Guy Fieri Eats Fried Chicken and Waffles | Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives | Food Network

So here I am in Silver Spring Maryland just outside of DC to visit a joint that says they’re celebrating the American Classics and they’re doing it get this in a building from 1883 that used to be the General Store at post office I guess it’s only fitting they call it the

General Store chicken pop pie enjoy the food’s incredible there you go the macaroni and cheese is fantastic fried ch best fried chicken you ever had all cranked out by owners Gillian Clark bringing them out right now and Robin Smith okay A lot of people are used to food really coming from scratch getting

People to get back in touch with American food like collard greens cornbread and this Southern Classic Fried Chicken it’s like great what are we going to make we’re making fried chicken start with the marinade buttermilk I add hot sauce crushed garlic it hasn’t been chopped this is

Just going to give a overtone of garlic but not an overwhelming this isn’t garlic hot sauce chicken no I’ve got my pieces of chicken but it’s marinated 24 hours give it to me then when we come back what’s the dredge going to be flour good amount of salt fresh ground pepper

So I’ll coat it really well you give them a little bit of a shake but you’re not going to necessarily knock everything off when you’re going to get serious about Fried Chicken look at this also works as a good little mini hot tub for the kids I’m going to add corn oil

Half a pound of butter really that’s what makes that crust so good it’s like a piece of bread with butter on it we feel good about the T one of the number one selling items when we run out there’s really Health to pay really yeah

It takes 8 to 10 minutes for that crust to get really really good and brown takes another like 5 to 10 minutes on the other side and then we go into the oven for bre thanes with the Fried Chicken we make chicken and waffles and instead of just maple syrup I make a

Chicken gravy maple syrup chicken gravy and maple syrup we call it chicken maple syrup so we start with chicken stock brown sugar chicken stock with brown sugar that is the oddest thing I think I’ve seen you got to come on down for our caramel candy meatballs that we’ll

Be doing later butter and flour this is your rud and then you’re just going to slowly dab that in now I’m going to add the syrup of course little salt and pepper so we try it that works now it’s time to make waffles make a waffle from

Scratch all right so now we’ve got the fried chicken look at that and our waffles ready there we have it like that one and that one and we have our gravy that’s pretty nuts let me show you this oh look at that chicken roll this

Up get out of here with that gravy uh the chicken is cooked all the way through the salty crunch of the breading just holds on really nice the amount of hot sauce you put in that owns it waffles like a big crunchy bar tortilla Chicken and Waffles you got the

Sweet you got the salty out of this world
