Notes
You can use whatever oil you prefer. Â I typically use bacon grease but peanut oil or vegetable oil works as well! Â
This has to be the best chicken sandwich ever. No comparison to any fast food chain or restaurant for that matter. This is so flavorful and juicy. Not too salty in my opinion. This seasoning is BOMB. You seriously outdid yourself with this combo. Delicious! Thank you for the awesome content and not making us jump thru hoops to get the recipes!
