Jack thinks ghee is beef tallow.
Oh goodie, more horrible porkrind crusts that ruin the flavor of whatever protein you actually want since they dominate the flavor profile, especially when burnt like this. Also doesn't help I don't like pig skin at all as a treat. Let's do a quick runthrough of this shitshow since it's been a while:
1. After the AI voice gurns out the show we're about to watch, and I still don't know why this retard does that, Jack shows a bit of Wernicke's Aphasia by rambling "welcome to the show. Jack Scalfani. Cooking with Jack show". But don't worry, Daddy-God will totally fix the damage without any intervention whatsoever...
or else.
2. Jack shows off the ingredients and admits that the thighs of the chicken are his favorite parts, since it's the fattiest part of the bird and has more meat to consume compared to wings. His other ingredients are a shitty pork rind crumb gimmick you have to buy from special sources, buttermilk, and ghee he confuses for beef tallow since he can't read.
3. I will also note that if you're going to marinade your bird, you can and should at least ensure that the marinade has aromatics and spices. He's just going to let the acids and salts destroy this bird overnight because Jack still hasn't learned shit and never will with his brain damage.
4. Jack suggests butter, bacon grease, and so on as other frying options, which is funny because his other suggestions either barely get to temp without burning in the case of butter, or fucking burn like how bacon grease does if you fry chicken. Jack funnily enough picked a winner with ghee (begins burning at about 480 F), and he doesn't even know it.
5. "Everything here is gud" ~ No it goddamn isn't
6. Jack is going hard on fade cuts this time. He cuts rapidly between pouring the buttermilk on the thighs, to then rapidly changing it to a Mommy-Wife laid out mise en place. It's funny he's putting this much effort into this even though he couldn't be fucked to do a Christmas special.
7. Jack calls the egg wash "scrambled eggs". I mean sure, yeah you can argue that but that's not the correct term if you're going to shit up the kitchen by frying.
8.
@Quixotic Man already covers why his battering method sucks; he goes wet-wet-dry without fucking bothering to dry the birds off from their acid bath, meaning this shit ain't sticking. I will also note that Jack mentions there's no need to add seezening because Mommy-wife told him the horrible pork rinds have it already.
9. That reminds me, I personally think italian herbs suck shit at southern style frying; this is more of a pan fried chicken cutlet/schnitzel sort of seasoning in my opinion.
10. Narcissist pretends he will ever rate something as less than "really good". That's like one of my bigger pet peeves, since there's no way he'll ever say something he makes suck. Even if it's not even his recipe or even if he thinks the idea sucks he'll defend it simply because he made it.
11. No clue how hot Jack's stove top gets, but I will say that after the slowest dredging in batter mixes I've ever seen I don't think ghee should be browned. It's probably just the pork rinds burning in the clarified butter, but it's definitely not something you want to see. Also as mentioned by Quixotic Man, not enough oil for this to work. You can't deep fry it and there's too much for pan frying, so it's going to fuck with the texture due to a lack of consistency.
12. The final results look really uneven, with several bits of pork rind being badly burned. It's almost like when you don't fully submerge something and you have the heat on beyond what's needed it might not cook evenly. Jack then calls the big batch of fried chicken dinner, and complains that his ass backwards way of dredging made it hard for the rinds to stick.
13. Jack finishes this farce with his Subordinary Meat Stump, him begging for you to sub and share this shitshow, and rolling his eyes like he's possessed or seeing Daddy-God when the fried chicken hits his tongue due to the ghee oozing down his throat. He then asserts it's cooked to temp and moos that it's gud, but you know that means it's a bit raw given his fucked texture preferences.
Not kidding, there's a strong Homer Simpson eating the Ribwich energy for his reaction to this, like he almost died right then and there from all that ghee bursting inside his mouth.
