Recreate McDonald's Chicken Big Mac at Home | Copycat Recipe

okay folks listen I know why you're here right cuz today we making a chicken Big Mac and guess what we doing it ab's way now we F to get down to the nitty gritty right so listen this right here is a chicken breast obviously right so what I want to do is you know it's real real thick so if we going to fry it this part down here will be ready way before this be the breast that mean it's going to dry out and all of that I'm going to show you guys just what you got to do right so we going to go ahead and take the Saran Wrap put this over top now you want to get yourself a meat tenderizer that's this right here cuz I want to flatten this and get it all one level to be honest with you I would like to get it about that level like how it is around here so I'm going grab this all right so I want you guys to look at this right here so what I do is I take these of course I'm not going to stick this raw bun on this raw chicken right I just take this over the top make sure I got a good size there and then I'll come over here to make sure I got a good size here and once I have that and that tells me folks that I'm ready to go now I got a Ziploc bag right here I want you guys to pay attention you want to cut this once you have it down you got it like this we going to marinate this we didn't already really tenderize the chicken already but we going to do a little bit more I'm going to do a couple of more pieces cuz everybody going to want one of these so it ain't no need for me to you know fake the funk all right so now I got another couple right we put these in the bag I'm not gonna bore you guys I'm gonna go ahead and just get these going you know what I mean cuzz I said I'm going to make three uh look like I'm have to make probably six so what I'm going to do is let me get this out the way let me clean this up and let me show you what I put in there and what we going to do is we going to marinade I say I like to marinade is when it come to chicken up to 4 hours you know what I mean but today I'm being honest with you I'm going to go ahead and Marin marinate these overnight and I'm going to see y'all in the morning stay tuned now with the chicken in the bag right you guys can put this in a bowl put some Saran Wrap over you know what I mean but when I'm doing my own dishes this is how I get down right so I'm going to add this to it which is buttermilk right and then we going to cover with the pickle juice now listen we didn't already beat it and you know tenderized it already but this right here going to take it to a whole another level and again I'm going just say by me using you know chicken breast you know what I mean uh trust me when I tell you guys you know what I mean so I'm going to do it like this and know you don't taste the pickle in there I got it some of y'all going to be like can you taste that no you cannot but you see that right there when I come back tomorrow I'm going to show you why this is what Mak Donalds wish they could make all right so look it's been overnight I just went ahead and put this in here just in case we had any leakage you don't want to clean your refrigerator right so we got that there I've already added some oil inside of my you know my Dutch oven I'm bringing this up to Temp we want to start at about 350 anywhere about 320 to 350 cuz look I'm going fry these twice but I want you guys to pay attention to this right here come here you see these trays right here I picked these up off of Amazon make my life a whole lot easier easy to keep up with right so if you guys are doing any type of breading station you can call it how you want to you can go wet no you can go uh uh flour into your wet into your dry then you can go back however you want to do it but I just thought these was neat anytime I find any of these things like this I'm going to let you guys know you guys can check down in the comment section uh below excuse me in the description uh box and I'll put like some kind of link to this these right here make sense now I am setting up a bread station and then check this out this is going to be my wet right so I'm coming out of this and going to go on to dry but I just wanted to show you guys this right here cuz I'm going to really be getting down with this you know this fall now as I'm waiting for this to come up to temp what I'm going to do is I'm going to take my flour and my corn starch and we just add it here now I got you guys you going to say man I don't need to do that I'm going to use a bowl but if you spend as much time in the kitchen as I do I like to have all of the nice uh utensils you know I mean they very inexpensive you know what I mean uh just levels up my game make me feel great you know what I mean and I'm able to do what I want to you know do what I want to do achieve that good good food not saying you got to have that but you got to have these all right so I'm going to go ahead and take and now we want to add all of our ingredients you know our dry ingredients right now I want you to pay attention to this before I go ahead and mix this with this whisk you see that right there I want to make sure you guys got enough seasoning and I'm going to say something to some of you new people out there that don't really uh haven't had nobody ever say this to you when I get to mixing this and getting everything to Merry and completely combined you have to taste your flour if your flour doesn't have any seasoning in it folks we got a problem so what do we do we just make an adjustment this ensures that what we make has great breading on the outside and it's good that's going to be one of the secrets the other secret is this right here is the fact that we marinated that the pickle juice was like a real secret you know what I mean a lot of people don't know that usually people put it in buttermilk add a little hot sauce you can put a couple of things in there you know as far as seasoning but listen that's going to be seasoned this is going to be super tender and again this is going to be what McDonald's wish they was making okay so look I went and got my candy tometer now we going to look and see where we at right submerge this in the you know inside of my oil we going to let that come up and we going to get a reading folks what we looking for again is about 320 that's cool cuz what I want to do is I just want to put it in there I'm going probably let it just stay in there for about 20 excuse me I'm going let it stay in there for about 3 minutes you know what I mean and uh we just see how the bread look then we going to take it out let it completely drip dry right here my cooling rack and then we going back in there to achieve 165 all right so now we F to make our Mac sauce I got to say it that way man cuz reason I say it that way cuz look this is not probably like the truest way to make it I know how to make I can get close to the mac sauce you know what I mean but this right here we want to just put this in here like this and this always starts with a little bit of that Mayo so after my Mayo I'm going to come over here I'm going to give you guys another Pro tip now this really I guess it's like personal you know personal to you guys how you like it right right but if you look I'm using Mount Olive sweet salad cubes what I'm going to do is I'm going hold this and I like to let some of the liquid just drain off right reason being I don't want that to become soupy I want it to stay with a little bit of that as much as that consistency of the mail as I can all right so now we back over here you guys know what I call this this that W sauce right so I'm just going to give this like a couple of little shakes you know what I mean uh again I love the flavor but I don't want this to be too soupy that's enough right there that's enough to just put a hint right so now we going to come with the when it comes let me give this a shake I know you guys famili with this mustard if you don't shake it up you know how it gives that liquid out of there we don't want that in there we want straight mustard right so I'm just going to give it a little bit and then we'll check now this is what I keep close to me shake up my ketchup talk to me is it hind or is it hunch y'all tell me just put a little bit in here how I get a little bit of that color right right now look at the color starting to look like mac sauce but this is AB sauce some of you guys make something like this but remember I was talking about that consistency see how it's not just running off of there that's what you want to have come on in here look that's what you should have something like that and the cool thing about this is listen we got all the ingredients right here we can just keep doing whatever we want to achieve the flavor that we like but don't forget on my website smoking and Grilling wab.com that's wab.com I'm going to get you guys is right the full downloadable and it's going to be printable you know what I mean our recipe is there all right so now we just going to you know shred our lettuce right all right so my temperature got a little high for me I think right now if you guys take a look at it it should be about 360 you know what I mean I'm letting it come down but first thing we getting ready to do well I'm going just say meanwhile I'mma come out of our brine oh man right look at that right there now I like to get as much of this off as possible and I got it there a little bit on the thin side but you want them that way I'm not going to overcrowd it we just use these two right now now I'm going to take one clean hand which will be this one right here this will be the one that I use to become wet right so I'm going just take some of my seasoned flour and if you guys pay attention you can look at the flour and say yeah that's season this is what I'm talking about folks all right let me just go ahead and flip this one over one thing about that flower boy when you drop something it kick a little wind back and boom now you see this right here look I'mma to pick it up you see how I bend this right here and we don't have nothing we want to get a little bit of that everywhere you know some our season flour everywhere you know what I mean so this is why I push it if it was like another piece of type of meat I would take it in my hand and just squeeze it I want to get it everywhere see how like now when I do it it's not as bad but we got some over here take your time folks get your breading on there right 360 not going to hurt me I like to use 350 and I know it's going to pull down anyway but don't forget we only going to be in here just for a couple of minutes right I mean when I say a couple that's what I mean so I look at it like this you see it had time to go ahead and soak so now I'mma put it in here now this is how I do mine I wave this back and forth like this let that kind of like seal up then when I come here I go let it and release it away from me like that right I'm going to do this one right now just to show you guys I'm going to concentrate on this one cuz we want this to be just right now as you guys can look right here you can see that I got myself another cooling rack cuz after two a couple of minutes in here I'm going to take that out and put it here and let it drip dry we going to let it cool then I'm going to start doing them 2 by two so after 2 minutes I want you guys to look at the color you know what I mean we just trying to get a little bit of the color on here get it cooked now what you're going to need is you're going to want to get yourself one of these meat thermometers right I have these in red and black but you see how it says smoking and Grilling with AB then you want to test it but I'm telling you it's not ready now cuz we only been in that hot grease only for about M I'm going to say about 2 and 1/2 minutes right so the next thing is I'm going to go ahead and do the rest of these so let me go ahead and get this going let me check make sure I done cooled a little bit it's best to do this when it's about 3:20 3:30 so I'm going to let this cool to that and I'm going do it we going to achieve the color we going to let them all stage once I got them all stag we going to raise it we going to go to uh 350 and then we going to cook them till we get to 165 don't forget we just want to go a couple of minutes right but look at that right there now we take this over here like this put that down and finish off the next two all right so my temp went up to 330 right now I'm done you know putting these in right so this was like the first one I'm going go ahead and just drop that in like that now we looking for 165 folks real simple you know what I mean uh so put them here and don't forget we got to have some type of read thermometer you know what I mean uh so that we able to even read them right so here it is it's not going to take [Music] long all right so listen now that I got my chicken it's cooling a little bit I'm going go ahead now you guys want to do this like I'm going to say do it at the same time you know what I mean but it's a lot trying to keep up with the temperature cuz you don't want to over cook you know you don't want to overcook your chicken right so I kind of like stayed over that way but if you guys got a better way of doing it you can do it that way that way all the stuff is ready at the same time right so I'm taking mail I'm opening up that discussion right now especially for those who don't uh who have never had mayo or so they think they never had Mayo on a bun you know what I mean I prefer to have the Mayo over butter this gives me a more of a real buttery taste than anything you know so if you had it let me know down in the comment section below some of y'all going to chime in I know cuz a lot of people didn't know and now they tell me when they see me doing it they be like AB I don't do it no other way but the mail all right so let's look at this one oh yeah that's what you want to have actually I'm going to set this on there too just to get a little Char on the bottom you see that one right there yeah that's good this one right here I rotate that one and that one I'mma to put in the middle so I'm going to go ahead and take this one off we'll just let these two stay on here I'm going move that one over there cuz obviously it's a little bit on the hotter side over that way and we're going to go ahead and get that going but look at that right there folks oh my goodness and you want to know are they soft all right so everything is ready tell me that don't look like a work apart you know what I mean as far as toasting your buns that's it right there right so the first thing I'm getting ready to do is I'm going to take this one right here and I'm going to go ahead and set him down right there right now we going to do it this way I'm going to put my sauce on there we going to put a little bit of the shredded lettuce then we going to put the cheese why cuz we want I want you guys to think like why would he put the cheese on top like that reason being we want to the chicken to go ahead and help the cheese melt right so I like to put a little bit like this on here I know it look like I'm putting it on heavy but there a reason to it it's a method to this madness right put it it on like that now I'm going to come with this American I really want to call it you know just the way we call this that good cheese that's all I'm going say we take that we go ahead and just lay him on there like that right and now I'm going to take one of these patties right here check it out and I'mma put this right here on top right now we got to have a center bun let me go on over here and get that here go that Center bun folks I'm going to go ahead and hit it you know what I mean don't have to go as heavy on one side right for me I like to put a little sauce right here right I'm going to go ahead and set this down I did say this is like a Big Mac a chicken Big Mac right so we F to get it right folks then we going to go ahead and just repeat the same thing that we had down on the bottom one it's getting hard for me to talk cuz you guys can hear it in my voice like yes sir after the lettuce now I'm going to go ahead and just add my pickles on here now you guys add whatever type of pickles you want you know what I mean all but we going to put those on just like that and now I'm getting ready to take this slice of cheese and put this over the top like that and guess what folks we going to put that last Patty right here on top right now
