Anyone ever had raising cane's? I think its only in the vegas area though. But it is decidedly better than all of these places. I declare it.
Anyone like Pollo Tropical? I've only seen them in Florida but several years ago I started seeing them here in New Jersey but then about 2 years ago they all disappeared from this area.
They had yummy chicken that was flattened and cooked on a grill and their white rice was amazing. Now I can only get it when I visit the mother-in-law.
It was crazy cheap, too.
Raising Canes is a national chain. They only serve chicken tenders. The OP is talking about bone in chicken.
Of the national chains for bone in chicken. Popeyes is best. Regional I like chicken express for their sheer selection of sides and their product doesn't is usually fresher than say KFC/Popeyes.
Chicken tenders. Its Canes or Chicken Express(again for sheer number of sides offered).
This thread inspired me to go to KFC for lunch today since it was close by. I specifically ordered 10 piece mixed chicken for take out, but got only legs and thighs. When I called the restaurant to complain, they told me that they did not make a mistake and to bring it back for proof. I stopped eating and drove back to KFC. Even after seeing the chicken in the bucket, the manager refused to believe that it was the chicken she had packed and said that she wasn't going to do anything about it. Unbelievable!
mighty wings. <insert mighty theme music>
especially since they are pretty much selling them at cost

they gave you the best parts of the chicken, minus wings. white meat = bleh
dark meat is slimy, tendony, and gross--for fried chicken, anyway. White meat is best for Fried Chicken. Dark meat is best chopped up, seasoned, and stir fried, or cooked for filler--like burritos, or tacos or chicken and rice and other such dishes.

wow, your chow credibility just dropped to zero.
fried chicken, bro. Dark meat...vastly inferior. succulent, juicy white meat fried chicken is tits.
Fat is flavor. GTFO
It is, and while white meat does have it's own fat, the flavor from fried chicken is in the brine, the batter and the delicious artery-clogging oil that it has been frying in.
the texture of dark meat compared to white meat offsets any fat advantage for fried chicken. fat flavor is pretty much inconsequential.
GTFO, heathen. I should have known based on your attitude towards mayo.
You're basically a culinary Obama, ie don't know what the fuck you're doing.
I keeed, I keeeed.
SoCal native trying to school a real Southerner on Fried Chicken!
