Who makes the best chicken?

i worked at canes and i can honestly say that it’s cleanliest and top quality fast food restaurant to exist. it’s ridiculous how high the standards are

California resident here. I remember visiting New Orleans and seeing a Cane's. I didn't think much of it. Recently, my city built 4 of these and I thought, "who the hell likes Chicken Fingers?" I dont even like Chick Fil A. Then, somebody really recommended their lemonade. I love lemonade, so i went ahead and ordered one. I experienced great customer service, so i thought to myself- "might as well try their chicken." When i bit into it- holy crap. Their chicken is 100% breast (I love breasts) and super Juicy on the inside. Outside its amazingly crunchy. I WAS HOOKED! It's not greasy nor salty. I can tell that they change the oil a lot. I now try to go as often as possible.

Interesting Rasing Cane's fact. The founder Todd Graves, & his wife where participants on Secret Millionaire in 2008. Todd & his wife posed as normal hourly employees, in order to see how things where running, & to reward outstanding employees. It was essentially a precursor to Undercover Boss.

since the pandemic, there has been a line of 30+ cars around dinner time at canes near me. its crazy, it goes out the parking lot past a kfc a taco bell and a mcDonald's lol

Canes didn’t make spicy chicken fingers because they would have to make a different marinade and batter so it would be difficult and would probably be harder with both

Pro tip: ask to have your toast buttered on both sides.. they will do it and it makes a big difference 😉

I usually just get Cane’s when I want something super quick. They’re good, but Im not a huge chicken fan. With their tiny menu, they’re way faster than the other fast food places.

I love learning more about stuff like this!

I love Raisin Cane's! They're really cheap, tastes good and fills you up! Its up there with In N Out as best fastfood places for me.

Spent a few months in Arlington TX, and Raising Cane's chicken fingers was in my belly every 2-3 days! :)

After working in oil refineries in California and salmon fishing off the coast of Alaska, Graves returned to Baton Rouge and opened his first restaurant in 1996 near the gates of LSU. He named the restaurant after his yellow lab, Raising Cane. The rest is history - dipped in a little Cane's sauce.

TIP: Bet most of y’all didn’t know that Raising Canes has honey mustard that they make in house. You just have to ask for it. 😆

i was watching this video and i legit 2:15 saw the address for a brief second and had to go back. legit that one is down the street from me lol

I’m from Kuwait City but I live in Miami. Whenever I go back to Kuwait for vacation, I literally have to order from cane’s in a daily basis, it’s so freaking good.

Thanks for opening in Kuwait! my favorite fast food restaurant hands down!

The staff are really nice and my order is perfect everytime🔥🔥😋

2:28 “never frozen chicken fingers” well here in Hawaii, they have to be frozen to get here lol

In bed watching this at 11:30pm. About to go before they close lol

To "RAISE CAIN" means to be a trouble maker or hell raiser... so clearly his dog must've been a pain in the a$$....🤣

I’m eating Canes while watching this and I’m crying. Very loving and moving.

I love the history great job bro!

I absolutely LOVE.. 1 LOVE .. raising canes.. they have the best chicken fingers around.. im so pissed there is only one location in my town of Athens GA.. there should be no less than 10 locations peppered around my city.. such quality food and service.. unrelated note.. i also miss a little outfit called chicken express.. oh my god yall .. their chicken was bomb and they had white gravy for dipping and corn nuggets and bisquits.. also they had a copycat location called golden chick that also closed.. they were both ridiculously good chicken joints that inexplicably closed.. no idea why.. they were always busy and were bringing in plenty of customers and money.. its a damn shame.. also another hometown favorite known as the varsiry closed up shop as well.. bomb ass hotdogs, chili fries, peach pies, burgers and the infamous frosted orange.. was an athens staple for like 80 years.. closed its doors.. i have missed it every day since.. nobody made as tasty a hotdog as the varsity.. period.

This Mashed youtube feature of The Little Known Truth Behind Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers has some impressive details on the history of both how the Raising Cane's came to being and some of the multiple reasons why the Raising Cane's has become popular among many foodgoers. I have to credit my husband for indirectly influencing my discovery of Raising Canes and I admit that I personally prefer the honey mustard sauce that is offered for the chicken fingers (though I can easily understand why the Raising Cane's sauce is also popular among many customers).

Love Raising Canes !!

i love raising canes but i wish the chicken wasnt so bland; you need the cane sauce for it to make it taste better. I still love it tho but again i wish the breading for the chicken had more flavor

1:10 STUFF!!!!! I haven't seen this dude in YEARS!!

Just got hired here, I have orientation in 2 days. Thought it would be nice to know more about the company I plan to work with for years and make my way up there as manager someday! One Love ✌️❤️

the Yum Yum sauce sold at Walmart taste exactly like Raising Cane "special" sauce.

I lived in Baton Rouge in the 90s and frequently ate at the original Raising Cane's when it was the only location. It was so exciting when they opened a second location across town. I can't believe those college kids who started that one restaurant are now bajillionaires!

Certified Gold!!!!!

Something I miss and thinking about taking the trip to Portland for it.......

They do make delicious chicken 🍗 and fries 🍟!!! Their 🍋 lemonade and sweet tea are the absolute best! I enjoy them!

I've only had Canes once and I loved it

Eating it now, and it is a long drive through st louis. Delicious 😋

I ate their chicken once and got inspired to make my own version of their tenders and in some ways they taste better if not the same to me my daughter and girlfriend loves them

They just build one here in Philly. Our best chicken chain is Bonchon but I’m eager to taste raising canes

Dwight Yoakam has a great voice..!!

Such a fantastic place and it’s delicious!!!!

Wish, they was a local one around me.

Never thought you could sustain a business from strips of dry poultry, that's why u need a bucket of sauce lol....Amazing

Man i wish they had a raising cane building in Columbus ga

They cheap as hell when it comes to paying their employees

I ain’t have raisin canes in years🤤

I love working at cane’s!

How long is it gonna take mashed to make a video telling us what not to eat here?

They need to open their locations for dine in I haven’t been able to eat at canes because I don’t have a car for drive true , I used to eat there 4 times a week religiously .

It's not that great. For me, I'm not a sauce person. I feel like the chicken strip is all about the spice and crunchiness in the batter for the strips. So for raising canes chicken it's really bland if you dont use the sauce. I do love their texas toast and crinkle cut fries and that's about it.

I worked for them. An I miss it. Everyone is hands on up to the owner.

I love canes I went today on my day off it was so good 😋

I like how they show all these vids of employees being happy and excited to be working 8+ hour shifts while only earning 7.25-10 dollars an hour while grease steam gets in every one of their pores and go home smelling like fried chicken.

Need this at new Jersey, d, c, and Bronx for jobs

But there staff is friendly too🤣

A Loyal customer from Saudi Arabia, It's freaking delicious 😋🤤

thanks mr graves

This video us the closest thing I could find when I searched for "history of chicken strips"

We have it here 🇸🇦 it’s amazing

One is finally coming to Philly. Should be open next year.

I have been there a few times I enjoyed the chicken I thought it tasted very good . It was very meaty. I can' t . Say too much about the fries. The staff was very helpful my first time I went cuz I didn't know what to order.. they are a bit on the pricey side but the restaurant was clean and nice.& . I would go back when they open the doors as I do not like drive-thrus..🍗🍗🍟🍟. Have a fabulous day everyone

the girl @ 2:44 has the same we're a B16 deal hoodie that i have lol

I would loooooooove a Lemon Pepper version.

For It Being A Fast Food Place It Is So Good!

I used to eat there for lunch often because it was literally across the street from my job....It's really not all that like many rave about....Low on flavor and spices but it is really juicy. It also kind of pisses me off that they don't offer a spicey option when the bulk of their competitors do Very basic to me. #teampopeyes

1:26 you said what ... oop_

My grandma game that sauce since i was a kid, so caines wasnt first it was grandma :P

Need more locations

I would love to try foods from Raising Canes!

Since Alabama doesn’t have these restaurants we’ve made a place called “Roosters” in Athens Alabama in the veeeeerrryy north of the state. I’ve had both and tbh roosters Is cane’s with hella more options and IMO wayyy tastier. Y’all should come visit honestly just search up Roosters Athens AL !!

I like to add hot sauce to canes sauce

When she says ALL OVER THE WORLD then mentions Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, UAE and shows Lebanese flag, didn't know that these counties represent the other 189 countries out there.

Need one in New Zealand

Wasn’t the special sauce leaked by an employee?

The last time we ate at a canes there was a hair in the chicken so I ain’t went back it was in Nacogdoches Tx

I’ve literally never heard of this place, the closest one to me is 5 hours away

The chicken is the best I have ever eaten, but the rest of the meal is not all that special

Eh, I always thought the tenders themselves were quite flavorless. The sauce acts as the seasoning I guess.

love the CEO Todd, , great success story...but after years of waiting to go to a raising canes, they opened one in my hometown. It was underwhelming. The fries and chicken were bland, the cole slaw was bland, the texas toast was soggy..but the sauce was good. I cant beleive the reviews I get for this company. the chicken was better at KFC. i dont get it. Maybe the workers didnt cook it right. Ill have to try it again i guess...my store is in newark, de....but the atmosphere was great, but the food very underwhelming...i dont get why it is so succesful....buds chicken & seafood in west palm beach florida only has 5 stores, but they are 10 times better....

I'll bet MSG is among the list of 'secret' ingredients

They need to make a spicy chicken finger to bring me back

I thought there sauce had anchovies in it

They do indeed have the best chicken. Hands down.

I barely started eating Canes in 2020

I ate at the Mothership almost every Friday after class when I was at LSU.

More than anything these need seasoning like they got the breading and crunch right but damn will it kill y’all to at least add salt😂 that pro tip if you ask for hot sauce they will give you some hot sauce packets🙏

Their chicken is fire

Never tried it. Never heard of it actually🤔

At 0:37, why is there a Lebanese flag?

i work at canes 😁

Stop there was a family on a road trip and it was absolutely amazing so glad we stopped. I hope they bring one to Michigan someday. I hope the owner sees us please and thank you!

The sauce probably has chipotle in adobo sauce.

Canes is godly

I haven't seen any McDonald's workers there yet

In from Colorado and raising canes has never once impressed me, honestly only ever disappointed with their quality, taste, dryness, prices, even their sauce is mediocre. Whats their draw I can go like five minutes down the street and get way better food cheaper

Anybody else taste a difference in the chicken, I don’t know it just taste cheaper it’s hard to explain but something is different from how it was

They changed the sauce and its not as good as it used to be :(

Put seasoning in the food

Kraft assembly sauce cups

1:26 yo wtf did she say

I just tried Raising Canes today and the Chicken tasted like cannabis to me. It was ok

They need baked chocolate chip cookies.
