Happy Birthday Terry!
What a busy day I had today. I did lots of errands, most of them to help James get ready for his Mountain Man Rendezvous trip on Thursday. I went to Cracker Barrel and bought a cast iron skillet with a lid so James will be able to make fried chicken one night. I went to Joann's Fabrics and bought material and a pattern to make a shirt for him. I went to Walmart and bought all the stuff for fried chicken so we can try out the receipe James wants to make. I also bought diet coke and Hershey's kisses with almonds for Terry's birthday and then I stopped at Sweet Daddy's and got him a 'Mother Lode' chocolate cupcake because Cathi says he's a chocoholic.
Before James got home from work I soaked his chicken in a water and salt brine for two hours. Then I coated it with flour, cornmeal, spices, buttermilk and eggs, set it on a wire rack and let it sit in the refrigerator for two hours before cooking it. James actually cooked it in the cast iron skillet I bought and in my cast iron dutch oven. It turned out delicious! It was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I think it will be a big hit! We shared with Stacy's family and they liked it too.
