Making the Burger King Original Chicken Sandwich At Home | But Better 

Legend

DO IT

Cook "but better" of any BK food, then eat it for lunch break. It really do be the biggest flex on BK

Use their fryers so you get that authentic BK oil flavor

I wish their food was like it was in the 70s.

So good!

Not even cap

@@john.c Yes, same. I have a composting toilet, so I just keep recycling my lettuce/compost

Keep in mind that everyone fast food join is going to be different. The Wendy's near where I used to work was fantastic and I say this having made Josh's chicken sandwiches before.

It is not that you get it fresh, you just get it on a good day with new oil. Here is what most people do not understand, the oil gets used for a few days, and the quality is based on how new the oil is. Here is what you do, the next time you get one fresh, just go back for the next couple days, and you will see the quality is worse. Then after a few days the quality will be great again once they change the oil. The first job i ever had was at Burger King, and everything looks great for the first couple days of the oil use, but by the third day everything is dark, and gets hard rapidly. Of course the burgers and everything else stays the same daily, but all the deep fried food depends on how fresh the oil is. It is the same at all fast food places, they all use the oil for a few days. Nonetheless, if the oil is fresh or just a couple days old, I would say Burger King has the best chicken sandwich of all the fast food restaurants. Everybody has copied it for years. Burger King always had the mayo and lettuce chicken sandwich, and everybody simply copied it.

@@sergiodelburquevelasquez5666 WORD!

I order it with Cheese, the its fresh mostly

Facts they are so good

Is it the same as the Long Chicken?

I remember when the burger king 1st added chicken to the menu my mom wouldn't let me order it. when I was old enough to work, I went and got me a burger king chicken sandwich I hated it.

If available, try the vegan chicken one. (in germany it is called the Long Chicken and there's a vegan option). Imo it's essentially the same (texture, mouthfeel, etc), but better tastewise.

i bought a burger king original chicken sandwich it was salty af like they just took a handful of salt and slaped that shit on there. never again lmao.

You really don’t need to whisk it by hand. It’s actually pretty easy to make using an immersion blender, and you can even get the consistency pretty thick if you prefer that.

A food processor works just fine! I made it with a little $15 one from Walmart and everyone thought it was the best sauce ever!

If only he weren't so high-and-mighty about the stuff he tries to emulate.

I'd say pretty accurate most of the time. Half of fast food just isn't really food 😂

Gordon Ramsey would be harsh.

@@KimberleyBlue it's mostly an act for the channel, in interviews for other channels he's mentioned he likes eating out all the time since cooking fine all the time is tiring and time consuming

@@KimberleyBlue how do you not notice the sattire attitude? Are you just that socially inept or you purposefully ignoring it to shit talk? geniually curious

I agree I would love to see that one also as it is the only fast food chicken sandwich I eat

They have a crazy good Ch'king sandwich and he picked the cheaper grosser option... Weakness Joshua. Hit the best sandwich at the store.

@@justinmccarthy307 I think he did that because the chi'king is very similar to Chick-fil-A, Popeyes, and KFC, while this atrocity of a sandwich is more unique, a sandwich he hasn't really done before. Just my interpretation

@@greggmundkowsky5798 have you tried kfc

Me too, but sometime around or after the 90's, I noticed that the taste became worse.

True though

Bacon cheeseburger better

That, texas whopper and the rodeo burger. Where I livr the burger kings are actually good and most I've been to are mid so I'm lucky

True 😇 although, I live 2min away from a MacDonald's and most of the time the burgers look and taste just as bad at the restaurant versus bringing them home 😔

And maybe stop being so extra… it would be nice to see you not hate on everything, every single THING that you don’t make!

Nah fuck that let him be as extra as he wants! Seeing him obliterate every fast food chain as the garbage they are is the best, and I say this as someone hopelessly addicted to the stuff. And he’s said before that his own food is left out in the cold on the counter for a bit and not eaten immediately fresh as the camera crew have to prepare everything first, so the fast food has no excuse!

@@munkeycrew2111 that's part of his show. It's like gordon ramsay Also, editing to say, josh is right in this instance. BK is fucking garbage and has been for a long time.

@@munkeycrew2111 You're the only one hating on anything.

@ stop hating and get a life

@ Yeah. It doesn't matter if they have color or not. Watch who you like. Don't hate on who you don't.

@ bro I watch CWT and have made some of her recipes. She’s outstanding but no way she’s on Papa’s level. You’re a dick for calling her out like this for a beating

@ bruh its just a food video... chill with the signal boosting.

@ Why would you come here with this energy? I doubt she'd be pleased with your lack of diplomacy.

This. Sure, if I spend twenty times the amount of... well, time, five times the money, and having to clean entire appliances, no shit it'll prob turn out better.

@@techpriestemily what was expensive about this? The mayo makes a big quantity that you can store for later, you don’t need to grind chicken at home as its readily available at butchers and most grocery stores, and the bread is easily accessible. I think its a small price to pay for much higher quality food.

@@techpriestemily you can get the ingredients with your weekly shopping and even prep the chicken ahead of time and freeze it, would still taste 10x better than bk

That’s pretty much his entire series called but cheaper

Hey bud, that’s literally the whole point of his other series “But cheaper” the whole point of this series, and I know you might know this but hey because of you’re comment it seems like you might’ve forgotten, is “but better” where Josh makes famous food, but better! Hope you found this helpful, idiot

I think we all did ngl

💀

I did too lol

No way, that sausage egg and cheese croissan’wich is amazing.

Lmfaoooo same

Spot on 💯💯💯

They have been reducing the spices in the breading for years. The last reduction completely obliterated all flavor.

100% agree. this is the only thing i’ve ordered there since early childhood and the quality has dipped drastically in the past few years no matter the location

Blud wrote a whole essay but before October 7th I ate at bk and I agree with your point

@ why u gotta bring race into this mane

@ Gotta be the stupidest shit lve ever read on the internet 😭 bro thinks he’s the white night for minority chefs

@ who gives a sh*t. Dude is has never claimed to be better than others, especially not better than cooks who are not white (how can you not feel stupid bringing colour into this, i‘m hard cringing rn)

@ you are the problem

@ u sounding like a hater rn bro ngl

Don't worry McDonalds is shit everywhere except maybe in Japan

Yeah fam the vegan royale is so dank

Wait what kind of mayo are they using if its vegan?

@@girthbender2779 there is vegan Mayo, there are lots of them. Non egg based emulsifiers and any oil works. Typically it’s grapeseed

@@thenormandycrewwrex garlic is also a great emulsifier

His videos are super entertaining! I love them!!

Same! It has a certain taste and that’s what I go back for only.. brings me back to my childhood when I ordered them instead of whoppers .

Burger King veggie burger is alright. I only like it when they heat the patty through their broiler though. Microwaved veggie patty tastes like card board.

Das Lange huhn?

@@papacitoloko1117 mcd's tastes like card board as well. But I eat it sometimes bcz of that 5% of flavour that you cant even taste.

No fast food restaurant has good options, ever. At all! It’s trash food, so bad for your body. Sorry not sorry to kill your vibe, just a thought…

@@_danymal yep it's all trash. Burger King doesn't even taste like the burger king from 10 years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they replaced all their products with the impossible (soy product) meats. Chicken nuggets tastes like card board too. How does that even happen?

I kinda agree, and doubt they will actually take it off the menu

I love this channel, but if you think this is "chill" you might wanna get a check up, my friend..

I agree, Josh is good … but most of the time “but better” should be called “but different”. Of course the things he does will turn out better when he uses ingredients the subject item doesn’t use ! That’s not hard… what he should be doing is sticking with the original subject and working within those limits . Basically what he’s doing is saying “here’s a fast food beef burger … im going to see if I can make it better by using filet mignon”…. No shit it’s gonna be better . That’s not a challenge 😂

Have you seen the long list of unnecessary ☠️ ingredients in these fast food sandwiches 🥪😡 .Most definitely better 😉 imo..

that’s great! definitely spread some roasted garlic butter on it!

@@corrosivecub good advice

Good god, that is an unfortunate sentence

@@AllesZuSpaet53 not unfortunate

In the 80's they had a taco pizza -- and that thing was bomb

@@StacyODell Pizza Hut still has taco pizza.

The taco pizza and the Priazzo were my favorites. I rarely get pizza hut anymore but I recently ordered the tastemaker with bacon, beef and jalapenos...not bad.

ITS STILL PROOFING STOP HONKING!

YES!!! As a fellow Clevelander, Mr. Hero is always my go to!

Ayy! Fellow Clevelander lets go! Roman burgers were always so good!

Honestly probably the worst thing I've tried on a fast food menu by far.

Weird cause it’s one of my favorite fast food items of all time

I actually disagree with this one, I think it's pretty good

@ his videos are called “but better” for a reason.

@ Nope, I don’t see any.

Follow up to my previous post. I remade the same chicken veggie wrap for my parents last night. My Mother immediately said, "I need to get this Chicken Recipe!" Just goes to show what the best aspect of the dinner was. Once again, thank you Papa!

My fav series but better

Maybe a little bit of chicken thigh deboned as it has more fat than chicken breast instead of pork fat.

I second that, usually I google the substitute. Just made it without the pork and was just amazing.

My suggestion would be to use something like lamb fat or rendered beef tallow
