Southern Fried Chicken


2- 3-pound chicken fryers
2 cups all-purpose flour
salt and black pepper to taste
1 cup milk
Crisco vegetable shortening
1 tablespoon bacon grease
Cut up the chicken -be real careful and don't loose any of that skin! Try to keep it together!
Best way it to cut it in half down the back bone (need a Sharp Knife!), then take the let quarters, pull the thigh a leg apart a little and you'll see a crease between em, cut it on that crease. On the white meat, cut diagonal behind the wing.
Get a brown paper bag, combine the flour and salt and pepper in it and shake it real good till it's all mixed together. Pour the milk into a big bowl.

Get your skillet hot (375°F) filled 1/2 way with melted Crisco, and add the bacon grease. Put in a few drops of water or spit in the grease, when it start's sputterin, the grease is ready.

Dip the chicken pieces into the milk then place in the bag. Shake it real good ("It's Shake & Bake, and I HELPED"!). shake the excess flour back into the bag, and start putting the pieces in the grease. Fry the chicken till golden brown and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes, turn once, cut the heat back some (350°F) and fry till golden brown (about 10-15 minutes more)

Drain on another paper bag or on paper napkins and repeat the procedure with the remaining chicken.

Classic Kansas City Barbecue Sauce


1/4 tsp. allspice 1/2 tsp. Classic Red Hot Pepper Sauce

(more for more heat, less for less)

1/4 tsp. mace
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. curry powder

1/2 tsp. chili powder 1/2 tsp. paprika
1/4 cup white vinegar 1/3 cup dark molasses
1 cup ketchup


Sift together dry ingredients. Combine hot sauce, vinegar, molasses, and ketchup. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Store up to 3 weeks in refrigerator, up to 6 months in freezer.

Makes 2 cups of sauce.

Note: for best results brush liberally on food during final five to six minutes of barbecue or broiling, as sauce may burn when cooking on an open flame at high temperature. For extra flavor, add generously on food after cooking or on the side. Also great as a dipping sauce for wings, fries, etc.
