Yesterday I put 5 drumsticks in a ziplock with buttermilk and a liberal amount of salt, cayene, Chipotle powder, garlic powder, hot sauce, and pepper.
Refrigerated overnight and then coated with cornflake chips.
Put them on at 350 dome indirect.
Added an ear of corn for the last 40 minutes.
Coated the corn with mayo and Tony's creole seasoning, this was some seriously good chicken. Tangy, spicy, extremely crispy, and delicious.

Thought you would be attacking the red meat with Kim out of town But with chicken like that your eating great :woohoo:
-
Randy,
Now that looks amazing....I will gave that a try -
That looks great. How was the corn? It looks very interesting.
-
Corn is iffy this time of year but that ear was good. I'm not supposed to eat butter so I tried mayo made from olive oil instead and really liked it. -RP

Thanks Randy for this post. I just pulled out some wings and am going to marinate in buttermilk and tobasco.
Looks fantastic, as usual!Molly

Hey Molly, I put quite a bit of salt in the buttermilk thinking it would work as a brine, which it did. I was just going to flour them but the buttermilk was so thick I thought it would turn into paste. The cornflake crumbs worked great. -RP

Nice! We would make chicken fingers at a chef operated corporate place. We would take chicken breasts and skin 'em and cut in 3 strips and marinate 'em in the butter milk/tabasco mix over night. Talk about a tender and flavorful chix. Customers loved that day! The mix was a light pink, simple but good.Molly

Randy....Wow...Wow...Wow, do those ever look fantastic!! :laugh: I would venture to guess this is one "experiment" The Filly will be happy to partake in. Nicely done.
-
Yeah, I told you I was going to flour them, but then I remembered I had some left over corn flake crumbs. -RP
-
Perfect choice! :laugh:
-
That looks fine and dandy. But how was the ugly steaks?
Mike -
Randy that looks fantastic!! Fried chicken without all the fat. Yum!! I'm going to give this one a try on some wings.
Wait a minute...something just dawned on me. Today is Kim's B.D. Where's her food? 4 legs and one ear of corn?? Poor Filly :( -
Mike they were absolutely the finest tasting piece of protein I have ever put in my mouth. -RP
-
She is visiting her parents in NC. -RP
-
Finnaly the quest for crispy skin chicken is complete! :laugh: It really does look great. Never hear of soaking in buttermilk before.
-
Ok, that explains it Randy. I hope she's having a good time out in NC. It's a beautiful time of the year out there.
-
I don't use real butter for anything. I use the Crisco butter flavor spray on corn. It's great on popcorn too, instead of all the fat you get in the buttered popcorns. Also, the smart balance or "I can't believe it's not butter" spray butter is great on baked potatoes and veggies too. I even use it on toast, pancakes..just about anything.
-
Jl, the buttermilk gives chicken a really nice tangy flavor. -RP

Venison, too! Chicken fried steak....the list is endless. My little Dutch grandmother learned that back in the Great Depression.
Randy, you are the real Iron Chef champ...that translation from the 60's recipe of oven baked to Egg baked sure worked well. Congrats on the cook--probably no leftovers, either :woohoo: -
Looks great Randy and I bet it tasted great
Ross -
That looks great. I wish I had a couple of those legs right now.
-
That is a great recipe, which I think that I'll be trying out this weekend. Now if only I remember where I put that drum/wing rack...
Thanks for the ideas, RP! -
Yummy! I have some buttermilk in the fridge that is out of date 20 days, someone told me buttermilk does not go bad, is this true?
-
That looks so good, where did y'all get the rack?
-
Susan,
Send me the bill for your new bottle of buttermilk, and I'll pick it up. It'll be less than the E.R. co-pay if you get sick.
Hope that you're doing well out there! -
I got one similar at Target, but I've seen them at HD and Lowes.
-
WOW!
LOOKS AMAZING!
How long did the legs take at 350?
MMMMMmmmmm MMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmIn Maryland -
Delicious, thanks for the pics. I will be making it for sure.
