What's too high? What's too low? Let us know here how we did in our rankings.
Chick-fil-a Obv the best lol. (One like is one free meal at Chick-Fil-A)
Kfc is obviusly the best!
KFC should be higher they’re not that bad
Bojangles is the best in every way. WAY TOO LOW!
You were right about that Krispy Krunchy chicken, it is delicious.
"The problem with Popeye's chicken is that it tastes like chicken."
You should be afraid if chicken *doesn't* taste like chicken.
Yes
Ummm yes the floor here is made of floor
Popeye's has small pieces of chicken, decent though. Chic-fila, okay. The quality of Church's chicken fell off, no flavor. KFC does not ensure that chicken is thoroughly cooked. El Pollo Local's chicken is DRY. Although there are now few franchises, Golden Bird and Pioneer Chicken are not as good as they used to be used to be back in the day. Crispy chicken does not necessarily need to have cayenne pepper on it. Have found "dough-like, uncooked" pieces at KFC. Look at your chicken before leaving people!
hahahahahahhahah.
im the guy 123 but the channel when they see Popeyes chicken is: Ah yes, the floor here is made of *Black Hole*
My favorite is los pollos hermanos because they have a little extra smt on the menu 🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️
Haha
Get great chicken and pick up your blue meth all in one convenient stop! LMAO!!!!
Gotta love those chilean spices
@@johnwilliamson5501 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha
The problem with these fast food outlets is that they are franchises and the quality varies depending on how well run the individual franchise is run. I have recently given up on KFC as the quality of food in my three local outlets has declined rapidly in the last couple of years.
I was a cook at Bojangles. I think we were one of the good ones. I still love their food!
Thank you for your service! 🫡
my homie says church's chicken only tastes delicious because you risk being shot in the parking lot of every location and the survival instincts kick in lmao
I live in Indonesia. We have Church's Chicken here except it's renamed to Texas Chicken since the majority of people are Muslim. What the woman said in the video is correct. It's quite inconsistent
Popeye's is right behind them. Arm up
mY hoMiE SaYs
I just had church's Texas tenders yesterday. We have a popeyes to but I prefer church's & yes chic-fil-a is better than all
@@jz4163 its not "renamed" it originated from texas and they call it Texas chicken in all other countries outside the United States
Where is Los Pollos Hermanos? Its located in New mexico and the Manager Gus is a real
Nice guy. I highly recommend
?
Brendo if u dont get the reference my guy then i cant help you 🥴
It's like their chicken has crack in it.
We use to have one in my city, miss the food so much!!!!
@TheDodicat no we don't mine was on the other side of the US
I've been a huge fan of Popeye's Chicken for years now. I liked the fact that they had sides that many other chicken places didn't have - specifically, cajun rice and jambalaya. During, and after, the pandemic, the locations near me (Southern CA) dropped these two sides from their menus. I'm pretty sure this change is company-wide too. I'm still staying with them, but I really miss those two sides. I'm hoping Popeye's management will come to its senses and bring them back.
You do know Bojangles had the same sides... but when it comes to a Chicken Sandwich... no one does it better than Chick Fil A.... Sorry, I love Popeyes, but not the Sandwich, it is on the same par as Bojangles.... Good, but Zaxbys is better but no one beats Chick Fil A! Period Best tasting Chicken Sandwich of all time and I can't even make one that good myself!
Popeyes chicken 🐔 Good stuff
I agree with you on the Cajun Rice, the Jambalaya, The Sides and their normal Fried Chicken... just not the Sandwich, it's not that good! They Skimped on it! Just my thought!
@@dublindog8038 that was half the reason to go there in the first place... hate to hear this.
the chix is great but the sides are HORRIBLE !
Nice to know I'm not the only one who thought KFC was declining, I thought it was a change in my taste buds. I would love to be able to have some of the chicken Saunders actually sold. It sounds delicious from what I have heard.
That said, I still think it's better than Churches. Went there once, not going back.
KFC used to be great but now I can smell the salt in my pee for like 3 days after I eat it.
10 years ago KFC was great. 5 years ago it was OK. today it is consistently bad I quit going. Recently tried Popeyes after years of not going there, it was very good but you have to get it right after it comes out of the fryer. I think that is true of all of them.
@manny022 When you get Churches chicken wrap it in 5 or 6 napkins and squeeze and watch the oil run out of the napkins. after that it isn't so bad.
Agreed, and I think Popeyes is declining.... compared to Bojangles.... but for the best Chicken Sandwich, nothing will ever and I've had them all, will ever beat Chick Fil A
From my experience KFC's chicken is almost always a soggy mess, and Church's chicken is far too salty. Popeye's is the way to go. Never had Bojangles.
The more I learn to cook, the less I want to eat out.
I seldom ever eat out I know that when I cook at home everything is sanitized and hygene is very important too me!! in a restaurant I dont overly trust them
@@v4v819 #1 Not everyone is as rich as you, either. If you have time to type nonsense, you have time to learn to cook. The only difference between the rich and the poor is how they spend their free time. I spend mine wisely, and you piss yours into the wind. But, remember, you and I were issued the same 24 hours every day.
As for your absurd comment at the end, you have just as much privilege as I do. Unless you are too stupid or lazy to have leveraged the privelege you have into more.
My original comment still stands, and you still fail.

@@charlotteebel5586 You point out a great thing I did not notice. He equated cooking for myself as something I do "because I am rich." I thought people ate out, "because they were rich." When did eating at home become a sign of wealth?
As for dealing with the likes of James Appel, that is part of my business training. I do self-directed continuing education every morning, that includes watching a CZcams video on a topic of choice. And then I make a comment; hopefully something encouraging to someone else reading.
Dealing with the ignorant haters like James Appel is part of my business training. He does not realize it, but he is helping me develop my skills at dealing with the public. He would be totally offended to know that, in my opinion, he works for me in this capacity.
I agree with KFC being inconsistent. Sometimes I get good chicken, other times it's too rubbery, or bad. It used to be good, but in recent years I think they're letting franchises have to much control on mixing.
You are not the only one, mate. Also, the rice is too few. The servers often reason this is because of pandemic blablabla... They just do not deliver consistent chicken. Imagine Gordon Ramsay coming there, what will he find and say.
I think that’s why a few in my area shut down or were turned into Taco Bell’s a few years ago.
My problem with KFC lately is that it tastes like bone marrow. They are cutting it differently than they used to. I'll specifically go to Popeyes now and skip them, and once you lose customers, you'll usually never get them back. Great job of saving money KFC, it will be your downfall.
I agree. When it is done right, it is so good, but when it's not it can be disappointing.
Their chicken has been inconsistent.
The narrator to these videos is great. Easy to listen to, concise and snappy in her delivery, and the rankings make sense.
I'm from Louisiana close to where Mr. Copland built one of his Popeyes chicken restaurants. On the corner of a busy highway. I remember in the 80S the line would be 3 blocks or better of people waiting to come inside. And the drive thru had to have police manage the traffic. It was worth the wait. Thank you Mr. Al Copland for all you've been for New Orleans and Chicken lovers ❤
I knew Al Copeland when he was night manager at father-in-laws donut shop in Houma. We had a place called Danny's fried chicken where & Al would get a half of Danny's every night on his way to work. He was always trying to imitate their recipe until he finally copied it. then he moved to New Orleans & got hooked up with the right people & started Popeye's. They used to be awesome. But the size of the chicken has fallen off a cliff for the prices they charge.
Ain't that good for real
“All around the country”
I must live in a small city never bearded of champs chicken
Champs chix...nobody ever heard of that thing, not to champy is it???
I tried almost about every restaurant that are its gas stations champs chicken is not undercooked its crispy for me
It's safe to say that this narrator has probably eaten chicken a whopping three times in her life.
Comparing Wing Stop to Popeyes is simply mind boggling!
Shes full of herself when she said pollo locos mac n cheese sucks...its the best off that weird greasy menu.
Michael Jefferson canes ain’t even number one smh she messing up
Michael L you do realise she probably doesn’t even stand by the script and is literally told what to say and how to say it? lmfao
Wing stop garbage wing street is so much better
Atheons Spec what 🤦🏿♂️
Bonchon makes the absolute best chicken wings. The double frying doesn’t make the wings greasy at all, but keeps the chicken moist and juicy with a perfectly crisp exterior. We always order extra because the wings are just as crispy and delicious the next day. They also make a kimchi coleslaw that’ll knock your socks off! I 100% recommend you try it if you get the chance, your only regret will be that you didn’t try them sooner 👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent recap review video
For god sake I watched this before bed and now I am hungry
Me too😋
Eat your slippers
Apparently they’ll taste like champs chicken
Why are you seeking the Lord's consideration? Are you inviting Him to dinner?
Lol
This monotone, script-reading narrator is putting me to sleep
Sounds very hot to me.
Nothing monotone about the voice at all!
Well now I know how to fix my sleep schedule
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
brentloud - That’s no narrator - it’s a millennial ‘bot’.
Thank you for sharing.
I know you don't mention about chicken that is served at buffet restaurant, but I love the chicken at Golden Corral, whether it's fried or baked, the chicken is done just right,I have never had a bad piece of chicken ever!
This is the shadiest video I’ve ever seen and it’s amazing.
Really, oh really...lmfao
Part of my job is to fry and bake chicken - 8-piece, whole birds, and tenders. Not for anybody in the video, but for somebody you've heard of. The secret is to consume the chicken as soon as possible after it's prepared. All of it is pretty good right out of the fryer. All of it declines in quality the longer it sits in the warmer. Two hours is about it for hot fried chicken. similar results for baked.
After that, the most important thing is how well they take care of their frying oil. Some use the same oil for weeks at a time. It should be changed every few days. It should also be filtered after every couple big frys. Putting just a minimal mount of breading on the chicken really helps keep the oil clean(extra crispy chicken is the pits. Often lousy chicken disguised with too much breading.) Too much flour accelerates the degradation of the oil. Some say cotton seed or peanut oil is the best, but soybean oil makes good chicken as well. I don't know but I believe Chik-Fil-A has such a large market acceptance because they change their oil WAY more often than anybody else.
Chicken should always be fresh, never frozen. More consistent quality that way. The only exception being some cooked, then frozen wingettes are quite good reheated in the oven or fryer.
bon appetit..........
You sound very concerned about the quality of what you prepare 👍!
Thanks for the insight.
Wish I could eat your fried chicken, I agree with everything you said. You can tell it's old grease and even taste the fish they fried in the same grease.
Oil should be changed every day like good Korean restaurants do.
@@rodneyjhackenflash4865 Have any idea what that would cost?
🤣😂🤣 love love the critique comparisons
Great reviewed of these chicken joint in a nutshell! I will only go the first thing the door opens in the morning! I will not go in the evening because these chicken had been sitting there especially KFC and Popeye's! 🤣🤔
I've always liked KFC but the last time I went to the one in Three Rivers, Michigan I was disappointed with the chicken, the coating was falling off the meat and the employees didn't seem to care about what they serve the customers and at times you have to stand around waiting for someone to take your order then stand around waiting for your order. Customer service isn't important to them
Sounds black and proud
Love that chicken at Popeye's!♥️
Freedom First ya
Wish you had mentioned the chicken pot pies at KFC. That's my favorite meal at this restaurant. I had this at KFC about a month ago and it was very good! I haven't had their other chicken meals for a few years but really enjoy the chicken pot pies.

The Bowl is my favorite! 😋

Wallpaper past potatoes??
yess!
The Colonel would be turning in his grave if he heard go to KFC for the sides, not the chicken. Damn shame, you had one job. Chicken. Use to be really good. Was fun to watch. Great video
After hear the complaint that Popeye's chicken "tastes like chicken" I decided to disregard this video and it's rankings. You would pray that the chicken you purchased regardless the restaurant would taste like chicken. Not owl, buzzard, hawk or mystery meat. LOL
Man I remember my first visit to USA on 1998 and trying KFC for the first time...that was some real good chicken. Sadly not the case nowadays.
KFC used to be OK, but now I usually refer to is as Kentucky Fried Cr*p...
Totally agree. Last bucket I had was about a year ago. Never again. Dry, overcooked, as well as some undercooked in the same fricken basket. No amount of breading or spices can cover that kind of crap.
You Got That Right ☹☹
It’s unfortunate that KFC’s quality went downhill after the Colonel passed. Grade of chicken is awful.
@@necroslair KFC is awesome
Just found out that a Bonchon is opening half a mile away from me. I'm pumped to try it
Albertson's (the grocery store) used to make great fried chicken. Meaty pieces and good seasoning (maybe a little salty for some but not me). And not greasy, which isn't easy to say about fried chicken. Not many stores left near me so I'm not sure how it is these days.
Everybody has their favorites, and mine is Church"s . It's been my favorite for many years. I've tried many others but THIS IS MY FAVORITE!!!!!!!!
Maybe I need to try it from where you're from because I'm from myrtle beach South Carolina. We had 1 that didnt last long. Was horrible, but the biscuits were amazing
Yea ours wasnt in a good location. Think if I tried a better kept up with churchs it would be better
Church’s is bomb. My absolute favourite is Popeyes but church’s is close second.. I’ve spent so much money on church’s chicken lmao
Why do most of mashed videos feel like a different form of advertisement?
Because they are
One that nobody know about and if you do please comment, is the chicken at Pizza Ranch. The nice part is the fact they are a pizza place means the chicken can be delivered just like the pizza. The only major flaw is sometimes the breading is overdone but this is very rare.
You forgot Brown's Chicken. Their chicken is so good and their sides are spot on. They also offer sides many other places don't like fried livers, hearts, and gizzards. Also, as good as Popeye's is, their customer service has gone down hill since the virus hit. Our household has ordered them multiple times and was always missing something then we stopped after ordering a large meal for 4 with sides and everything and all we got was the chicken, no sides or buscuits. (this was a DD order and I'm sure it wasn't a botched delivery but a botched order from Popeyes)
“What should steer you away from Champs Chicken is the fact that they have terrible chicken”
I happen to enjoy the Church's near where I live. The flavor is definitely worth the money and I LOVE their Biscuits.
I can testify for them as well. They dont freeze their chicken. I know. I deliver it.
I agree. Then Publix.
Church's make good chicken. Used to go there alot in San Diego
I never had Church's, but where I live, there's quite a lot so I might try it.
If y'all have this chicken joint called PDQ, you should check it out! They're delicious and their tater tots are everything🤤🥴
Never heard of them must be somewhere else. I am in NC southeastern.
Great show
Chester’s on border of AZ and CA Is so delicious. I go there coming and going. Chicken fingers and broasted potatoes so good. Biscuits great. Senior discount. I so look forward to stopping and plan my drive around it!
I went to pdq one day randomly i didnt even know it existed now they have a customer for life ... the customer service is top notch the chicken sandwiches are great and the milkshakes are delicious
Really...oh really
If your lucky enough to live near a Publix supermarket, You must try their fried chicken or chicken tenders.. IMO best chicken ever.. The deli chicken subs are insane good also! :)
I can confirm that because my friend from Virginia (before they finally build it there) we pick up so fried chicken from publix and he said it's very fresh and hot I said yeah lol
I have a public just down the road and I can confirm. It’s absolutely delicious.
agree. me three and I dont even like fried chicken
Can confirm as a Floridian Publix chicken is best chicken. Wether it’s tenders, fried chicken, or chicken tender sub. It’s delicious!!!
나도나도
The rankings are good and fair😌, I agree with this one😊
As many have already stated. Publix Supermarkets chicken is fantastic. And they also make better subs than I've had anywhere else.
This video's title should've been: "We contacted a bunch of fast food joints to see which one is willing to pay more, to have their chicken on the top of our list!"
Because churches should never be ranked better than anybody 😭 champs shouldn’t even have made the list
Yep I think you're right..
@nexus169 Churches is WAY better than KFC. I think Churches is pretty good, and the video even said their chicken is "hit or miss" so it may just depend on which specific location/time you get it.
@@skeletankmcgraw7343 y'all probably never ate KFC in the caribbean.. specifically Trinidad to say Churches is better
What's the weather like on your planet?
CfA consistently ranks at the top in polls. They offer a superior product, and their staff is highly customer service oriented.
That's why they out sell other fast food places despite being closed Sundays, (the equivalent of 7+ weeks per year).
There is a free standing Champs Chicken about 15 miles from where we live. My wife and I like their chicken. It is freshly cooked which adds to the wait time. Good slaw and potato salad. Also agree with others that Publix chicken tenders are hard to beat.
*Living outside of the U.S. now for 15 years, and although we have here in Colombia S/A KFC, the Chicken I miss the most is Popeyes mild heat flavor...* 🌴🐔

"Bitch please, I have worked at a KFC before and neither their mashed potatoes nor their biscuits are 100 percent real."
Evan If it isn’t 100% real I don’t care it taste good anyway
As a former cook of KFC, I humbly agree lol
It's freeze dried potatoes! It's still real just not fresh fresh!
I LOVE KFC IM AH 80S BABY 😋
I agree I never had a good experience at KFC. Potatoes tasted fake and chicken was dry.

When I was a child in the 60s KFC was our Friday treat. A few months ago I stopped and bought a couple of pieces.
All this time later I still feel like gagging it was so bad. Either my taste buds have changed or KFC chicken has gone way downhill.
I agree as it, like a lot of fast food chains, are only out to sell products, rather than what is actually in them. Those boxes of frozen Banquet fried chicken are better than any of the fast food ones. I'd rather make my own. At least I know what goes into it. 🍗
Ditto...I was also a teenager in the 60s, lived in Kentucky, have the last name of Sanders and use to go to KFC a couple times each month. As I remember chicken like everything else tasted better back then, mainly because I believe better care was given to growing chickens and staff were better trained and took pride in their work. But if my memory was really good you'd think I'd remember where I put my dang car keys..oh well, life is still good.
@@chefbambu9382 On the same idea as when The Whopper was actually flame-broiled. The last micro-broiled one I bought was cold. 🍔
Church's motto: locate the chicken joints where the people love to eat the chicken.
Even fast food varies by restaurant . The local KFC where I used to live was kind of bland. So if I was in a hurry the local supermarket deli was better; but if I drove to the one next town over that was really good!
Same with Arby,s. We have 2 in 5o mI. S . a nd one gives us more meat.
Sometimes it's just poor management
The Publix grocery store has really good fried chicken at reasonable prices. You have to get there when it first comes out as you can choose your piece. Size varies as does the amount of crust. Krogers is ok if it's very fresh or cold and very marked down. It's an interesting flavor as a novelty.
Giant Eagle has good fried chicken.
17 dollars for their wings doesn’t sound reasonable to me
@@blefan16 your right.. the wings are a bad deal.
Her commentary on these franchises and places had me laughing 😂, excellent
I have had many Jolly Bee dishes and I had never even heard of them until I went to the Philippines... And they they have Chicken and spaghettis as well as hamburgers, hot dogs and more.. And even in the Philippines it was great chicken... But in the Philippines they do Manook (chicken) very well anyway. Their street BBQ Chicken which tastes nothing like the BBQ we have here, is my favorite...
Church's Chicken is personally my favorite Chicken chain lol. When I lived in Phoenix we would always hit up Church's before we would go to the drive in theater.
Churches also has super awesome biscuits.
Amen. The drive in by Scottsdale/McKellips
Heck Yeah. Every time I visited relatives in Phoenix I couldn't wait to go to the Church's at 75th & Indian School Rd. Pure heaven.
I visited Yuma recently and they were great there too. Church's is like good old fashioned friend chicken in a good way. I didn't want any sides or drink, just the chicken. Price was right quality was fine.
Half these place have like 10 locations.
The only brand I can get here is KFC which used to be good but now is crap.
Most of these are out in flyover lands, I suppose.
You nailed everyone of them!
Well being out here from the West Coast. California we have a food chain store called Lucky's and the fried chicken is delicious so just a shout out to a supermarket named Lucky's in the deli department that makes the bomb fried Chicken. And then let me not forget Gus's Famous World Fried Chicken.
I used to live in St. Louis, MO. And I went to a Church's Chicken. They had just opened and I was the 1st customer. So I expected to get some fresh chicken. It tasted disgusting. The breading was blackish. I asked them when was the last time they changed the oil. They said they change the oil once every other week. I have never been back.
If they had just opened and you were the first customer, why would the oil have been there for any substantial length of time? Why would you even ask in that case? Regardless, I haven't had Church's in many years, but I don't recall it being anything spectacular, or even really good.
We have Popeyes now. Very good.
I'm guessing Church's tastes best in Texas.
Live in Georgia and we have a few Chick fli A Dwarf Houses. Their menu is good across the board, fried pies are some kind of wonderful. A plus is that Chick fli A staff is at a different level, courteous and actually seem like they don't mind working there.
fr, chick fil a staff are always so nice
You are right on point Steve. We only have one Chik Fil A here in New York City. It's in Manhattan on 36th Street and 6th Avenue and the line stretches around the block. The chicken us great and the staff goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service. I highly recommend Chik Fil A
I remember when a location opened in Woodstock in the early 90s and had the little red door - as a transplant someone had to explain the door to me.
@@jawjagrrl I dropped by that location for the fried pies (only at Dwarf House)
chick fil a is faster than mcdonalds
I love Raising Canes; I’ve never had Popeyes chicken though. I’ll have to try
After trying most of these Chik Fil A is the only fast food I go to outside of Taco Bell to change things up. I learned to make good burgers so all fast food burgers are garbage now. Home made is great and honestly pretty easy. I need to start making chicken sandwiches at home. Frying is a lot of prep with the oil so hopefully an air frying gets the job done to make things quicker and less messy.
Had Raising Canes a few months ago while on a trip with my kids. It was really really good 👍
Im right there with ya. I had RC's in Phoenix a year ago while visiting family and it was awesome. In my opinion the chiken sandwich is much better than Popeye's or Chick-fil-a.

Zaxby's order: chicken caesar salad and an order of onion strings with their version of zesty sauce. Just Amazing! However, I never got anything else from there though.
Best rotisserie chicken was in San Diego. The old Mission Bay Market on Mission Blvd in PB/MB in the 80's-90's You had to call in to reserve one as they sold out daily, cost around $3.00 Great to have after a day at the beach
Good Lord! They are spot on in regards to Bojangle’s! There level of pleasure is solely based upon the time of day and the store you choose. Thus, lowering their satisfaction.
But, their sweet tea, dirty rice, breakfast sandwiches and chicken (when fresh) is the best.
I know y’all didn’t just go off on my bro Church’s Chicken like that
Especially the got dam biscuits mmmhmhmhmhmhm its so good with the honey
Professor Multipurpose Church’s was really good in the 80s and after that Popeye’s owned them and they were still really good. Popeye’s sold them in 2004 and the quality has been going down ever since.
Best biscuits ever
I would kill for one of their biscuits right now
without a doubt, my favorite chicken.

@@forfpartyforfparty6459 I was born in the mid 90's lol
That's what they mean by inconsistent.
Back in the 80's it was fire.
Then it started being wayy too salty.
Then it solved that problem.
Now, its probably the last place i think of.
Although the actual TASTE (the herbs and spices) cant be beat.
Even by my favorite, Popeye.
Bojangles, Popeye's and Chick fil A are my favorite.
I'll stick with Chick-fil-A.. At least, they have grilled chicken; not into fried food.
Bojangles' chicken is pretty good, actually. But what I don't get about all these silly chicken chains is --- what on earth is the link between chicken and biscuits? Biscuits are usually dry and bland, and seem to me to be the very last thing I would want to eat with chicken. Chicken and yeast rolls sound good, but biscuits? I usually throw the biscuits away if they include them. They are very dry, boring and are worse than choking on a chicken bone.

KFC chicken best when they first open
Good stuff
Talking about Lee's Chicken:
It may actually be better than KFC's
Bruh you literally ranked it above KFC.
Lee's is absolutely better than KFC's in our area!
@@kendrabeal9900 sounds about right
That made me laugh.
I miss working and eating at Raising Canes.
How much they pay?
PiplupJamesBattle is it just the location i went to or is it not seasoned? and everything was soggy idk maybe it was a bad day they also messed up my order and gave it to the car in front of me idk how that happened 😂
@@99north72 i think it's the location when i go to canes I never have this problem
lord_ lolz123YT facts. They just opened here in Portland, and it’s perfect. Makes me want to take a trip to Vegas again lol.
@@markellhilaire4563 yea canes is amazing i actually had some today haha thats what made me watch the video to see if they were on the list
I just recently found a KKC in our area and yes they are really, really good
Popeye's, KFC, Boston Market, Church's and Bojangles, Bonchon and Jollibee, El Pollo are my favorites. El Pollo and Jollibee I could get in NYC. Church's and Bojangles I need to head south to Philly. all the others I could get here in NYC.
the somewhat monotone voice is just so out of place with the absolute destruction of the lower ranked restaurants
I thought her voice was kinda hot in a cute way, but that's just me for you.
Last time I went to Popeyes I almost got jumped for asking for the sandwich 😭
And the staff at every Popeyes knows how to fight plus they make 7.50 an hour
Wendy's has a better chicken sandwich.
I like popeyes, but that chicken sandwich trend is ridiculous.
@@Mardasee -_-
@@Mardasee nah Carl's jr ( I havent had KFC's or popeyes yet)
Churchs in my area Rocks... building looks run down, but it is always packed.. Clearwater/St Pete
I wish I had a Bojangles close to me. I live in Baltimore. The York PA one became a Five Guys. I don't like driving in the DC area although I did drive to the one in Upper Marlboro MD one once. I have eaten at the one in Reading PA twice. Once was excellent and the other time was mediocre. I do have a Wingstop nearby. I ordered them for delivery and they took forever. I loved the Parmesan and butter but my friend did not care for their buffalo.
Popeye's service is horrendous where I live. We have 2 and I've had bad experiences at both.
If you want great service don’t go to fast food, lol
KFC in Australia The CHICKEN (CAT) Falls apart, Also in the middle of it it is BLOOD RED and the coating is WET SOGGY GOO, I nearly DIED actually EVERY SINGLE FAST FOOD SHOP that ISN'T FISH AND CHIP SHOPS after eating I am in so much stomach/Intestinal agony afterwards I FEEL LIKE I AM GOING TO DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The food is good, the service not so good
@@matletico Yeah Chick-Fil-A’s service is awful isn’t it lol
Me too.
But I don’t care!!!!!!!!!!😖
If I owned a Chicken Restaurant, I would serve ButterMilk Fryed Chicken. I actually tenderized the Chicken in ButterMilk for 3 days, one time. Meat was starting to fall off the bone - even though the Chicken was Raw. The Chicken turned out EXCELLENT!
The Rolls Royce Trent that’s a lot of work though. You probably wouldn’t be running a fast food, it’ll be an intermediate diner for it to be worth it
Sounds awesome, buttermilk chicken.....yummy for my tummy!!!
Asian Octopus that’s not a lot of work. You just have to keep the cycle going and have the chicken ready three days in advance. Next day you do the same thing and so on and so forth.
@@gferdyg eh, would you do that, only to sell an entire family meal for $18.99? Or would you just do what every other chain store does and just sell bland chicken? I mean, people are hungry and they'll buy it anyway
Asian Octopus that mentality is what gives rise to mediocre establishments survival. However Publix supermarket fried chicken is very delicious and they aren’t expensive. Also this process isn’t expensive. Buttermilk is pretty cheap so it doesn’t cost the business that much. In fact, fried chicken needs some sort of dredge. All they need to do is have some sort of seasoned flour to dump the chicken in after and they’re all set.
Whaat?? Krispy Krunchie's sides are BOMB! The potato wedges are DELICIOUS! And I don't even like biscuits, but they're 🔥! And they're one of the only spots that cook chicken breasts perfectly!
Wendy's used to have the best fried chicken but most people don't remember that. Roy Rogers also
TBH, people hyped up the popeyes chicken sandwich wayyy too much. It was just a good chicken sandwich, that's all. but it was not that crazy at all. People just hopped on the bandwagon as usual.
Straight facts
Your crazy man. Popeye's chicken sandwhich was a holy grail sent from above.
The gas station" chicken mentioned "Krispy Krunchy Chicken" really surprised me. Incredibly moist, a little spicy, bone-in chicken. However, "Dodge's Chicken" @ Dodge Store in beyond belief. My wife stops there at least 2-3 times a week to get a meal to bring home. The spicy chicken (especially the wings) are the BEST i've had - Ever. Corn on the cob, quartered baked then fried potato quarters, greens, baskets, the list goes on. It's incredible "gas station" food !
There's many in California. I'm in San Diego and omfg SO FREAKING GOOD!!
Symara White I’m SO glad someone else knew the place I was talking about and has tried it ! I had no idea they were on the west coast either. Great to know ! 👍
It's on the list in this video
Yeah its in the video, and almost everywhere in the US
A few co-workers and I at a former job decided to find out who has the best chicken biscuits for breakfast. Surprisingly, it was a tie. Hardees had the better biscuit, but Chik'fil'A had the better chicken. KFC can be hit or miss, leaning towards miss dry and crusty, Popeye's is ONLY good if you can handle the spice they load it with. Burger King's fried chicken breast (not the generic patty) is pretty good (particularly on salads), but again, can vary depending on the store. Pizza hut's "wing street" wings used to be good, but vanished from the menu here not long ago, so the best I can find locally ends up being Wingstop (over a bunch of local places)
I fully agree, I've always LOVED Chick-Fil-A, wow!
Great chicken sandwiches
My Fried Chicken Ranking is more like:
1. Lee's Famous Recipe
2. Krispy Krunchy Chicken
3. Royal Farms
4. Popeyes
5. Bojangles
6. KFC
I never had Churches before so not sure where it would fall on my list.
I've had it, and I really hate it. The only good thing about it is the biscuits.
I have to disagree with you regarding Church's Chicken. I LOVE the flavor and size of the Chicken you get. I also LOVE the jalapeño peppers they sell.
You Haven't Eaten At Church's In Petersburg Va.Not Good.
Yeah
Dunno why folks hate on Church’s.
Never had bad Fried Chicken there.
Although Popeyes is my favorite
@@cynthiabrown5994 I ate at a Church's in Puerto Rico and that was the best chicken I ever tasted.
Loved Kenny Rogers Rosters and yes grocery stores sell Rosters cheaper and generally better.Never did understand how chicken is more expensive at fast food as it is cheaper then beef or pork.Wing house,or molly good heads for wings.
My dad used to take us to KFC for special occasions, in my native country. The chicken they used were HUGE!!! & the meat practically melted in your mouth. GOD!! We loved it!!! Nothing like the KFC ones in NYC.
