Taste Test

Randall's fried chicken. Samosa caught my eye. got that too.

Samosa was pretty crappy.  What do you expect though from the grocery store.  It was like a 1.5 and I will never make that mistake again.  Tried it on the kids and none of them liked it either.


Sad veggie samosa
 

Randall's fried chicken however was really good.  Hubs favorite food is the fried chicken.  He's been steadily making his way down the list of recommended fried chicken in the  area.  Randall's--yes the supermarket-- is on that list.
 
Good crispy coating although for me it was a bit overdone.  Good spicy flavor that didn't overwhelm.  Very subtle.  Chicken meat was also great  Brined before frying which is the way I like it.  I thought this was great chicken.  Hubs, just ok.  we got 8 pieces for $6.99 which I also thought was pretty good.  However when you consider that none of the kids would touch it for whatever reason then it's not such a great deal.  No. 3 Son wound up pulling the container of chicken onto the kitchen floor and the dog went after it faster than I think I have ever seen him move.  At that point I think there were 2 pieces left.  He grabbed one and and ran around with a giant thigh hanging out of his maw until I shamed him into dropping it.  After that No. 2 Daughter ran around all night yelling at him to "release" whether he had anything to release or not.  Poor dog. :(

I'd get the Randall's again.  Way less greasy than Popeyes and I lie the spice level better.  Next time I will try it leftover.  I have a suspicion it is killer when it's a day old and cold.
3.5
