My dad calls it Cornell Chicken, my mom calls it Grampy Cleveland's Chicken, some people call it Firehouse Chicken...I'll give you my dad's recipe which is my favorite. So, here is Cornell Chicken:
1 1/3 c. oil
2/3 c. white vinegar
1/3 c. salt
1 tsp. poultry seasoning
2 eggs
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend about 20 seconds...not too long or it will turn into mayonnaise! It will look white and foamy like this
Next, is also your own preference, you can marinate it for a few hours
or baste it while it cooks.
Normally, if you do both it will end up too salty. We usually marinate it then baste it once halfway through. It develops a lovely, salty crust on the skin that is heavenly.
The ultimate menu would be this chicken, potato salad (I have a good recipe for that, too) and some baked beans. Enjoy!
I've been MEANING to ask him for that recipe! Thank you! ;)

ReplyDeletethat sounds really good. I am always looking for great chicken recipes as we eat a lot of poultry in our home!! thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteHey Jenn,
ReplyDeleteJust found this post...I am marinating my chicken as I type. This looks so yummy...my hubby loves his salt so he will adore this. I used a good olive oil and cider vinegar(all I had). Love the taste of the marinade on it's own, so I know the chicken is going to be fabulous!
