Dropping this on a Sunday is the real flex

"Where is the Chick-Fil-A sauce?!", Gordon asked calmly.

someone needs to tell josh about all the sauces you can pick from lol

That throwback ad was the real treat. Kendrick and crew are treasures

CFA isn’t over rated. It is so well liked because it’s simple and consistent. It’s not mind blowing but it’s good every time.

To be fair with the sauce debacle they do always ask you if you want to add sauce that you can always put on yourself. Also prefer oil-dipped style Nashvilles more than the Chick-fillit spicy these days and I don't even miss sauce on that plus it goes super good on a biscuit for brekky.

Joshua, welcome back 🤗. Congratulations to you and your Bride!! May you always be as in love as you were exchanging your vows. Blessings to you both.

Watching this man always makes me sad that I don’t have a kitchen I am limited in what I can cook, but I’m always inspired to cook something new!

If you're going to do homemade Chick Fil-A-do homemade Chick Fil-A sauce!

I love the retro aesthetic on Texture Over Taste's ad! Do more! I keep enjoying the mere look of your buns over anywhere else's. You know what else is magic? B ROLL.

This looks amazing! Can you please do the Double Smoked Bacon Breakfast Sandwich at Starbucks? I’ve been looking for a copycat recipe for the buns for years!

I tried adding 1g of amylase as you suggest because I thought it is the secret to soft buns, but turns out: what you were using is surely a ”bread improver” mix that contains some parts of amylase because if you use pure alpha amylase you are supposed to only use 0,006% of it, while you are using 0,2%, meaning I was overdosing by 30 times and my dough just turned into a gummy substance and did not develop a crumb at all. The buns came out like raw although they reached the correct internal temperature!

I've never been to Chick-fil-A but as someone who is very picky when it comes to sauces (mustard and mayo are a no-go) I like the fact that you can put any sauce on.

This man will never run out of But Better episodes.

Hey Josh, I have watched so many foods videos on KZfaq but it is your channel that gave food and it's making process a real and fun meaning. I hope you would never stop. ❤️

Love your video's and I can tell everything you make is super yummy. I can only eat this way once in a while, but I like to go all out when I am serving others. Great inspiration!

They don't put sauce but they offer you any sauce that you want. I usually put the Chick fil A sauce. And it's can be a bit dry, but that's why I get the spicy deluxe, it has lettuce and tomato.

I'm sorry Josh but I just can't do bread and butter pickles. You can pry my homemade half-sours out of my cold, dead hands. (That said, this recipe looks awesome, looking forward to trying the new recipe for the buns!)

Congrats on 8mil man! You deserve it! I also still use your recipes from your cookbook! Very delicious!!!

I prefer this form of video over that game play stuff. I love your channel for your cooking knowledge, hope to see more of this again in the future

Congratulations on 8 million subscribers Josh! Been watching your content for a long while now, and I look forward to seeing you reach 9 million:D

I genuinely don’t know why people complain about there being no sauce on the sandwich. You put the sauce you want on it, pick from the sauces and put it on yourself. They have their chicken-fil-a sauce, not everyone likes it, they might like Polynesian, or honey mustard, or buffalo etc. by leaving it unsauced the people can do what they want.

As someone with a ton of allergies I love chick fil a cause I don’t have to worry about any sauce with something I’m allergic to and they only make chicken so I don’t have to worry about cross contamination with other meats either it’s so nice. Plus they have so many sauce options I like that so I can put the sauce on when I want and not have soggy bread.

I would love to see your take on Jamaican Food. Beef Patties & Coco bread, Jerk Chicken w/ Coconut Rice & Peas, oxtails etc

😱 awesome recipe… you made me love cooking 🧑‍🍳.. keep up the great work

Love this channel so much! Been a fan for a long time! Thanks for all this content papa!❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

As a person who doesn't like mayo at all, (or many condiments on my sandwiches), I appreciate that Chick-Fil-A doesn't put sauces on their sandwiches. Not everyone is crazy about sauce and I like the fact that they give you the option to just do it yourself if you want that. I don't know if I just have good CFAs by me, but I eat my sandwiches without any sauce on them and my chicken is never dry. I can't speak to anyone else's experience, but I've always had a good experience with CFA. Plus, the spicy chicken sandwiches has a good amount of spice to it and I really appreciate that the spice is in the chicken and not in the sauce like in other restaurants.

I love when you drop a cook book. You are the best commercial man mama

So now I want some Chick-fil-A but it’s Sunday so I guess I’ll just have to make this recipe

This chicken sandwich looks delicious! I definitely will be making this week!

Good to see you back making your regular videos again, I missed them

😂😅 my son loves chick filet and I told him I could make them at home 100 times better. And then I found your channel the same night! Which was kind of weird but I appreciate this. We’re gonna try it- buns pickles and all!

Past chick fil a worker here. The secret to the spicy chicken is the buffalo marinade that comes already on the chicken from the manufacturer. Our coater is basically what you made, you got all the spices right. Our coater itself isnt that spicy and its only real difference from the regular is that it has paprika. Other than that, nailed the but better.

Oh man yet another bun recipe! I have been making the chicken sandwich buns from your McChicken video. It's going to be a bit before I can make these and see what the difference is -- if anyone ends up making both, I'd love to see which one turns out the best! And they are most certainly different recipes in case anyone wants to double check -- if you convert this to baker's percentages, it'll be a little easier to see. Plus the one from the McChicken video had malt powder in it

Want to buy your book here in Brazil. Can't wait to have it available.

your craft is great！👍👍👍

Not gonna lie the Spicy Deluxe from Chick-fil-A is the best sandwich I've ever eaten

Super great video here, Josh and team! That sandwich looks amazing!

I make a variation of the "crispy chicken flamethrower" sandwich and I might have to try that chicken recipe. To me, the chipotle mayo and thick cut bacon (on top of the deluxe dressing) just cranks everything to 11. A good tomato and pepperjack cheese makes any sandwich better

I love watching these videos, I live alone in an apartment eating cheap bland foods so watching these videos helps me allot, I'd love to support your channel as it supports me but I'm broke so best I can do is watch and like your videos. Please continue making videos much love💕

I am always making the buns! Awesome :)

Kendrick is so funny, can we have him to cook in 1 episode?

Whenever I make your recipes, I apply every gram to the letter and BAM, it always comes out perfect. Whenever i try other youtubers recipes, it usually fails. Maybe its me. but if thats the case, yours come out impeccably well. I dont know how you do it. but, damn man. GOOD JOB.

I came back from visiting the US last week and I really did enjoy chick-fil-a. I ordered this exact sandwich. I wish I was able to try some of the other sandwiches. I loved this one...I ended up buying a chick-fil-a sauce in walmart, so I'm hoping to try out this recipe!

nah I live in Mexico, and when I travel to the U.S. the thing I most look forward to is a Chick'fil'a Spicy chicken deluxe, with mac'n'cheese instead of fries and a root beer. It fast and delicious, but granted it is fast food. I have had better chicken sandwiches than what you get at chick'fil'a, but for the time it takes and how good it is it makes it worth it

Still waiting to see Papa take on Panera's cheddar broccoli soup. Easy enough to flex on a fast food sandwich but no homemade buns to elevate your soup game

Used to work at CFA! We don’t do a sauce so those who have allergies (like me) don’t have to ask for it off, and then we have to make a whole separate sandwich and slow up the line.

I love this man!

Honey go get your fancy dress, new But Better just droped

They have no sauce because you are supposed to put it yourself. And you get to choose how much sauce u want or combos. I think thats better than ordering the sauce and getting a sloppy mess.

Great video as always

Congrats on 8mil

From over a decade ago, Wendy's had a special 4 alarm spicy chicken sandwich that has been my all time favorite chicken sandwich of all time.

the way you skipped chick fil a sauce is crazyyyy

8 million congratulations 🎉😊

Bringing the flavor game to a whole new level 🍔🫙🥬🍅

As someone who doesn’t go to fast food places regularly and doesn’t even have all of them available, I really lost track what the difference between all these chicken sandwiches are

Finally! This is the spicy sandwich I’ve been waiting for!

i agree Joshua. I was so excited for it to come to Canada and then ......whomp whomp

Love bread and butter pickles yummy all pickles actually so good

he said why is there no sauce? get the sauce

Bruh… you pick whatever sauce you want 🤣

I love chik fil a just cause it’s consistent probably the reason a lot of ppl do

I was missing you Joshua , thanks for this amazing video (I didn’t see it yet but I already know)

Looks really good, try making more fastfood but better, but with the same time the fastfoods made it. This would be a fair race, seeing which one is going to be better.

His main complaint is about the sauce that they have endless options on Polynesian, Southwest, chipotle, honey barbecue honey, mustard, barbecue sauce, ketchup etc. etc. 😂

Congrats on 8 million subscribers josh

Seriously I'm ready for more than these better recipes. Master Chief stuff

Chick fil a is definitely not overrated

So you ordered it without sauce and complained about there not being sauce...? They have some really good sauce, my favorite is the honey roasted barbecue.

Yum

I love the SCS. Consistency is an issue. Sometimes they are dry af, but other times I’ll get one that’s moister than a oyster and that’s what keeps me coming back for more.

Im sure this tastes amazing, but the spicy chicken deluxe meal from Chick-Fil-A will always be the ultimate guilty pleasure of mine 😋

I've never eaten at Chik-fil-a and I'm honestly proud of that. Definitely going to give this But Better a try

I really like this format better. Less obnoxious cuts and stuff to appeal to younger tiktok audience. I really enjoy this one

I love the 80’s commercial bit. That was awesome 😎. Papa did a good one.

Bro really decided to drop this on a Sunday. My man.

Finally a spicy chik fil a sandwich that's spicy and worth it.

dang i enjoyed the cooking book ad in this vid i love classic style ads

I think Chick-fil-A provides a consistent chicken sandwich. That's why i like it.

Despite cheating by going with the thighs and sauce, this looks amazing. Definitely going to try it. Other than the bread n' butter pickles, which are literally the worst.

The surprised motion of my head whipping back almost gave me whiplash when you started showing b roll without first announcing it.

I made this today. Lots of work but damn it was so good I keep thinking about it. I had enough breading leftover that I started breading fish I had in the freezer. Might as well fry everything since I have the hot oil ready.

Id argue its not overrated, they load it with tomatoes and pickles, they have the best bun, and the chicken is always perfectly cooked.

I made it. It's delicious and saved myself 40$. I didn't do the overnight. I needed it now. My son liked it also. He's 7. I went easy on the cayenne but I wanted that taste. Next time I'll half the breading and wash (egg, milk). I had a lot left over. I also pan fried it with 1/4 inch oil. Lard & EVOO Which was more than enough for my 5 chicken. I used chicken thighs pounded 1/4 inch thick. RIP Auntie Fee. Miss yeah.

Excellent

Gonna have to make this today

Fun fact, you can use olive oil to make mayo. HOWEVER, it completely changes the taste. I personally like it, but it can be too strong for some types. Definitely use a neutral flavored oil the first time you make mayo.

I think Chick Fill-A not putting sauce on their sandwiches is genius, actually. If you want sauce, you can just ask for some sauce and then you get to decide how much you want on it. It's impossible to get complaints about there being too much or too little sauce.

I liked your previous bun recipe, so I'll be trying this one out tomorrow! On the side note, what can I do with all those leftover egg whites?

happy 8M Josh

I’ve made both! They’re both tasty for sure, but I think the breasts have a much better texture for a sandwich. Breasts are just as easy to cook as thighs as long as you have a thermometer. Texture is way more important than the very slight difference in taste imo.

No sauce and I’ve also never had a sandwich from them that looked like that. They’re always delicious

This is so interesting because I LOVE their chicken sandwiches in nj but hated it when I was in Virginia Def going to make yours

That whip though🔥🔥🔥

This guy really complained about no sauce after saying no to what kind of sauce he would like

Joshua certainly is the king of the kitchen. There isn't one recipe that he had totally messed up.

Thank you for making this Josh. Ever since they added sesame flour to their buns I haven't been able to enjoy these with my allergies :/ Time to make them homemade!

Ive been wanting to see Josh replicate their spicy chicken for a while

Chick-fil-A doesn't need to be the best. It needs to be good enough and judging from the line that goes around the building 3 times near me, I think they can consider it good for fast food. Also, just ask for sauce packets if you want a sauce.
