I loved trying another classic American recipe! Do you have any suggestions for me to try next time? Here's the biscuits and gravy recipe I tried last time: ruclips.net/video/gbuJIuAhjIQ/видео.html
As an avid chicken and waffle enjoyer, I might offer this one thing to try differently: When you made your hot sauce to put on the chicken you used honey, when you could have made a hot sauce for both the chicken and the waffles using the maple syrup instead.
For the love of god Barry- the basket in a fryer is ONLY to remove stuff, never to place stuff. You leave the basket in, and DROP your things into the oil. It will form a coat before it touches the basket and prevent it from sticking.
Depending on the part of the country you're from chicken and waffles is wildly different. In south central Pennsylvania, an area steeped in Dutch and German heritage, we have Pennsylvania Dutch style which is a moist shredded chicken in a gravy (kind of like the sausage gravy and biscuits you tried but with chicken) and we put that on top of waffles.
A little side note: the "Dutch" in "Pennsylvania Dutch" is probably a bastardisation of "Deutsch" - they're Germans, not Dutch. They call themselves "Pennsilfaani Deitsche". The more you know... 🌈⭐
In the 17th and 18th centuries when the Pennsylvania Dutch settled, the word “Dutch” in English basically referred to anyone from Germany, Switzerland, Austria, or the low countries. Thus it’s not a bastardization as much as it’s an outdated term. Of course, Dutch, Deutsche, and Deitsche all come from the same root, and Germany didn’t exist as a unified state until quite recently. Basically anyone who spoke a Germanic language (besides English) we called Dutch back then. It’s only since then that the word Dutch has shifted to refer only to the Netherlands.
@@notanimposterYes, this. It’s also why for example Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character in the original Predator film was named “Dutch”, due to Arnold being from Austria, one of the “Dutch” countries of the day.
As you said, hot sauce isn't traditional on chicken and waffles, but it sounds great, and now I really wanna try Nashville hot chicken and waffles. In spite of the claims that a Harlem club started serving it (I don't want to say "invented," because it would surprise me if home cooks didn't do it first), these days fried chicken and waffles is largely a southern dish, so as a Yankee I'm going to have to make it myself or find one of the few good chicken and waffles restaurants in my area. Also, no problems with using boneless skinless thighs. A lot of restaurants use wings because frying them is so common, but just general pieces of fried chicken - thighs, drumsticks, wings, breast, whatever - is actually preferred, and I've seen places use chicken tenders, and even seen chicken nuggets and frozen waffles for the home cook who is in the mood for chicken and waffles but not in the mood for actually doing any work. (I've tried it, by the way; it's okay, and it scratches the itch, but as you'd expect it's definitely not as good as the real thing.) And finally, the pickle. It's extremely common to serve pickles (usually pickled cucumbers aka gherkins, but sometimes other kinds of pickles) in the South as a palate cleanser. I expect that's why it was originally served with chicken and waffles, but since it's such a good contrast with the sweetness of waffles and syrup, you're definitely eating it the right way now!
Not a food that's common in my part of the country but one of the most famous regional dishes in the US is gumbo from the new Orleans area. I'd love to see you tackle it.
I just made a batch of gumbo over the weekend =) Our family makes it when we have a crowd over. There are so many variations on it, but I go with my grandmas recipe and use my mom's additions, cause it's what I grew up with. For holidays, we often make gumbo and jambalaya together. It always makes me a little sad to see gumbo at restaurants, because usually it's just peppers, sausage and tiny shrimp in a thin broth. =/
Barry, you made that better than some American restaurants I've had the dish at!! That hot sauce looks freaking diecious... or shall I say stonking! If you made that in a restaurant I'd have to fly over to the UK to taste it!
The pickles are a part of another American creation called Nashville Hot Chicken which is something I highly suggest you give a try, very naughty but so ridiculously good... especially since you like paprika
Chicken and waffles comes to us from southern jazz musicians. You play music all night you want savory but those waffles smell so good so it just became a thing.
Chicken and waffles is on our school lunch menu in middle Tennessee. The kids love it! It's not much different than having chicken on a roll with a sweet sauce like honey mustard.
I find when adding battered stuff to a basket. Have the basket in the fryer and then drop in the chicken and shake the basket constantly until the batter has enough time to seal (a few seconds). It fixes that issue of it sticking to the basket. I cook fish and chips often as I'm from New Zealand so fresh battered fish is a common thing and this fixes the issue perfectly! Also the bro rocking the All Blacks!!
Man this video was just great, found myself wearing a grin all through! And having Gary on was a really fun addition! Chicken is very strange with how it cooks, a few weeks ago I was making chicken schnitzel and the recipe said 3 minutes a side, it felt so strange but having cut the thighs in half and hit them with the tenderiser, they all cooked beautifully, and any I had concerns with I just popped back in the pan for another minute or two a side, always so interesting how different methods result in such different products!
Barry here in Southern USA we also make bacon biscuts and gravy, just as good as the sausage version. I just fry up streaky bacon slices, save the bacon grease , add flour of equal amount as bacon grease Saute while stirring for about 3 min. Then add milk, or almond milk until desired thickness. Then salt and pepper to taste. Here we save all our bacon grease, this allowing to make bacon gravy at any time. So yummy! And to season beans.
So there is a little trick that Fried Chicken enthusiast like to do to give the crust more texture, they take a few tablespoons of the wet mixture and mix in the the dry portion. It causes a bit more "crackle", additional texture, to the chicken when fried. But it looks good. I think what you created here is a version of a Nashville Hot Chicken and Waffles ... the pickle was kind of the confirmation of it.
I'm not a Tennessee native, but Nashville Hot chicken is some of the best chicken I've had...and as a spicy lover, it has the spice levels that I look for when I eat spicy food (and I love extremely spicy food), but that sweetness from the maple syrup and/or honey (if you go with the Hot Honey route) is just on it's own level
I've never had pickles with this dish, but you seem to be enjoying it. In my experience, we treat the waffles the same way we do pancakes. Put a pat a butter on them and pour maple syrup on top. Then the chicken goes on it.
top tip, if your battered item sticks to the basket like that, make sure the batter is crisp, turn upside down, then smack with the flat of a wooden spoon, it breaks the bits that stuck ,and it will just drop out of the basket
I would suggest trying the Pennsylvania version as well, it's completely different. Its more of a shredded chicken with gravy type thing. Feels more like a meal than chicken with waffles.
I am well! Thanks for asking. This is a dish that is different in the way that the sound of it does a disgrace to the bliss that your tongue gets when mixing all the flavors and textures.
Next time you have stuff stuck to the bottom like that sometimes if you scrape the underside of the basket it will release a bit easier then trying to get between the basket and contents
One of the most flavorful hot sauce I've ever tasted is the Buldak in the pink bottle, it's powerful AF but there is so much flavor crammed into it. Makes everything taste better
I remember the story about how someone ate chicken and waffles at a Chili's in Dallas/Forth Worth Airport, and then a woman appeared next to her and started talking to nobody about the separation of church and state. Thing is, she didn't know whether the woman was real or a hallucination, because she was in DFW at the time, so it could have been either. That said, apparently she WAS running low on sleep, so it was probably a hallucination on her part. The fact that she had that experience with chicken and waffles, and still loves chicken and waffles, shows how good it is. And that's not even talking about her backside being at World's End, or how she met up a half-deaf knight and a 6'4" grizzly bear at an airport in Arkalina.
Actually Barry the traditional way of frying chicken is in a cast iron pan with about an inch (2.5 centimeters) of oil in the pan flipping the chicken to cook on each side and to brown the breading
Ok that is a beautiful looking plate of chicken and waffles. I was so excited to see you try this one! Nice job! 👏 Also now I too want that little fryer! 😆
Don't know how you would get it, but Pennsylvania scrapple. With ketchup or maple syrup Is very good with a few eggs any style, hash brown potatoes. Toast and a cup of coffee.
That is good, but there is another way of coating the chicken for frying and that is doing Mustard Fried Chicken (Mustard is the bonding agent) for the hot sauce use Texas Pete. I was a doubter at first till I tried it, and now I'm hooked on it plus I don't have to pay a arm & a leg for buttermilk when mustard is dirt cheap. There are plenty of YT videos on how it's done.
You don't put regular hot sauce straight on the chicken, because it makes the breading soggy. That's why you basically make a chili oil (in your case, a chili butter) to spread on there. Stays crispy.
There's this restaurant here where I love ( Trieste, Italy) that's called "odio il brodo" ( which litterally means "I hate broth" 😂) that serves only chicken dishes (fried, oven baked, grilled etc) and one of the dishes are, in fact, fried chicken waffle. What they do, though, is also add popcorn dust on top. My eldest daughter absolutely LOVES it 😂❤ keep up the great work! ❤
I've had fried chicken with maple syrup in a poutine, and I can't get enough of it. But chicken and waffles I can't do, there's just something about the sweet waffles that pushes it over the edge. Combining them though, chicken and potato waffles sounds pretty nice to me.
Side note, don’t use Fry Light or similar on non-stick surfaces as it apparently ruins them. Best thing to do is get a spray bottle and fill it with regular oil yourself.
As an American that's always been skeptical of the dish, somehow the pickle made the whole thing sound better. Yeah, my whole life I've been like, "Why would I want savory chicken and sweet waffles together?" And you said, "Pickles on that too" and my brain went, "OH, that'd be great!"
Pennsylvania Dutch are the Amish, not that Dutch people brought it over. :) I must say the biscuits and gravy were not quite what we eat though yours were...interesting. Good video
Is hot sauce okay? Yes! Do chickens and waffles how you will enjoy. My personal favorite, that i still have dreams of to this day, was a Thai peanut glazed chicken and waffles from a place called Coffee Waffles in North Canton, Ohio, USA. I live in Germany now, and i doubt I'll ever get to have them again. I'm quite the experienced home chef, and i have yet to figure out how to replicate it.
Pancake mix seemed kinda thick to me I would have thinned it out a tad. Everything else looked amazing it always surprises me more places in USA for breakfast don't have this as a staple on there menus.
Tried this last month at a place in Bristol - wasn't overly impressed - they used breast chicken which can be hard to keep moist - would have been better with thighs. And I thought the maple syrup was too sweet. Might have been better with a hot sauce - though I think Franks is a bit sour. Barry, if you're in Bristol - check out the Quay Street Diner.
I want to make chicken and waffle bowls so it's a finger food. Messy, no doubt but should be satisfying with the right waffle batter. I just recently purchased a waffle bowl maker , so I want to go crazy making waffle bowls for most meals. Because I can.
Never heard of doing chicken with the hot sauce on it. But there is something magical when maple syrup and crispy fried chicken get combined. I think the maple complaints the chicken. I will have to try it with the pickles next time.
oh man.. chicken and waffles, one of my all time favorite dishes. WHen you talk about the complete meal, this is it. sweet and savory, spicy and tang.. it's got it all. I had the pleasure of having this at Gladys Knights place and my life has not been complete since then
If you like the pickles with the chicken youd probably like anything Chick-fil-A. They marinade their chicken in pickles juice. And its become a bit of a trend with frozen prepackaged chicken that theyll call southern flavor. I dont really like it but plenty of people do.
Well, the dutch did bring some of that stuff over, the doughnut is a easier type of the "oliebol" the waffle comes from Belgium and made it to the States as the "American Pancakes", that is way fluffier than the dutch ones, who more like a flat one, and fried chicken, well, that is a american dish, but let's keep that for some outher show?
First off not the chicken and waffles expert here but it is like you are combining 2 different iconic american chicken dishes. In my travels I have never had chicken and waffles with hot sauce and pickles... it's just normal "southern fried" chicken (think KFC) and waffles with syrup... Nashville hot chicken is the fried chicken with hot sauce (quiet a specific hot sauce dip for the whole chicken and it's served on white bread with pickles... What you've made seems somewhere in between the two. I mean at the end of the day I think it works... but I am not sure you are getting either a pure chicken and waffles or nashville hot chicken experience. Regardless I would absolutely put a Nashville style chkicken and waffles in my belly!!
You got to marinate the chicken in the buttermilk and no egg. Put you chicken in buttermilk and hot sauce over night then toss in the flour let it sit then Fry.
I loved trying another classic American recipe! Do you have any suggestions for me to try next time?
Here's the biscuits and gravy recipe I tried last time: ruclips.net/video/gbuJIuAhjIQ/видео.html
Try the new england and clam chowder Barry! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
See the Hash Browny at Quay St Diner in Bristol, Barry.
Barry you must try new orleans' gumbo and rice, it is phenomenal, u could also maybe try a crawfish boil but that is if you get those in the uk :)
frito pie, with homemade chili
Cincinnati chili would be a fun one to see what you think, it's contreversial

I used to work in a restaurant that serves chicken and waffles, but the syrup had chili flakes in it as a kind of hot syrup, and it was really good

I'm a Brit living in Japan, and there's a few places here that do chicken and waffles. Loce sweet and savoury together.
The pickles is a thing with Nashville style hot chicken.

At 01:25. Barry states, "I've got chicken thighs !!!" OK mate you don't have to go on about it !!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Pecan waffles. Chocolate waffles.
Nice to see your mate again, food looks delish. Can I just use super market waffles, or are they a different thing?
Best hot sauce I have is, melt butter into Frank's with garlic powder. Heat til butter is melted. You'll love it! 😊
Chicken Thigh Gang represent! They are by far the tastiest part of the bird perfect for making fried chicken.

I have a plug outlet in my house (USA) and only works if the switch on the other side of the room is flipped on
I would suggest that maybe marinating the chicken in the buttermilk with more seasoning added.
Delicious

First off not the chicken and waffles expert here but it is like you are combining 2 different iconic american chicken dishes. In my travels I have never had chicken and waffles with hot sauce and pickles... it's just normal "southern fried" chicken (think KFC) and waffles with syrup... Nashville hot chicken is the fried chicken with hot sauce (quiet a specific hot sauce dip for the whole chicken and it's served on white bread with pickles... What you've made seems somewhere in between the two. I mean at the end of the day I think it works... but I am not sure you are getting either a pure chicken and waffles or nashville hot chicken experience. Regardless I would absolutely put a Nashville style chkicken and waffles in my belly!!
You got to marinate the chicken in the buttermilk and no egg. Put you chicken in buttermilk and hot sauce over night then toss in the flour let it sit then Fry.
You're missing out if you don't eat the bones in a chicken! They taste amazing and the crunch you get when crushing them in your mouth is fun
