01 Buttermilk Marinade:
Ingredients
- Chicken Leg
  2
- egg
  1
- buttermilk
  1 cup
- hot sauce
  1 tbsp
- pickle juice
  1 tbsp
Instructions
1. If you don't have butter milk you can make it yourself by combining 1 cup warm milk + 1TB lemon juice and wait 20 minutes.
2. whip up some beaten eggs with buttermilk, hot sauce, pickle juice, and maybe a bit of berbere (1/2TB) and MSG(1/2TB) if you're feelin' fancy
3. your going to allow your chicken to sit in this AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. I can’t stress this enough, the deliciousness here is increasing exponentially the longer you let it sit. Overnight for optimal results, but if you lack proper planning skill, I’ll accept 2-4 hours.
