      Now try steak the same way: Same smoke duration - same buttermilk bath duration - same seasoned flower/corn starch mix - deep fried.
      May be a good way to make cheaper cuts of meat way better, like the various ways you've attempted to make decent steaks out of I-round.

When he experiments with different cooking methods he always does a control with the standard method and tastes them side by side. I trust him with just about every recipe out there.

My only issue is I couldn't get enough of the mix to STAY on the chicken when frying. Still got some good crunch out of it.. but man, it was great. Smoked for 2 hours at 180 with mesquite.

    Guga, GuGa, GUUUGAAA! You forgot the baking powder, bro! Two teaspoons of baking powder in the 50/50 mix is going to take that to the next level. As you know sodium bicarbonate is a leavening agent. It makes crusts fluff up by introducing air pockets as it cooks. A little baking powder will make it easier to bite, the crust won't come off in big chunks, and it's a very pleasant mouth feel without giving up any crispiness. Give it a try! :D

      I tried this and while it did make the crust fluff up it also absorbed alot of the oil and burned my spices way faster, making the batter burn before the chicken could cook. I still tried a piece that was okay and it was so oily and tasted burnt that i had to throw it all out. Idk what I did wrong, was my oil too hot or did i put too much/not enough baking powder? Im ready to give it another shot but this time ill be making a smaller batch to test it out.

    Fun fact: doing an egg wash BEFORE your corn starch flour mix will crisp it up EVEN MORE and give you all those little extra crispy bits you love from chicken chains. Also, always season your CHICKEN not your flour mix (a lot of spices, like Paprika and Garlic Powder will burn in the hot oil and NOT taste good). If you put anything in your flour mix it should just be salt and pepper.

    Guga, i'm doing this recipe tomorrow for the first time, i substituted smoked salt for all the salt in the recipe instead of smoking the chicken, will see how it turns out. I home smoked the salt myself for about 30-40 hours (i honestly don't know since it sat in my smoker on the top rack for a month, soaking up the fire as it burned down each time i used it). The salt is incredibly smoky and you can really taste it in the herbs, and I used smoked paprika from the store as well for even more smoke flavor. Hopefully this works almost as good as doing it the way you did. Thinking of dry brining the chicken with smoke salt for 6 hours first before brining in buttermilk overnight when I have time later this week.

    First, I love the channel(s)-I'm a huge fan! Congrats on your well-deserved success!
    So, I have a few questions:
    1. In this video, you mix the 12 herbs and spices and grind them in the Mortar and pestle, then add them to the flour and cornstarch mixture and coat the chicken. In another video, instead of mixing the 'KFC seasoning mixture' into the flour and cornstarch, you coat the raw chicken with it and marinate it overnight in the buttermilk. Which method was the winner?
    2. You indicate that a 50/50 mix of flour and cornstarch was the winner; neither video tells how much of each. This is more important when mixing the 'KFC seasoning mixture' into the flour and cornstarch to get the correct ratio.
    3. In the pressure frying method you indicate to bring the oil/beef tallow or peanut oil to 350°, then cook for approximately 2 minutes, then put the lid on and cook on high pressure for 7 minutes. I'm assuming you then use the quick pressure release method but it doesn't say. Can you please confirm?
    Thanks.

    Yes, its correct to use Baking Powder.

    Rice flour and corn starch is my go to mixture. And adding a bit of pickle juice to the ButterMilk brine is nice, too.
    I've been experimenting with alcoholic seltzer/egg/flour wet dredge as well with varying results.
    (Baking powder or baking soda helps with crispness, too.)

    This is an amazing video. There is also one more thing I have always been curious which is double coating. Some videos I have watched which they said, the chicken will taste better if you coat the chicken with the flour again which means, once you coat the chicken with the flour, you dip it in cold water or the buttermilk and coat it again. There are also some videos which will fry the chicken twice which apparently will make the chicken crispier. They will usually fry the chicken and let it cool and then will fry it in oil again. I would really appreciate it if you could experiment this

    Guga! I recommend adding spices to buttermilk and maybe even keep the chicken there overnight - the more you add spices to the flour the darker the crust (spices burn much fater than the dough). Bigger risk to end up raw chicken with burned crust (happened here :D). LOFFE :)

    Hi everyone
    1. Is it better to do this process for chicken strips?
    Buttermilk + Seasonings
    Place into a regular flour
    Into the wet batter (egg, club soda, salt)
    Place into the seasoned flour (same in the first step seasonings)
    Then deep fry at 5-7 mins
    2. Should i let it rest or is it okay to fry right away in this method?
    3. Any tips how to make it tender and juicy, a bit crunchy and has a cafe like coating?
    Thank you
