my offerings. PS: Butchering, and cutting up chickens, was one thing I did learn as a child. .

I remember cutting up my first chicken...my husband ask what it use to be...that was 30 years ago..

Deer meat is fabulous soaked in Italian dressing for an hour before frying don't rinse dip in flour and seasonings , it gets rid of the gamy taste and is wonderful

Miss Lori I love your dress. I have been cutting up chicken the way I was taught but I always did the joints opposite of the way you do them. You know, bending them and cutting into it and then up from the underneath side. I did not know to get it really dry to make it crispier. Or about self-rising flour. Thank you for this information. I can't wait to try it. We raise our own chickens for meat and have layers too. We like to just stand and watch and listen to them. It's so relaxing. Thanks again and God bless you and Mr Brown.

I'll sure try this. Fried chicken is my very favorite. Hope when u all retire..u can com thru joplin mo and we will have coffee. Sure enjoy the show. Thank u

I’m coming over for dinner Ms Lori 🤣 From one southern lady to another, you sure make a nice plate of vittles 🤣 Love you guys!

You've brought back such wonderful memories of my mother standing at the stove frying chicken or rabbit. It was always perfect. I wonder did she ever burn anything? I never saw it if she did. Probably knew whatever she was cooking could not be easily or readily replaced. I'm thinking now, too, if I ever taught my kids how to cut up a chicken. They watched me do it often enough. I'll have to ask. HA! I yelled to eldest daughter in the other room (she's 38), and she hollered back "YES!" Then my 11yo grandson came in the sewing room and said, "That was the most random question I've ever heard anyone ask." Thank you for another great vid. Also, I would LOVE to see how you do your oven-fried chicken. When I was a kid, our lunch ladies made the best oven-fried chicken. I've never been able to replicate it. Pretty sure they used corn flakes. Thanks again!

my daughter looooooves her some fried chicken!. the first time I fried chicken for my husband I was 19 yrs old. lol It was so pretty, and raw in the middle! haha!

Thanks Ms Lori and Hey Mr Brown! Sending love and appreciation from the Upstate of SC 💕🐓🙏🏽

Oh my does that chicken look good! It's been years since I've had a homemade fried chicken. Thanks for the video. I can just smell it through the computer. :)

Thank you for sharing this video, this is a lost home act in this generation.

I'm so glad you left the skin on,it was touch and go for me ,but you left it on,delish. I love frying chicken. GOD BLESS YOU

I watched my grandmother cut up whole chickens for years. I never mastered that task, but now that I have granddaughters of my own, I want to share that experience. I will your video as my guide. Thank you for taking me back to that happy place! ❤️
