  • I attend KFC cooking school and learn how to make chicken like the colonel does. No luck getting the secret herbs and spices recipe; but I did manage to trap myself in a plastic bag, make a hair net look good, and bread some delicious and edible chicken. #NotSponsored

    I worked at a KFC for 2 years a long time ago. I was told by the owner(who owned many of them) only 2 ppl actually know the original recipe. I did notice the 2 seasonings packs they use for the flour were made in 2 dif places.(Only labeled as Original Seasoning & Milk and Egg mixture) And u dump a 3lb box of salt in the flour for each batch of breading. The use of a pressure fryer makes a huge difference. Although the one on here is an older style one, believe it or not. Wish I knew the whole recipe. That Original Recipe has always been my favorite. So good.

      I watched the training videos and the training video at the Original KFC in Corbin Kentucky. You all forgot the browning process on this video. Plus according to Colonel Sanders the chicken should be loaded in the famous buckets a certain way. Which was not covered in your video.

    I make my own fried chicken (6 piece boneless thighs).
    I brine my seasoned chicken in salted water for at least 3 hours. Take it out to drip dry.
    Create a beaten egg with cream and ground hot Indian pepper for a wet coating. Create a dry coating of 1cup flour and 1/2 cup corn starch, 1 tbsp white pepper, 1 tbsp msg, 2 tsp onion salt, 2 tsp ground thyme. Dip in wet then dip in dry and let sit for 20 minutes on parchment paper. Fry in peanut/vegetable oil for 11-12 minutes or light golden brown and crispy.

      So if it's also at your place then may be global phenomenon. Piece size have been doubled to 20 per bird, that means initially when. KFC launched in India, they used to have 8-10 pieces from bird. Huge chunks of meat. Now it's half.of that. Taste ...slated fried chicken.

    I worked there as a cook in 1993. Our pressure fryers didn't look like that. They would crank the racks up/down. Did they show you how they marinate the crispy chicken? And use those fryer drippings to make the gravy? Man I remember when we'd close, it would be really late before we left because we would get that kitchen area spotless. Lots of cleaning and degreasing floors. Ah the old days...

    Guys il make it simple for you. The MOST important thing to get the taste of fried chicken is the oil, no matter what anybody tells you. Im not saying the breading doesnt play its part, cos it does but its not more important than the oil.
    I remember reading somewhere that kfc breading was analysed and there were only 4 ingredients that went into the breading mix, black pepper, white pepper, salt and msg. Personally, i think this is the breading recipe.

    Back in 1973 we cooked using these scalding hot large pots that we had to fill, cook and empty. Carrying them full of hot grease and chicken across greasy slippery floors to empty the chicken onto draining racks.
    We dipped the chicken in an egg and milk pre dip prior to coating it.
    Timed the cooking by looking at the wall clock.
    In between cooks we did other work. Sometimes we would get busy and overcook and get crispy chicken. Which customers actually liked.

    I remember in the late 80's, KFC had HOT & Spicy chicken actually served in a big bucket. THAT WAS THE BEST CHICKEN I EVER TASTED. We drove faithfully over 40 miles just for a couple buckets in the long station wagon monthly. I can still see the crumbs on the backseat. They were definitely the days....😢 Now Extra crispy taste like my blind grandmother made it without salt. Lacking seriously taste. Even Pizza Hut changed their recipe. The weakest pizza by far. Remember the crust tasted like butter and garlic? Nowadays I'll stick to frozen Walmart pizzas and sprinkle extra garlic and drips of butter on top and totally butter the bottom crust before popping that baby in the oven. Wow how franchises changed. Totally disappointed in KFC & Pizza Hut. If it ain't broken, don't fix it......

You would literally have to clean and sanitize the drop hook every half an hour at this rate. Really weird. Also guide who appears to be a manager not being able to remember the hold times on the chicken.

    Ok, people! It's apparent from all of the comments I've read that not all KFCs prepare their chicken before frying, the same way! And it is also apparent that the chicken was prepared a whole lot differently in the past than it is now! So can we stop arguing with each other about the way it's supposed to be prepared and accept the fact that it is prepared differently, depending on everything, from which restaurant is preparing it to what country that restaurant is located! No need for angry responses and name calling!😁

      You got it. I worked for KFC as a cook and as a store manager for 10 years before finally finishing college and getting the heck out. Long enough to go through four changes to the way that we prepared chicken. My biggest concern is that this cook was cross contaminating his fry station, drop hook and fryer buttons with raw chicken juice and flour, and on video no less.

      *Omari Shields* back when I worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken before it became KFC and they started changing things to cut corners, we used a Buttermilk batter and self rising flour. (dry off the water on the chicken with paper towels, roll the chicken in the flour, shake off the excess then dip the chicken in the buttermilk batter then back into the 11 herbs and spices flour mixture. Shake off the excess and let the chicken sit about 5 minutes so that the flour would not come off in the Pig Lard while we cooked it. Plus we used Pig Lard for the oil. There are a whole lot that we had to do from scratch, real potatoes, handmade coleslaw, homemade biscuits plus the chicken cracklins from the deep fry was crunched up in cheesecloth and added to the water and 11 herbs and spices flour with chicken powder stock for the chicken gravy. That was when the chicken was still up to a higher standard than it is now. You can't get people who know how to cook, they may know how to push a button or set a timer but that is about it.
