Buttermilk hot sauce marinade.

[isaac]

I did a whole bird on the weekend with this marinade that turned out amazing. I find sometimes a salt brine changes the texture of the meat, this marinade produced a amazing bird.
4 cups buttermilk
1 cup Tabasco or equivalent
1tbs each pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt.
1/2 tbs cayenne pepper.
Mix everything up, soak the bird over night.
Rinse the bird before cooking and cook.
Really good. Enjoy

If it's as good as when done with Frying the Bird , it'll be phenomenal . I do my Pan Fried Chicken in a soak like this and love it...only I go from wet to dry mix (no patting dry) , then in hot oil... YUMMO

Is that really not a missprint 1 cup tobasco? How many bottles of tobasco is that?

 

[isaac]

no that is no Misprint . It's one cup of Tabasco sauce or equivalent i.e. Frank's hot sauce or something like that. I'm in Canada and at Costco we get big bottles of Tabasco sauce probably about a cup and a half per bottle.

I love me some heat. If that's the deal then I'm in!

You could accually put more in. My 9year old son loved it and he's not to keen on hot stuff. With the one cup it's pretty mild. I was 250f in the smoker I just built until I hit 170f. Then let rest. I recomend it, it's really good chicken.

I do mine the same old school , except I go from the soak to dry mix , then thru some fresh buttermilk , back to the dry mix then into the cast iron skillet . So good .
