Did a nephew spill the Colonel's secret recipe (kfc)

[Alan]

Sounds like one of Colonel Sanders nephews came across a hand written note in one of the Colonel's scrap books and went public with it. Wonder if it's the real deal.

I've toured yum foods a few times. I think the secracy is for promotion. Any lab should be able to determine the herbs and spices, and their percentage.

I found a recipe some years back online that claimed to be a clone of the KFC recipe. I tried it and it tasted the same to me.
I don't know if this is the same one, I have it on my home computer. But it looks the same from what I can recall.

Yep, promotion.

Saws a documentary a few years ago in which one of his daughters claimed the "final" recipe was written on the kitchen wall by the door in the house where they lived at the time. As far as she knew it was still there when they moved!

This nephew's recipe may be a failed attempt. Seems to have a lot of ginger.

KFC will make a turd but it ain't nothing special compared to what some of these older southern ladies can do!

Mom likes KFC. What I've found interesting you can eat the whole bird bones and all. I don't know if it's the cooker or the bird but it's all eatable

I kick myself because I never paid attention to how my mom fried chicken. She always made the best and she could make some kick a$$ gravy out of the grease crumbles. When I fry it there's a coat of armor on it. Rather have the crispy when it comes to KFC.

I'm going to try it and see. May not be the original but it don't look to shabby either.

Slick I should learn from your post and go watch my grandma cook some a few times while I still have her around. Not to mention that after the watching comes the eating! Win win situation :nod: I can fry chicken but not like her. her batter has a lot to do with it. And she only cooks on a gas stove. She said electric takes too long. When it comes to gravy, I ain't never been too good at that. Maybe I should get her to show me that while she's frying chicken!

It's an art that's being lost so you'll surely kick yourself later on if you don't. Mom had all those little crumbly things on the breading that I can't duplicate. :cry2:

Anyone ever see a KFC buffet? There is one about 20 miles from me. Pretty good place.

Yup. Have eaten off several. My streak ended in Arkansas when they couldn't keep up when they were in really deep weeds.

 

[greybeard]

No, Joe, but we have a regional version of it, and it's not bad either. Oddly enough, one of the items on the chicken buffet is fried fish, which even odder (more odd?) (or not) is that it tastes a lot like the chicken.
