Instructions
Mix Batter
In a large bowl, combine your buttermilk with Blonde Beard’s Buffalo Sauce.
Marinate
Cover all 4 pieces of chicken with the batter, seal the container and leave to marinate in your fridge for up to 24 hours.
Mix Flour Mixture
Combine all ingredients of your flour mixture in a separate bowl. Add a couple tablespoons of the marinade to your flour and stir to combine. It will be clumpy, and that’s A-ok. That comes into play later.
Coat
One at a time, add your chicken into your batter, coating very well and evenly. Drive the flour into all the pieces of the chicken to get a really thick crust, the messier looking the better.
Fry
Slowly place each piece of chicken in oil 3-5 min/side. Ready when internal temperature is 165 and batter is crispy golden brown. Remove and dry on a paper towel for ultimate crunch.
Toast
Heat a skillet over medium/low and toast your buns baby.
Dressing
While chicken is frying, blend together Blonde Beard’s Buttermilk Dressing. Fresher is better.
Toss
Toss fried chicken pieces into Blonde Beard’s Buffalo Sauce. Really coat them well.
Sandwich
Place a heaping, healthy shmear of Blonde Beard’s Buttermilk Dressing on both sides of your bun, place crispy, golden chicken between said buns, place some dill pickles on top of your chicken and enjoy the carnivorous fruits of your labor, friends.
