Grocery stores hands-down. And cheaper to boot. Deli's tend to attract workers who actually give a shit about food, instead of dumbfuck teenagers, inner city spillover, or someone just doing it to support their habit. Case in point, KFC makes absolutely the worst fried chicken, despite the fact that it's literally the main point of their job to fry chicken.

Blackened means coated in a spice mixture (usually cajun) and sauteed quickly over high heat with butter causing the outside to char.

From their website: traditional buttermilk ranch dressing mixed with onion, garlic, a blend of peppers (white, black and red) and Blackened seasoning.

i had them this past week. they're are normal tenders. the only thing "wild pepper" about them is the sauce they serve with it (good sauce btw), which I had to go back in and ask for because they forgot to put it in the bag. The ones I got had been sitting in the warming tray for too long, so they were too rubbery. Fresh out of the fryer popeye's spicy chicken is really good tho, so is Church's fresh fried chicken
