| - Felt like good ol' heart-stopping fried chicken and didn't want to go through the distress of going to the KFC again, so thought, what the heck, Pizza Ranch has better reviews for their chicken than pizza. So, I found myself a deal online and ordered some fried fowl for delivery.
First, I will say, it did arrive faster than quoted, so that's always nice. I only ordered chicken and a side of mashed potatoes because I'm cheap and would rather have carbs over vegetables for a side any day. The mashed potatoes and gravy were a little to reminiscent of KFC for my tastes. Not horrible, just bland mashed potatoes with bland "chicken" gravy. But, it wasn't like I was expecting grandma's homemade mashed potatoes, so they get a pass.
As for the chicken. Well, it was good. I just really wanted to like it more than I did. It was crisp on the outside and moist on the inside like all good fried chicken should be. However, where I felt it was lacking was taste. The meat just seemed under-seasoned and a little too bland. Still, for fried chicken, Pizza Ranch is at least two steps ahead of KFC. And a bonus point for not making me sick. I probably won't be coming here for pizza, but the fried chicken will most likely bring me back as it's the closest I've found in the area that resembles the fried chicken recipe from my youth.
