America’s ‘Fried Chicken War’

For those in the SE US, I recommend trying Publix fried chicken, if you haven't already. I get a whole fried chicken for less than $10, and it's better than anything I've had in a restaurant. The trick is to call an hour ahead, and have them make it fresh for you. That's half a fried chicken, plus another half as fixin's!

grocery store fried chicken can be amazing. A local store in my old neighborhood ( SW Dallas ) would cook a fresh batch on Saturday afternoons. so good and very affordable.

Safeway has some of the best chicken tenders.

I grew up on Publix fried chicken. If you find yourself relocated to FL and invited to a House Party/BBQ/Picnic/Bible Study, bring Publix friend chicken and you'll make immediate friends.

Confirmed and seconded.

Publix fried chicken has even made some top 10 lists for chicken/fried chicken reserved for restaurants.

damn, i didn’t even know the call ahead was an option - grew up in central Florida. On the left coast, Vons fried chicken is phenomenal imo

Besides the fresh preparation, the next best thing about call-ahead is that you can ask them to do all dark meat, which I prefer.
