Son, you need to go to church..........for fried chicken repentance!

Back when I was a wee laddie, I remember Church's Chicken used to serve dinner rolls. Not caring about carbs back then, I would slice open the rolls, smear some mashed potatoes and gravy in it and commit carb overload. Sadly, a long time ago, Church's went away with their rolls in favor of biscuits. However, the great taste of their fried chicken has thankfully remained.

Church's is my favorite fried chicken chain. Other people can have their Popeye's, their KFC's - gimme Church's, cupcake!

I often receive their coupons in the mail. I frequently use the $6/5 legs & thighs, 2 sides and 2 biscuits. The chicken is always moist, juicy, tender and meaty. My favorite are the wings, which include part of the shoulder. The sides - you can't go wrong with the mashed potatoes and that delicous gravy, along with some fried okra.

Church's has offered up some new items, such as the Big Tex sandwich and the Texas Chicken. The Texas Chicken is an unbreaded 1/2 chicken. I tried it a few months ago, with my tastebuds protesting the excess salt. Hey, stick to the fried chicken & you can't go wrong!

A handful of tables are availabe for dining in, but Church's is best eaten at a party, at a picnic or in the comfort of home while watching "Dancing with the Stars." ;p

Parking is ample in a private lot shared by 7/11, El Pollo Loco and other businesses. Service has always been good.

I highly recommend Church's Chicken for some quick and delicious fried chicken. KFC be damned! ;p
