I've heard the chicken at Chick-fil-A is soaked in dill pickle juice as well.

Not the regular chicken. They marinate their chargrill, spicy and chicken strips, but I'm not sure about the pickle juice.

I do know for a fact that MSG is in just about every product they sell. The breading that goes on the chicken, the milk wash that you dip the chicken into, the salad dressings, pretty much everything other than the fresh fruits and vegetables. Take the MSG out and I'm positive the chicken won't taste as good.

The confederate gold is buried out at the old Titshaw place near Winterville, where the old train line ran out to Smithonia plantation, just west of Arnoldsville.

Don't know about the spicy since it's newer, but the others are marinated....just NOT in pickle juice.

If you want a chicken sandwich marinated in pickle juice, Catch 22 on Epps can hook you up. Get a "Bad Mother Clucker". Good eats.

Just enjoying my chicken sandwich with extra pickles at a picnic table in the bright sunshine.

It was crowded today and I had to place my order with a curbside waiter with a headset holding one of those tablets. At the drive thru window a young lady greeted me but a man in a Patagonia vest actually waited on me and handed me my sandwich with a special order sticker attached thereto. It must have been Patagonia vest day as I saw others through the window clad in such attire. Something about a secret handshake.

The sandwich was very good BTW. Next up most likely tomorrow will be a sampling of the KFC Georgia Gold.....

And that sammich was FRESH and HOT, was it not?

Yes it was.

And now you know the SECRET. Extra pickles. Every. Time.

I will have to confess that was my first time ever to try that combination. But it was actually very good.

Yeah, my wife turned me on to it years ago. Even having worked there before, I never thought much about it....but it's GOOD. Try adding some ranch to it and even Polynesian sauce (separately, of course). That stuff is GOOD(er)!

I worked there when the buffalo sauce came out. Mixing that with ranch I ate so many nuggets in the back while cooking

I used to eat the hell outta some cheesecake while on the clock...

It's funny what you can come up with when you're bored and working around seemingly endless ingredient choices. My first job was at Burger King in 1996. The thing I used to make for my own lunch all the time:

I got a chicken sandwich, added ham (this was when they had the "hot ham & cheese"), bacon, cheese, and pickles. Steamed it to melt the cheese real good and topped it off with ranch dressing. That thing was AWESOME! Even tried adding onion rings once, which wasn't too bad actually.

Nice work!

The vest thing is freaky, but I'm more concerned about how they they put the pickles on the bottom instead of on top. They sent you a message Counselor.

Let's figure it out. Are you able to recall the exact scenario and words you used to order? Did you happen to change your mind ten times or so mid order or leave a two car gap in the drive-thru line at any point while you read GSB on your phone?
