Kettle fried chicken


 
Ok...so I did this yesterday with another brand of batter. I spiced it up to my liking. Because there is no "oil" you have to add some. I sprayed evoo on mine as it cooked. Next time, and there will be one, I will brush lightly with melted butter.

On....

Plated with some home made red skin on mashers and white wine gravy. Side of roasted green beans.

I also took the skin off, maybe if I left it on it would have provided enough juice/fat to the coating without having to spray evoo on it??
 
What an Awesome Concept!!! Crispy fried texture on your chicken, without the frying Grease!!! Did you detect any smoke taste to the chicken? Anyways, I think I want to try this too, maybe with a full cut up chicken! Thanks for the post! Looks very tasty!

That chicken looks phenomenal. So good in fact that I'm making this tomorrow night. I've got a whole cut up chicken soaking in a buttermilk brine right now. I couldn't find the Louisiana brand mix but did find House Autry mix. It has the same exact directions as the Louisiana so it should work fine. Hope mine turns out as good as yours looks. Thanks again!

Don - the House Autry breaders are all great, especially the seafood and the medium hot. Do they still carry the biscuit mix down your way? That's excellent stuff!

Yeah, we love House Autry breaders. The Medium Hot is great for fried oysters...but "biscuit mix"? Come on, Jon. No self respecting Southerner uses a mix to make biscuits.

I just had to say this was great, I would never though of cooking it on the grill, but it works, I also used the autry breader as its all i could find, thanks so much, has to be healthier than takeout even with spraying it with a quick shot of oil..

Well I've looked and looked but I can't find batter mix to save my life, I guess Canadians aren't into southern fried chicken, so I'm going from scratch. Trying this out tomorrow I'll let you know how it works.
 
If you just want a crust Bob we swede´s always dip in a 3 step mix:
1) flour(with salt/pepper mixed in it)
2) beaten egg
3) bread crumps/corn meal

Dont really know how it will turn out on the kettle though.

But in a pan butter fryed its fantastic!
 
Mr. Allingham, I love this site. Don't know what I'd do without it.

Al,
Never would have thought to try this. Thanks! Looks great and now I have something to do with my Saturday afternoon.

Thats what I normally do with fish when I pan fry them. Going to try a buttermilk recipe.I'll throw the chicken in the buttermilk and herbs tonight and bread them just before I throw them on the kettle.

You are right Jim, I was thinking one of those rackes standing in a pan to catch the drippings would work great. I may be making these tomorrow. :cool:
