You all need to get up and go to work or something or I'm gonna start making fudge with the pan I use to fry chicken wings in ROTFLMAO. Now who fry's chicken wings in a pan? You must not be from Buffalo.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing yesterday Rick, someone needs to buy him a deep fryer

Best Southern Fried Chicken I ever had was made by a neighbor lady who had many generations of Virginia roots.  She made it in a cast iron skillet on the stove in Crisco or lard, I can't remember which, probably the first, and then she would lay it on paper towels to drain.  I was a kid and I still remember it as the best.

Hi Sly,  if you were a kid when she was doing this, it was lard.  Just sayin.   

Who are you calling an old goat, Sam (I am)?    You just may be right.

LOL, just old,  no goat!

Lard does have its place, but I think Crisco shortening tastes better with Chicken. Dipping the chicken in buttermilk before dredging is also required, as is the cast-iron skillet.  The warden does a quite tasty oven-fry method, but for the real deal, gotta be Crisco in a skillet on a stove.

Don't forget a good brine soak before you start. 

Dahh, not in the south I am from.

+1  and personal tastes set aside, lard, not Crisco.  best fried in animal fat, vegetables were meant to boil or steam.  Nothing like a healty dose of serious stick to your veins fat & cholesterol for fryin!   

Yeah, and like I said, I like lard. But to me, for fried chicken pig fat just imparts a slightly odd taste that vegetable shortening doesn't. But I've used both.

Lard is good but I actually prefer the old white Crisco in the can.  With a couple of extra livers on the side too.

Call for an old goat around here and 2/3 of the posters will think you are calling them.

I think that is still the way they do it at Sylvia's in NYC. they swear by cast iron.  We have a cast iron
dutch oven, with a glass lid, that the wife uses for pot roast.  Had to convince her it is not a good chile pot(too much
acid in the tomatoes....).

had a Fallen Angel robusto at lunchtime, and it was much harsher than it's toro counterpart.  was surprised at the difference in the 2.  really like the toro, but not so much the robusto.

We definitely agree on the cast iron skillet for frying.  Anyone who tries to argue that point has never cooked in a good seasoned iron skillet.
