The Chicken King presents Grampy D’s original recipe.

This week the Soul Forge Podcast crew is on location. We find ourselves at Bruni’s Fine Foods for a taste testing. David Poluck from Northern Jewellery and Crafts is the Chicken King. He has created a unique chicken coating mix. The event and subsequent interview are in this episode.

In David’s own words, the idea for a deep fried coating mix began with a conversation:

“In a world saturated with fast-food chains and pre-packaged coating mixes, it all began with two friends who found themselves in a discussion about something more when it came to fried chicken. Dissatisfied with the limited options available whether it was the greasy offerings from chain restaurants or the uninspiring coating mixes he found at his local grocery store I made a decision to take matters into my own hands and embark on a journey that would eventually lead to the creation of Grampy D’s original Recipe’s”

David tells us about his childhood influences and the cooks in his life. Creating an easy, yet not greasy coating mix takes time. Four and a half months, and many chicken dinners later, the recipe was perfect. Designed for bone-in chicken, you must reduce cooking time for boneless poultry.

At this tasting event, we sampled air-fried, deep-fried and oven roasted cooking methods. About 15 people participated in the event. Their thoughts are in this episode. There is also a fish coating mix that we did not try.

You can buy Grampy D’s coating mix in a variety of places. Here in Sault Ste. Marie, it is available at Bruni’s Fine Foods, Pino’s Get Fresh, RJ’s Market and Northern Jewellery. Algonquin Outfitters sells the product. Grampy D’s is found in Sturgeon Falls and on Amazon.

Phoebe from Eat At Sault Ste Marie was also at the event. You can follow her page at https://www.facebook.com/Eatssm
