Looks like I need to enjoy them while they are still here and before volunteerism dies altogether…

They always seem closed or out of chicken when I drive by…

We've been making chicken that way for years. We call it Berlin chicken.

More invites to your house?

Yes!

Anyone else?

The Kiwanis chicken right up the road is much better than Greenwood Firehouse in my opinion but the firehouse is pretty tough to beat in the first place.
I like the two of them better than Linkwood which a lot of people rave over.
Our church cooks them the Brookview way which is a might tasty as well.
The dinners sell out so fast at Brookview/Eldorada pre order is a must if you want to have some.
Should be a cook coming up soon at Eldorada, great for lunch after some morning bow hunting.

Some of the plates at Mardela in that shack by the rest stop used to be good to but those folks are prolly long gone by now. That was the real deal right there for country cooked chicken back in the day.

Loves me chicken.

Tried “Chicken Chesapeake” but I’d rather have stuffed flounder.

I would not brine the chicken, but use skinless, boneless breasts. A little old bay(or whatever your fav seasoning is) and a little olive oil and fry in a skillet.

Is there a defined poultry seasoning? That seems to be a variable. Thanks for sharing.

Agree. Dollar General use to have a good one, not seen it lately.

I'm pretty sure there's something about that in the Bible too:

'Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk' (Exodus 23:19)
