Kentucky Fried Chicken
Worked there when I was a kid, still like the taste of the chicken but damn they have to be the most expensive fast food restaurant in America...
They used to have decent sized pieces of chicken now they are small... Anybody else notice? Probably most of you won't eat the shit right? |
Have never eaten at a KFC.

Very slow service at times. They also run out of certain items. Sides are subpar.
|
They are ok, but i prefer Churchs and Popeyes nowdays.
BTW, alot of Fast Food has gotten expensive. You can spend 7 or 8 bucks on a meal at McDonalds. Thats nearly as much as an Applebees or Chilis meal. |
Yeah it use to be good. I still like the famous bowls. We eat there probably about 3 times a year though.
We have a southern place here called J's Place best chicken and waffle joint in town. We go there if we want fried chicken. I go for the greens and fried cabbage. |

KFC and Popeye's have pretty much priced themselves out of all sanity, so I don't go to them anymore. If I need a fast food chicken fix, Chick-Fil-A is my destination of choice.

Can't eat there no more. But they are expense.
|
The qaulity difference of food from one KFC to another is far greater than the quakity differnce to be found at other chains, in my experience.
|
Maybe once a year or two
|
You definitely need a coupon to make KFC competitive in the marketplace. Otherwise it's stupid expensive for what it is.
And yes, the pieces have gotten smaller. It's been quite a while since I've eaten there, but I was wondering if it was pigeon pieces. |
Pan fried chicken at home FTW
|
Ya I KFC.
|
Worked there for a winter as a kid too. The whole freaking place was a grease trap.
|
I avoid KFC like LJS.
Back in the day I used to order their chicken fried platters which were like on sale on Tuesdays for super cheap. No more of that shit now though. |
2 pcs Mixed Snack with 3 wings and 3 hot sauces, Go Chicken Go.
|
I like both KFC & Popeyes. Popeyes mashed potatoes & gravy is the bomb

Back in the day that big pressure cooker would hold 75 gallons of oil it seemed and they had a cool filtering process that actually took those burnt flour residue and caught it in this cloth filter and it hardened and looked like fudge in a pan... That is what the gravy is made out of.. |
The only thing I can stand at KFC is their slaw. When I'm smoking ribs, I will head over there and grab some of that at times. As far as their chicken, not my thing.
|
Love the taste of the original recipe but the last several times I had it, it seemed greasy. Cole slaw and gravy is good too.
|
Can't beat the $1.99 chicken fried steak dinner on Wednesdays.

The Patton Oswalt bit on the KFC bowls is priceless.

They don't use Mayo in it, it is made with Miracle Whip, Sugar and Vinegar |
If I'm going for a clogging my artery type of chicken fix then Popeye's is my choice.
Pretty bummed there are none in Topeka. |

This is Todd Wilburn's KFC cole slaw recipe. He's pretty good at nailing it. His Big Mac special sauce is spot on.

https://www.facebook.com/note.php?no...16252175065862 If you've ever seen a clone recipe for KFC Cole Slaw floating around on the Internet it probably looks like this. That's because this replica has become one of the most copied and pasted recipes from my first book, Top Secret Recipes. So, to stake claim to a recipe that's rarely sourced as a TSR original, here's the secret formula to clone the world's best slaw. 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup milk 1/4 cup buttermilk 2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper 8 cups finely chopped cabbage (about 1 head) 1/4 cup shredded carrot (1 medium carrot) 2 tablespoons minced onion 1. Be sure cabbage and carrots are chopped up into very fine pieces (about the size of rice). 2. Combine the mayonnaise, sugar, milk, buttermilk, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl and beat until smooth. 3. Add the cabbage, carrots, and onion, and mix well. 4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Serves 10 to 12. |
I never go there anymore either. I don't know when they became so expensive, but it seemed like there was a time that place was fairly cheap.

I can eat this locally for 8 bucks (with homemade banana pudding included). So no, I don't eat KFC.

They are too ****ing expensive but thats because they can get away with it. I like Popeyes and Church's wayyyyy better. Popeyes has the best Red Beans and Rice on earth.

I was like 14 when I worked there and we would use a 50lb bag of cabbage to make it so the ingredients below besides the cabbage has to be in real small amounts I remember Miracle whip , cabbage (a few dark green leaves for color) some onion, carrots , regular apple cider vinegar, Sugar... a little salt Thats all I remember... |

I ate there as a kid with my grandfather on a regular basis, but haven't been to one in years. Somewhere around the time the chicken went from a nice and dry covering to a greasy mess they lost the occasional bucket for the game or family gathering business as well.
The local KFC went out of business a few years ago and I'm not sure anyone even complained. |
I haven't eaten at a KFC in 20 years. Last time the skin and batter slid off like a goopy mess and the mac and cheese tasted awful.
I love Pollo Compero 1st and Popeye's 2nd if in the mood for fried chicken. |
Love that chicken at Popeyes!
|
LOL....

I'm a fan of KFC. I don't eat it very often from a health perspective and from a convenience perspective, but when I go there I'm like Winnie the Pooh with a honey pot.
|
I went to KFC last week.
Normally eat Popeyes because on Tuesday you can get 9 pieces dark or mixed for 4.99 no bullshit. I like the original KFC recipe but **** a bucket is like 18.00 WTF? |

I don't care for sweet tea either or grits. Blah.

Boston Market's pretty pricey, too. Had a 1/4 rotisserie chicken with two sides and a 16 oz Coke Zero for lunch and it was over $10.
Sure was good, though. |
|
KFC is absolutely disgusting.

Ya I am not from the south. Tea isn't suppose to be sweet.

They have a buffet at the one here. $7.99 for all you can eat. It's -OK-, but they have some killer peach cobbler on the buffet :)
