No. 56The one piece to order
The fried chicken biscuit (or the Bad Grampa)
A drive-through biscuit stand Food Network found, and in our Chapel Hill guide.
4 hr brine (or overnight), 30 min · 4 sandwiches. The sandwich behind 20ft, Ekiben-style buns and every chicken shop with a line: boneless thigh (never breast; it stays juicy) brined, double-dredged and fried hard, on a soft toasted bun with sharp pickles and slaw to cut it.
