tony b Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 Love Szechuan peppercorns, so that one would be my choice here. My "standard" fried chicken recipe is something similar to the first one, but with Frank's hot sauce in the buttermilk marinade instead of the cayenne. I'll pass on those dipping sauces. The last one, all I can say is "Meh!" Nothing going on there for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
