Crust falls off chicken after adding bb sauce
I love crunchy bbq chicken. Similar to the way Popeyes. Where they just fry it crunchy and add sauce. I do an overnight soak in buttermilk and Lawry's seasoning salt garlic powder and onion powder. Drained excess milk for 15 minutes the following day. Didn't pat it completely dry but it wasn't a wet mees either.
WDredge in seasoned flour/starch mix.let sit for 15 and do another dry dredging. Fry at 325-350. Comes out perfect. I go to toss chicken in BBQ sauce and everything comes off the chicken. What happened?
Using oil thermometer to ensure proper temp. Frying on electric stove. After a lifetime of gas I absolutely hate cooking on electric but that's another rant. submitted by /u/PieceFit
