Ingredients

  • Rub:
  • 4 cups white sugar
  • 1/4 cup chili powder
  • 1/4 cup paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons ground celery seed
  • 2 tablespoons smoked hickory salt
  • 1/4 cup meat tenderizer
  • 1/4 cup salt
  • 2 tablespoons onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 10 pieces fresh chicken, desired bone-in parts

  • 1 teaspoon lemon-pepper
  • 1 teaspoon no-salt seasoning
  • Big Mama's Rub
  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • Canola oil, for frying

Preparation

Step 1

Rub:
Place all ingredients into a resealable container and mix until thoroughly combined.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cover each piece of chicken in buttermilk, then lemon-pepper, no-salt seasoning and Big Mama's Rub, to taste. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator overnight so that the meat can absorb some of the liquid.

Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and dredge in self-rising flour.

Fry the chicken in a 1/2-inch of canola oil in the bottom of a roasting pan in the preheated oven. Fry the chicken for 15 minutes per side
