Also, I think it is important to make sure the fillets are not overly thick and that they are even, no thick spots and each about the same.

    I love cod and chips and I must say that I learned some things here, in fact a number of things. The way you rinse, blanch, the potatoes, let them rest and firm up in the fridge before frying and double fry them at 150' and 180' is quite the thing and I cannot wait to try it. The Vodka in the batter to bring out the crunch, never would have thought of that one. Salting the fish and letting it rest an hour before frying to get the water out and firm up the fish, I know that will help. I'm looking forward to doing a batch tomorrow. However my idea of tartar sauce is completely different than yours and I do know what I like. Mushy peas, eh, they might have their place but not necessary with fish and chips in my opinion. But I will never question the British method of making fish and chips. I know they know what they are doing. I just wish I could find those potatoes in American. Never seen them around. And the beef drippings, never seen them around, but we have lard. Might try that.

    I have to try making this exactly as in this video. I am so hungry after seeing this! A family from England ran an English style fish and chip shop located around the corner from me for many years. I was devastated when they closed to retire. My mother who lives an hour's drive away was so disappointed they closed, too. It was big news in this little town. The food was so good that there were lineups down the street on Fridays at this place. People drove in from other towns and cities just to eat there. It was an institution around here for decades. I miss it so much. Nobody anywhere has ever been able to make fish and chips like they did. This video has inspired me to make English style fish and chips myself. I must satisfy these cravings for it.

    Guys, to all who are saying the crunching sound is fake it is, but bare with me. If you are syncing the crunch sounds with his bites, of course you will find it odd because the crunch sounds are for the chip-o-meter and not for when he is munching on the chips. I was thinking the same thing but then it came to my mind that such a channel wouldn't make such an obvious mistake. The proof is at 9:55 the sound is synced with the meter again, but when he munches at 9:53, there is a crunching sound but it's natural. So if you go back and watch the video syncing the sound effect with every point being added to the score, the world would make a lot more sense to you, cheers.

    My family always rendered beef fat for all our Deep Frying (Grandmother grew up in Scotland) but I had to change over to Canola Oil due to my cholesterol levels.
    We never did the fridge part but did peal the red potatoes and rinsed them before putting them in the fryer.
    I think we didn't do the fridge route because it would be too easy to just have fries at any time.
    We didn't like the taste of white potatoes but we did and I still use 'Malt Vinegar' but we were not that much in to fish.
    They don't put vinegar on fries in the US, we would always bring our own to put on the fries we would buy at the fast food joints.
    What my parents did was make a HUGE batch of fries and then add salt & vinegar to personal taste and then we would take a handful of fries and wrap them in bologna.
    You then dunked that in to ketchup. Eat & Repeat. It's great for lining your stomach with grease before going out for a night of drinking.
    Of course a kid I didn't know that and my dad didn't explain it until I could legally drink alcohol (Age 18) but I didn't drink until I was 25 or so by personal choice.

      Until then, you might want to search out potato chips cooked in lard. They're especially popular in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. There are various options, but you'll probably have to buy most of them online (instead of locally): Dieffenbach's 'Old Fashion Kettle Chips', Gibble's 'Home Style' Potato Chips, Good's 'Original' and 'Home Style' Potato Chips, Grandma Utz 'Handcooked' Potato Chips, Kay and Ray's 'Regular Potato Chips' and 'Dark Potato Chips', Moyer's Potato Chips, Stehman's Homestyle Kettle Cooked Potato Chips, Zerbe's Kettle Cooked Potato Chips, and Gold'N Krisp Potato chips (cooked in soybean oil and lard; made in Massillon, Ohio). You may have the best luck finding Grandma Utz 'Handcooked' Potato Chips locally. If you have any interest in finding Moyer''s, Stehmman's or Zerbe's potato chips, then search out 'Marmel Industries'. While Lay's Classic potato chips have these nutritional facts: Total Fat 10g, Saturated Fat 1.5g, Trans Fat 0g; Grandma Utz has these: Total Fat 8g, Saturated Fat 3g, Trans Fat 0g, Polyunsaturated Fat 1g, Monounsaturated Fat 3.5g.

    Oily fish and chips is usually caused by using a small deep fat fryer. The small amount of oil isn't enough to maintain a good cooking temperature so the fish and chips soak up the oil. Chip shops use much bigger fryers that can easily maintain the best temperature ( 8 gallons UK/ 9 gallons US).
