    Of those, it used to be KFC but now Popeye's I think. The original recipe at KFC seems to have changed.

    Well to answer your question, Church's takes the cake. It's a danged shame we don't have one in Ames... or DSM... or Iowa...

    I think Church's is solid, but doesn't seem special to me, but of course as I type this it sounds really good.

    I liked that they had those mini pecan pies there also.

    Bojangles is hands down the best fried chicken I've ever had. It's only in the South though.

    re: Best restaurant to buy fried chicken?

    Hy-vee
    Pizza Ranch
    Sneaky's (best fried chicken in Sioux City)

    Really after awhile, all of the great ones taste the same.

    You must work at a good hy-vee. The ones I've worked at you would see them sit there 6+ hours.

    re: Best restaurant to buy fried chicken?

    pizza ranch is pretty good, especially when you compare it to their pizza, which is not good at all. Hy-Vee is pretty good. KFC is probably the worst. The original recipe is soggy and grease, the extra crispy has so much breading on it, you wonder if there is really any chicken in there, or is it just a big lump of dough fried up.

    Though there is a road-side cart near the Ahmed Masood circle in Kabul that is pretty darned good, if you ignore the dust, flies, and nearby sheep being slaughtered.

    Popeye's Cajun chicken is the best. Hard to beat when you take it home and have it with a couple beers.
