- Make the brine.In a separate container, mix together buttermilk, hot sauce, and 3 tablespoons each of Musket Powder White and Red label seasonings.
- Marinate chicken thighs in the brine for at least one hour, but overnight is best.
- Fry the chicken thighs.Preheat fryer to 350°F and get the dredge and brined chicken ready.
-
Wearing food-safe gloves, Pull a piece of chicken from the brine and into the dredge and cover completely. Press down onto the chicken making sure it’s completely coated.
Note: Depending on the size of your fryer, we recommend frying only one to two pieces at a time. If you have too many chicken thighs in the fryer at one time, you will overload the fryer and they will not cook evenly. - Lay the chicken down into the fryer and cook until the internal temp hits 165°F.
- Remove the chicken thigh from the fryer and salt immediately, as well as a light dusting of Musket Powder White Label seasoning.
- Serve on a piece of toasted texas toast with our alabama white sauce and garnish with a pickle.
