Rating Fast Food Chicken Sandwiches
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 июл 2024
- Who has the best crispy chicken sandwich? There are so many restaurants to choose from. Names that you've often heard get the most praise certainly include Popeyes and Chick-fil-A. But what about KFC? Or Raising Cane's? And what about the classics...McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's? There are far too many restaurants that boast a crispy chicken sandwich now, leaving the choice for consumers rather difficult. So, I've done all the hard work and drove to every single restaurant in a day (actually, we drove to Popeye's twice since the first was somehow cash-only). I taste-tested every single one, examining each sandwich and also taking into account the fact that experience can certainly vary by location.
Ultimately, there's a list of somewhat clear winners. I'll let you watch to be surprised, but I will say that the top two spots are actually quite close. The top three, however, have very firm and stable positions. I hope that I can help for next time you try to pick a lunch on the go.

The best chicken nuggets would be fire af

The best fast food hamburger
The best fast food fries.
Nick visits Nicks to try Nicks menu, ft Nick at Nicks ?!?
"That chicken is drier than the Sahara desert"
My boy Nick has taken notes from Gordon Ramsay
Ha
Lol
He was trained by him so it only makes sense
Agreed
hahaha
Petition for nick to try and build his spice tolerance, that would be pretty entertaining lol
Lmao yeahhhh
I bet lisa ngyuen would react lol
@@nouraahussein4889 yee that’s the first thing I remembered
It really would
Lisa nygen had entered the chat
I was surprised by how good the Burger King hand breaded spicy chicken sandwich was. It was crispy, had good flavor and was very good for fast food crispy chicken sandwiches.
Yeah I really like the Chick-king sandwich. Here they’re much more crispy and better. We also don’t have Popeyes here. 😢
I like the classic chicken sandwich at Burger King the long one
You shouldn't be, Burger King and Popeyes are owned by the same company.
burger king has one of the best chicken sandwiches everytime i get them they look how the popeyes looked the burger king he went to is the worst burger king sandwhich i’ve seen lol
I got one a few days ago it was dry af
Thanks for doing all the heavy lifting, Nick! Great chicken sandwich tour. Your feedback on them is gold! Looking forward to more :)
I love that Nick doesn’t pretend to be above fast food restaurants and doesn’t act like they taste like garbage. He is a cook and prefers the finer, fancier foods, but loves some good ass McDonald’s.
I agree with your opinion
I also agree with your opinion
I thirdly agree with your opinion
Unlike another chef on RUclips
I agree with your opinion
Popeyes employees being mean to you is part of the experience
Lmaoo so true
For real! The Popeyes by my house, I swear they always want to fight! 😂
Then I'm not getting the full experience.
Exactly what I was thinking, they be kinda rude but the food still be slappin
I guess I'm not getting the full experience either.
Nick: “Chick Fil A didn’t have seasoning”
My Local Chick Fil A: Challenge Accepted!
so true
Chick Fil A seems so overrated
@@necroavirusif Chick-fil-A is overrated McDonald’s is terribly horribly and tragically overrated
I used to dislike chicken sandwich/burger because it is far inferior compared to beef ones (I had mostly grilled chicken ones). But the first chicken sandwich that changed my mind was the McSpicy Deluxe from McDonalds, it was a super tasty and juicy fried chicken sandwich. They made it really well that I only get chicken sandwich/burger every time I go to a fast food joint. Later on, I continued to try ones from KFC, Popeyes, etc. I must say I am addicted to fried chicken sandwich now lol
First reply gang 😂
i just watched a 20 minute video about crispy chicken sandwiches and i don't regret it

I just recently found your channel, hasn't disappointed once. That being said, I did this exact thing you did around the whole Popeyes chicken sandwich kick. For my rankings top 3 was KFC taking the number uno chick-fil-a taking silver and Popeyes coming a very close 3rd. Even though chick-fil-a does tent to over cook there bird, it really came down to sauces and service. In my opinion you really can't beat a place who's been in the chicken game since 1952.
Again great video. I haven't been disappointed since subscribing.
Nick actually makes the food looked good
the people at my kfc are nothing like that😭 they’re all 16 year olds who hate their job and gets your order wrong
Same In Houston Texas on 1960 and Aldine Westfield yes I’m saying the addy cus y’all need to get it together 😂😂
When I worked at KFC we were half and half with Taco Bell. I was always the only one working in the KFC side, and I had a side cook here and there. I found KFC is probably the easiest fast food place I worked at, and it blows my mind that people still continue to fuck up there. You're quite literally just frying chicken all day and restocking. With that said, Popeye's has the best chicken sandwich.
@@shlankbank the one close to me is a taco bell and kfc too, i got a hard taco once and it looked like they tried to fold it🤣
Literally every mcdonalds I ever go to gets something wrong, anything from forgetting the ketchup to leaving out the sandwich and just giving me the fries
LOL
This should've been a blind test, rating each one blindly and then finding out which sandwich was from which restaurant.
yes
true
Nah
Yes
“Restaurant” 😐
12:05 LOL it’s so funny how those two shops are like basically next together! 😂
Just found your channel and am enjoying your content. When you go to Popeyes you have got to get Cajun sparkle and put it on your sandwich. Btw, that is not the colonel’s body on the bag it is a southern bow tie. Keep up the good work!
I demand you redo this but for SPICY crispy chicken sandwiches.
It’s what we all are thinking 😂

2:56 @Nick DiGiovanni, for the sauce, you're supposed to like break or crack the corner of the container itself, then peel it, that usually works for me.
Hey Nick! Since I know you like to travel places and find new things. There’s a place in Joliet, IL called “Chicken N’ Spice” it’s very underrated they make these amazing chicken chunks and also amazing chicken sandwiches! Maybe you could try it out some time?
It's Ironic that the mcdonalds guy said Popeye's is the best
*While he was wearing a mcdonalds shirt that said "loyal-tee"*
wait til his boss sees this with a million views
Then again, the McDonald's chicken sandwich IS the worst out of all the fast food chicken sandwiches.
@@lotsoflogos Nah from nicks reaction it seemed the wendy's and burger king was the worst. Burger king chicken taste terrible

I like how Nick is a humble chef and is willing to admit when food is good. Most just call it nasty even though it truly isn’t
But it is. It’s cheap quality food. Everything in those foods is fake and synthetic like at least 90% of it because they have to preserve it.
@@Mae-bu2wu its fast food for a reason

I died laughing at the chicken tender sandwich 😭 he looked so shocked when it fell out
For chick-fil-a you said you wanted the sauce to be squeeze able but that’s why they have something called honey roasted barbecue, which is just like the normal sauce

I don’t know if you have it in your area, but Zaxbys recently came out with a signature crispy chicken sandwich (they have a spicy one too). It has pickles and a giant piece of fried chicken, along with their zax sauce (you can get the spicy version as well) and a brioche bun. Originally Chicfila was my fave crispy chicken sandwich but……..zaxby’s may have just topped it 👀. If you ever have the chance try it please!
I think in different parts of town every restaurant has there own unique way of making chicken sandwiches when I saw the Burger King sandwich I was like omg that’s nothing compared to wat I get in Tupelo but after I watched this thank you nick bc I got three chicken sandwiches when I got home 😅😂
For you Nick, I’ll suffer through both ads entirely. 🤧

“And if you don’t [have a crispy chicken sandwich], what are you doing?”
Del taco has crispy shrimp tacos people say tuna is the chicken of the sea tuna is almost like shrimp so basically a chicken sandwich
Hi
shaun
Yeah we get it
ARGGGGAAAAA
Nick, my burger king location has very thick slabs of a chicken cooked to perfection with just the right amount of sauce and seasoning, and they always make it fresh for you
I like that he actually eats them there instead of taking them home, since they are way better fresh.
He still can speak hand beautifully even in a car
*beautiful hand movements in action*. ✌🏾🤞🏾🤌🏾👏🏾🤟🏾💪🏾👋🏾🤙🏾👌🏾👆🏾🖐🏾✋🏾🖖🏾👇🏾👊🏾✊🏾🤛🏾👉🏾☝🏾🤏🏾👈🏾🤘🏾🤜🏾
He even accidentally removed his hands on the steering wheel cause of his severe hand movements lmao
He does drive a Tesla, so he probably uses autopilot. You still shouldn't remove your hands from the steering wheel on autopilot.
Dude I swear RUclips is watching my every single move as soon as nick bit the burger king chicken sandwich A BURGER KING CHICKEN SANDWICH AD POPS UP
Drinking game: take a shot every time he says "crispy chicken sandwich"! 😂😂😂
I'd pass out
The spicy ones are always better, they’re hardly spicy but the sauce just makes it so good🤩
IKR
Especially the Burger King spicy chicken
They’re never spicy but they tend to have more flavour, for sure. Looking at you Popeyes
Uuyyyy you 😩
I have a big thing for Mcdonalds Spicy Mccrispy deluxe
The normal ones gets drowned in mayo unfortunately
The employees at Popeyes aren’t nice cause they know their chicken is good 😂😂😂
Nick should watch that RDC world popeyes skit
It really isn’t 😂...
@@jaypizzle95adames Hating on something because its popular doesn't make you cool
@@squish162 not hating on it lol... just saying I use to manage a popeyes until I moved last year.. and I’m telling you the truth.. but go off big fella
So that’s something odd, he says at the end they were snippy but when he gets the sandwich he says “they were sweet”. What gives?
Sitting here in bed at 1 AM on a school night, starving while watching a guy eat every crispy chicken sandwich in the US
As a chicken sandwich addict, my personal favorite of all is CFA Spicy with extra pickle, bacon, and BBQ on top, must try.
I love the way he respects every worker and he never say bad word about the food also one more thing is that he don’t waste food even tho the food is bad

at least canes got 3 tendies in there
canes was at the end of the video! i died when one of the tenders just fell out it was the awkward silence for me 😂
Lmfao canes away from the chicken sand which for sure is the best fast food you can get though
when i went to mcdonald’s i didn’t even get just a chicken tender in my sandwich and got an actual crispy chicken patty and it was good
Nick: struggles to open Chick-fil-A sauce
Also nick: doesn’t know you’re supposed to break of the corner piece
A moment of silence for the Ch’King. Though it left us far too soon it will remain in our hearts for life.
nick at mcdonald’s; there’s no sauce
also nick at chik fil a: applies sauce to a sauceless sandwhich
HOW IS NO ONE SAYING ANYTHING !!! It’s driving us crazy!!!
Cause McDonald’s doesn’t give sauces that go well with it
Nick lies and lies about Chick-Fil-A and he knows in a blind test their chicken will always be the best! Period, End of Story!!!!! But they want to go by the whole sandwich and not the chicken itself! I so get tired of Tube fakers! who make so much money but aren't really honest!
imagine a restaurant only taking cash so you drive 45 minutes to another one instead of just going to an ATM
For real omg
Exactly what I was thinking🤣🤣
Exact thoughts
From the same mind that compares chicken sandwiches but covers the best one in sauce thereby ruining the entire comparison.
This is why I always make sure to keep a 20 with me at all times
Nick not knowing how to open the chick fil a sauce right it killing me
definitely a good reason for burger joints to not do crispy chicken or have a ton of menu items. more menu items often increases service times as alot of those things (especially specialty, THICK chicken sandwiches) take a LONG time to fry and you cant cheat them like you can by pressing patties
You can really tell that he's Italian ... look at him talk with his hands lol
Yo he's italian?! The way he speak sounds like American
@@khylechristianderosales1894 Italian american
He is Italian but born in America so he’s got an American accent.
He's Persian
@@iconicthagoat7614 he may be part Persian, but Digiovanni is definitely an Italian name.
The fact Popeyes didn’t say “hey we are only accepting cash” or have a sign up “saying cash only” before you order is just strange.
I feel like most fast food places have to take a card. Maybe something went wrong with their system that morning and they didn’t have a sign?
Its a Popeyes, terrible customer service is more central to their brand than chicken is.
@@lucyg4532 yeah but with all the cardboard or even the electronic menu they should be able to put a simple sign up.
@@IH8AI by far the worst customer service. Burger king is a close second.
