    I work at KFC and, while I don’t know the secret recipe, I can say that the cooking method was wrong. We use pressure deep fryers at 345 Fahrenheit for 16 minutes. No buttermilk, and the ratio should be about 1/3 herbs and spices to 2/3 flour. Also, I can say for sure that there isn’t paprika. The distinct red color just isn’t in any of the mixes. (Also, we do use MSG, it’s one of the few things on the ingredients list) hope this helps!

    ​@@shahzad1433they marinate using a marinating powder which we find at the back stock. Then, we use ice and marinate. To cook that, we double-dredge the chicken, apparently by squeezing the air out. The flour contains a mix of milk and egg powder, a spice mix (which has black pepper for sure) and salt. Then, we fry them in a pressure cooker for about 10 minutes. However, I find cooking chicken in a regular fryer for about 10 minutes makes them juicier.

    Great vid. The key to the taste is two things that make all the difference. The portions of ingredients (which we all know can change results drastically if they are off) and the chicken is pressure fried. I do like the fact you use the starch in the flour mixture. I usually use Cornstarch in mine instead of potato, I like the crunch it creates. Great copy cat! :)

Dredge: 1 C AP flour 4 tsp kosher salt 1 Tbls MSG 2 tsp sugar 2 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp white pepper 1/2 tsp paprika 1/2 tsp ground savory 1/2 tsp sage (ground) 1/4 tsp ginger (ground) 1/4 tsp marjoram (ground) 1/4 tsp onion powder 1/8 tsp garlic powder 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (ground) You can soak the chicken in some buttermilk and go right into the dredge or for Xtra crispy you can go into egg wash and back into the dredge!

There is definitely no paprika, onion, garlic, basil, or oregano in kfc chicken. Salt, pepper, white pepper, msg, ginger, allspice, marjoram, coriander, thyme and rosemary is way closer. All of those ingredients need to be finally ground and mixed, then medium ground black pepper added.

    Many old employees have though.... In my country (I live in Asia).....So when the KFC came here after 5-10 years many copycat Restaurant/fastfood stores popped up all over the country....... (Mostly old employees started those restaurants , Similarly with pizza hut too) This seems too be a common occurrence especially because of Asia's copyright rules (Like the Restaurant was called ( EXAMPLE) : LFC) .....And so I hear the Russians have got their own Copycat Versions too so Russians arent suffering too much after many international Fastfood Restaurants closed in Russia (due to Ukraine-Rus war)

    I worked at KFC as a fry cook when I was younger and we were never told anything about what’s in the seasoning. We were to take a bag of flour that literally just said “flour” and mix it with a bag that literally said “salt” and as someone who cooked since I was a kid I would taste the salt and flour and would try my best to call it out and this is what I came up with; So the color of the salt alone gives off an Adoboish yellow color. I remember getting notes of oregano, white pepper, salt, black pepper, and the MSG is a no brainer. Other than that I will also say that KFC’s level of freshness is probably one of the best out of any restaurant I’ve ever worked at. The chicken is always delivered super fresh and we were expected to constantly change the chicken out of the warmer every hour and 30 mins. Also expected to clean our pressure fryers out every day if not every two days depending on how busy we got. That also played a part in the taste of the chicken.

    Hey Nick, I am a sub, and upon watching your videos, I would always appreciate the entertaining aspects of your videos that make them stand out from other cooking channels. However, in regards to this video I am not sure if you would want to leak something that's been keeping KFC going for so many years. KFC is known for Colonel Sander's recipe, and there is a reason why it is kept secret; it is a signature dish on the menu and is one of the most iconic foods of the 20-21st Century.

    Between the allergens lists, our taste buds and smell receptors being pretty good at telling culinary stuff apart and trained animals covering what we can't, no recipe is immune to being cracked as far as basic ingredients are concerned. However, not only are plants ridiculously plenty in variety, but some of their breeds are proprietary. Meaning that you can't ask for seeds / sapplings (or similars), and getting your hands on one of these without asking and proceeding to plant, harvest and sell them or whatever you make out of them will most likely get you a heavy lawsuit. To top that off, the processes behind turning these plants into spices are all industrial secrets too, and other than telling whatever chemicals may end up in the final product, the owners of these secrets have no further obligations. So while our chemical receptors can tell us the difference between things made in way X and way Y, they aren't retro-engineering machines to tell us how it all arrived there. And since our allergen receptors don't care about such details, FDA won't give a damn either. Not to say that these so-called "secrets" means that they are the best all around to everyone. When things are way too good, we simply cannot evaluate which one is the best. This is specially important when we consider popular, mass-produced food items, such as fast-food spice blends and soft drinks. They aren't made to be deeply appreciated by "sommeliers", but simply appeal to a large amount of people; So not only are people unlikely to judge these items objective, they also have no reason to attempt it. But... While we cannot usually can (or want) to tell which one is better, we certainly can get "attached" to certain flavors, even more so when they bring us nostalgia or, quite the contrary, gives us something new to appreciate. Thus, keeping your exact recipe a secret is less of a way to avoid people attempting to make similar or "better" stuff, and more of a measure to keep a strong grip over said item's identity and all the popular culture that was built over them.

    Hey Nick, hope this helps: Right after senior year of highschool my mom passed away. She was the main provider for my family, leaving me, my older sister (who worked as a paid intern at an IT company), my younger brother (who didnt work at all cuz he was 13), and my grandmother to have to make up for her role. I decided to, out of necessity, work at the nearby KFC/Taco Bell which was in a shopping plaza pretty close to my house. I wasnt sure if they would hire me or not, seeing as I was still 17 years old, but the recruiting manager gave me a break and was really nice throughout. I started working there 6 days a week, 8 hour shifts, every week for the entire summer before I had to leave for college just to raise money for the house. At first, I was just a kitchen aid (someone who doesn't prepare any of the actual food, but instead is responsible for smaller tasks such as packaging, putting lids on cups and bowls, making sure every order matched the ticket, replacing sauce dispensers, cleaning the drink machine and routinely replacing the concentrate bladders, cleaning the deep frier trays, stocking the utensils, wiping down the counters, and of course; sweeping the floors). I would also manage drive through, mobile pickup, and phone orders. Basically, my job was to make the restaurant specialists' job as easy as possible. Eventually, however, my manager saw how consistent a worker I was and how thorough I was in everything that I was tasked to do that she promoted me to restaurant specialist a little after I turned 18. There, I was given a pamphlet of all of the proper food preparation protocol--how to make sure item sizes are always consistent so as not to increase costs, how to properly lay chicken into the friers to avoid splash or uneven cooking, how to maintain oil temperature, how to store some of the foods with longer shelf lives that we could sell the next day--quite literally each and every minute, negligible thing. This pamphlet also, naturally, included the recipes in a box on the top right corner for us to know for situations akin to the exact ones you portrayed in your video; if someone has an allergy or other type of food restriction. The section broke the recipes down to a simple foot soldier level--that is, what we ourselves had to do in the store such as coating the chicken, shaking it off, frying it, etc.--as well as the components already completed prior from the factory production side of things just for us to be in the know-how. In this little subsection, the pamphlet laid out the proportions and, you betcha, the NAMES of the exact herbs and spice compounds that were preblend into the coating we would get shipped weekly from our distribution center. And because of that, because of the pamphlet which I kept and is in front of me today, I can happily say that Colonel Sanders' original 12 spices and herbs are *gunshot*
