KFC vs Homemade
If this were Chinese Food, I’d say the “Cat” is out of the bag on this recipe… (insert cringe) So we decided to recreate it at home. Watch as we do a blind taste test comparison of KFC & our Homemade version to see if it actually is Colonel’s Recipe.

THINGS YOU'LL NEED:
- HJF Cutting Board: https://bit.ly/2Eyhr3R
- HJF
Apron: https://bit.ly/2Ez9z0
- Deep Fryer: http://amzn.to/1MRHIG5
- Batter Pro: http://amzn.to/2bE3wdI
Instructions:
- Double up on the 11 Secret Herbs & Spices into 2 separate bowls
- Coat roughly 8 pieces of chicken in 1 bowl and add buttermilk until
the chicken is submerged completely. Cover & refrigerate
overnight.
- In the second bowl, add 2 Cups of All Purpose Flour
- Drain the buttermilk off the chick and place in the flour mixture. If
you don't have a "BatterPro" you can use a large brown
paper bag. Toss your chicken in this and shake it until fully coated.
- Deep fry at 350°F for 5 minutes or until golden brown. If you're oil
is really light you can fry for the entire duration it takes for the
internal temperature of the chicken to reach 165°F. But if your oil
is dirty, take your chicken out when the color is what you want and
then finish it off in the oven. It should take approximately 15-20
additional minutes for the chicken to reach 165°F.
- TIP: The drumsticks will most likely finish before the thighs because
they are smaller in size.
