Method

Preparation time

25 minutes

Brine the chicken thighs overnight in the buttermilk for at least 4-5 hours.
Prepare the spiked flour.
Heat your oil to 180ºC.
Combine the slaw.
Toast your buns.
Take the chicken out of the brine and place in the spiked flour. You can dip back in the brine and back into the flour for super extra crispy chicken.
Gently place the chicken into the hot oil and cook until you reach an internal temp of 75ºC. We sometimes go to 80ºC with thigh meat.
Build the burger - bottom bun, slaw, crispy hot chicken, pickles then top bun. And there we have a delicious Tennessee Hot Chicken Burger.
