    Bizarre cooking sequence. My mother was working with a KFC pressure cooker
    in the 50’s and the secret receipe didn’t include pressure deep frying but
    the following: pressure steam cooking for 5 to 6 minutes at 15 psi (250F
    pressure cooker with 1/4 cup of water). Recuperate the chicken broth in the
    pressure cooker to mix with the batter. Make the batter with your 11
    spices, let the chicken cool down and cover with batter. Fry at 350F for 5
    minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, do not overcook since cooking
    to the core of the chicken pièces was previously done in the pressure
    cooker Under steam pressure. You’ll get the real thing (crispy on the
    outside, tender and juicy on the Inside and not overcooked on the
    outside). Your receipe tend to overcook the surface and burn the batter to
    get a complete cooking of the chicken pièces. Try it

    you must be from ‘tucky. I saw “Kroger” brand and that chicken brand is
    also popular in KY

    I never knew KFC to pressure fry their chicken however Chick-FiLa does it
    all the time.

  7. Mary Smith says:

    The cook’s voice is just like Mr. Haney’s on Green Acres. Hilarious, but
    distracting, since I kept laughing every time he said something.

    At 15 pounds of pressure you max out at 250 degrees, so as soon as you put
    the lid on, your grease temp drops from 350 as your pressure rises. In
    theory putting the lid on that grease that’s 350 is dangerous as the temp
    should never exceed 250 degrees in the cooker. I don’t know of a pressure
    cooker that can exceed 15 pounds so you just needed to cook it longer at
    250 or 15 pounds.
    228 F=5lbs 230F=10lbs and 250F= 15lbs These numbers came right off the
    gauge of my All American canner /cooker

    try buter milk instead of skim better flavor and use a salid spinner to get
    some water out . you can also get water out buy salting the chicken and
    letting sit but it will be salty as heck.

    It looks just like KFC’s original !! I’m buying a pressure cooker this
    weekend!

    Use Kentucky Kernel seasoned flour, more salt and pepper, cut the pulley
    bone from the breasts, fold the wings, dip in eggs and less milk, shake in
    dredging flour, repeat, let rest for a while. Secret ingredient, butter
    flavored Crisco. Grew up in WV and have been fixing fried chicken since I
    was ten years old. Use lard and butter if you have to do so. Iron skillet
    is the way to go with lid. Cook medium the when done turn up the heat
    uncover to brown. Drain some of the grease use more seasoned flour to make
    gravy. This recipe has been honed and is shared for the art of frying
    chicken. Please do not copyright. Don’t forget the buttermilk biscuits too.
    Enjoy.

  17. arangusmail says:

    Do you punch holes in the chicken so it will suck up more oil?

  18. mo jojo says:

    When u opened it there was still pressure inside

    Fagor Super Cooker. It’s still available, though expensive, it is a
    pressure fryer/cooker. Yeah, you can make fried chicken in it. I think,
    though, that I’ll try the method that Claude wrote about, though, since I
    don’t have an extra $300-$400 to spend. The whole low-pressure thing that
    the old Presto used (5 psi) got around the problem that he mentioned (I
    used to have one, too), but, honestly, I think his method might be better
    for several reasons. The chicken would definitely be cooked, and tender,
    also–assuming your oil temp is high enough–I think it would be less
    greasy. I hadn’t thought of incorporating the broth into a batter as I use
    a dry dredge. Thanks, Claude!
