Gizzards and hearts are popular here, but I can't recall any of the fried chicken places doing them.Originally Posted by mayhem008
Up here, we get mainly chicken and duck gizzards (also hearts and livers). For a time I lived further south and it was also easy to get goose organs. Fried isn't that common, but they are often boiled or grilled. There are small shops that specialize in the boiled organs and a few other things that are popular food when drinking, your order is often dressed with a splash of oil that is spicy and numbing (ma la).
Aside from the organs that we eat with some frequency (heart, gizzard, and liver), cleaned and boiled duck intestines are popular. The duck intestines are usually dressed with the same kind of spicy oil, often quite spicy to get you to drink more. Some places have goose intestines, but I don't recall those being served spicy.
Since things like hearts and gizzards are popular snacks when drinking, they are regularly served at the various stuff on skewers places. Once the weather warms up there will be BBQ places all over, and it is popular to hang out there with beer and various skewers of stuff cooked over a smokey grill and usually seasoned with a blend of spices running heavy on chili peppers and salt (yep, they're making good money on beer).
With COVID-19 making its impact on our lives, I have decided that I shall hang in there for my remaining days, skip some meals, try to get children to experiment with making henna patterns on their skin, and plant some trees. You know -- live, fast, dye young, and leave a pretty copse. I feel like I may not have that quite right.
The image is unfortunately large, but here is a link to a recipe for buttermilk biscuits. In the US those are a kind of bread, often associated with the American South. You'll have to scroll down a bit to find the biscuits.

Biscuits with jelly:
They can be a bit like a scone. In some forms they are a little sweet, but not all are. They may be served with butter and jelly, but it is also common to serve them with cream gravy containing sausage or a form of dried meat. They can also be combined with things like eggs, cheese and ham to make a breakfast sandwich.Originally Posted by BalwickZaik

Fried chicken means (to me) actual whole pieces of chicken. I don't count nuggets or similar as fried chicken. My favorit is if its made in the oven, instead of deep fried.
Covered in spices and grinded cornflakes it is really delicious
I like Churches Fried Chicken. I usually get their spicy leg and breast with a few jalapeno peppers since I love spicy food. I used to have one by me but it closed down. I think it was just used for money laundering since they were open really odd hours (6pm to 8pm, closed on Wednesday) and had their lights on 24 hours a day.
The best fried chicken I had was from S+L which is more like a pub. Their chef won master chef Canada with it.
