Kettle Fried Chicken w/ pron

aawa · May 17, 2014

N8man inspired me last week with his thread. So I had to give it another go, since my first time the breading fell off when you picked up the chicken. This was much more successful.

Picked up some House Autry and doctored it up a little bit more with some Lawry's and Simply Marvelous Peppered Cow. I also soakedthe thighs in buttermilk and Franks Red Hot (I put that s*** on everything)

Some close up shots of the chicken.

Put them in the fridge and went and got the kettle ready. I threw some lump into the chimney and fired it up.

I threw the lump on some used coals and a piece of maple. Left the lid open for about 10 mins to get the fire burning clean and then put the top on.

Once it came up to a steady temp of 375 i opened it up and threw the chicken on.

While it cooked I got my sides ready. I did some garlic mashed potatos, chicken gravy.

Tomato, cucumber and onion salad with a strawberry vingarette

The asparageus was just olive oil, then toss some turbinado sugar and kosher salt. Then grilled them directly over the coals as the chicken finished cooking.

And the star of the show the Kettle Fried Chicken.

My plate of food.

Thanks for the inspiration N8man. This dinner rocked!

I was very happy with it. I am definitely going to use this method over the batter method that I tried before.

It was the perfect hot weather salad. Eating it was nice and refreshing. Although this has got to be the first time on this forum that someone commented about a salad.

It feels like I did. The flavor was spot on. Texture was spot on. Crust stayed on and the smoke was just the right amount. My roommates and I throughly enjoyed it.

Thanks bucc. I need to cook some of the dishes that you have posted using lamb. I haven't ever done lamb before.

I would highly recommend giving kettle fried chicken a try. It hit the spot of regular fried chicken for me and it is better for me.

The chicken looks AWAsome! Love me some thighs, and will have to try this out soon. But what really got my attention was the cuke and onion, tomato salad. The strawberry vinaigrette dressing sounds delicious. Did you make it from scratch or was it a commercial blend? My favorite salad when available, dinning out.

Blessings,
