Liver and gizzards are for making gravy. 
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

Ick, they're for the dogs.  Something to make them feel like part of the family while the humans sit around feasting on turkey and all the trimmings.

Don't do chicken liver, or any other kind of liver unless it's been turned into pate.

Gizzards ...not a chance.

I take the stuff in the bag in the turkey or roasting chicken and put it in with chicken broth, onion, parsley, thyme and sage....cook on low for several hours. Strain it, and pull all the meat off of the neck, and add to my gravy. The other stuff, goes in the trash...where it belongs.
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

Thigh/leg...   KFC Extra-crispy...

NOTHING was as good as Grandma's fried chicken... huge cast-iron skillet, lard, the whole 9 yards...

As an aside, Grandma made the absolute best 7-steaks and gravy ever... it was my favorite, and she made it for me many times...   I sure miss her!!

Sounds delish.
Now, in 20 or 30 years my grandson is gonna be sitting around reminiscing about his dear grandma's super duper KFC chicken.  It counts if I drive out to pick up a bucket, yes? :rotf:

This thread got me to thinking about my grandmothers roast beef.
The absolute best thing I remember her making when I was a kid.

I grew up, moved away and came home only every few years.  When grandma was about 80 years old I came home to visit and she was still on the go and asked me what I would like for supper as she wanted to cook for me.    I asked for her roast beef that I had loved so much as a kid.

She made her special recipe for me and ----It tasted down right Blah. Nothing like I remembered and so wanted to taste again.  What the heck had happend.???

I think my mom got it right when I cried on her shoulder, that as kids, we get hungry and will eat anything.  Time goes on and we remember the happy times of our youth and the food we ate and come to as adults remember the meals we ate with abandon and connect them to our loved ones that cooked the meals.

This came home to me when my oldest daughter asked me to make the bean soup I had fed her and siblings when they were growing up.

I did so and she was not happy with the soup at all.  My soup was nothing as she remembered it, same recipe, same stuff but the years had either changed her taste buds or without her siblings and her around the table as little kids ---things had changed.

We eat Holiday meals every year, that keeps the smell and taste the same, but if you go 15 years not eating a certain food, things happen.   

Except for turkey and baked ham, bread baking in the oven or Cinnamon rolls.   

What I ate as a kid and did not eat as an adult for years---things are not the same.

Thighs.

KFC was pretty good back in the 60's and 70's... then they seemed to get pretty awful in the 80's and  90's. Now they seem to be back on an upswing in quality. I got one of those free Oprah grilled chicken coupon lunches last year, that was really good.

At one time, Hardees was doing fried chicken. That was as good as Popeyes, if not better. They didn't have the spicy stuff, though.

I used to love Hardees. They did roast beef sandwiches similar to Arby's. Plus their breakfast is the best. We don't have one where I live now though. The 2 we had closed. They were sucky, but I loved Hardee's biscuit and gravy, and their steak biscuit is good too. Or it used to be when I was little. Maybe it was just good to me then, and I'd despise it now. Still, I wish we had one.
