<<< Last week, I posted to a.f.fast-food with the topic, "Robbin' the
cradle at Popeye's," which was about how young the chickens must be that
Popeye's uses. Luckily--or unluckily for my waistline--the Popeye's near
us takes competitors' coupons, so I use Church's coupons there a lot.
Their spicy chicken w/ mashed potatoes and biscuit is fast food at its
best.

---------------------------
Thanks for the tip.Ive alaways thought Popeyes was better than all the
others.The nearest one to me is about 5 miles,so I get a lot when Im
there on the way from Tropicana Field.Since I get flooded with Churches
coupons all the time,I enquire if they honor them.Thei
r mashed potatos are the best Ive had,with flecks of jalapino thru
them,but not enough to burn your mouth.
KFC is ok in a bind,,,good mashed potatoes....but their biscuits taste
like cardboard

Your husband sounds like a keeper ;) I've never had a problem with gravy
but the first time I made stock was hilarious. It actually turned out
exactly as it should have but I thought I had made some savory type of
gelatin mess.

I have not had either in a long time but I concur with your opinion. IIRC
KFC was really expensive compared to Popeye's too.

When I worked at KFC back in 1975, we made the gravy from the stuff
we filtered from the oil, so it was basically the same ingredients
that went into the chicken, plus some extra flour for thickening.

I have no idea what they do now.

Tear the lid off a pre packaged dry mix and add hot water. :(

I think they quit using any ingredient that resembled real chicken in
any way, a long time ago. To me, the stuff is disgusting. It tastes
like the gravy you buy in jars, which I was served once....

This is NOT how it's done in the actual stores. :( It's a
pre-packaged, dry mix.

No, I don't know. But a while ago I needed gravy and had to make
something up. So I made the standard veloute sauce with butter, flour
and chicken stock. I flavored the roux while it was briefly cooking
with poultry seasoning and sage, and white pepper. After tasting, I
added both salt and msg (Accent). If I had to guess I'd nominate msg
as the ingredient you're missing. Second guess if it's really a spice
taste would be a tiny bit of nutmeg. -aem
 
kentucky fried chicken gravy is awful, but col. sanders gravy is awsome.. so you want to know the spices in kfc gravy, well if i told you, how would you know, if you don't know how to make kfc gravy then.?? but i'll tell you anyway, the gravy, is made up from crackings, seasoned flour, spices , and water. the cracking is fried chicken bits and cooked coating. seasoned flour is a egg powder and bbq spice and garlic, when makeing gravy cracking and flour roux, then add water and onion powder and black pepper chicken enhancer...i make it always.
