- Only one can be crowned the chicken king.
- Let's talk about it.
(upbeat music)
"Good Mythical Morning".
- People love fried chicken
so much so that KFC actually released
a fried chicken scented sunscreen,
and it sold out within two hours.
- People must have been just
shooting it straight in the mouth.
- No, they were slathering it on themselves,
and just smell like fried chicken on the beach man.
- And shoving it from the cheek into the face.
- I love fried chicken,
not enough to smell like it when I'm tanning,
but maybe today will change my mind.
- Yes, and we've already tested our knowledge of nuggets,
but now we're gonna go bigger with chicken on the bone.
As we play
are we correctly picking this finger licking fried chicken?
- As you can see we can't.
Now today we're gonna be sampling
the drumstick portion of the chicken,
which is the part that makes music.
- Music in your mouth.
We're going to be consuming drumsticks
from the following establishments.
Popeye's.
- KFC.
- Church's.
- Roscoe's.
- The grocery store.
- And Bojangles.
- Okay, and this one's gonna work very simply,
we're gonna have them brought in
on the patent pending drum chick.
Which is just an updated version of the chick,
now made exclusively for dark meat.
- Woo, and the winner will be crowned chicken king.
- Yeah.
- And will literally be crowned,
it's gonna be awesome.
- There's a crown.
- Let's taste.
- [Voiceover] Round one.
- All right, bring in the drum chick.
Let me take a bite.
- Oh, I smell it.
Oh, there it is.
Hey baby.
- Oh man, I am hungry and that's good.
This is a good day.
- I miss fried chicken man,
we don't eat it enough.
The world needs more fried chicken.
- I eat fried chicken every time
I pass a place that sells it I think.
- You don't pass a lot of places
out here that sell it man.
- That is a problem.
- Hmm, I was recently in south Georgia
with my son who was doing a diving thing.
And I was on a corner and I could see KFC,
Chick-Fil-A and Zaxby's.
- [Link] Ooh.
- All at the same time, I could have been
touching all three chicken places at the same time.
- They were that close?
- Maybe for plastic man.
- Now this one is not Cajun, that's pretty obvious.
This is just a classic fried chicken,
not as good as my nanny makes, but still very good.
- Roscoe's doesn't do Cajun, right?
Roscoe's is a--
- I gotta eat a waffle with Roscoe's
in order to really have confirmation.
- I always put it on the waffle
with the syrup and a hot sauce.
- It's so good, it's so good.
I'm going there right after this.
I don't care how much I eat
I still have room for Roscoe's.
Okay. - Hold on, hold on, hold on.
- I'm ready.
- Okay.
- [Drew] Okay, I need your answers
in three, two, one.
- Grocery store. - Church's.
- Ooh, I almost went to grocery store,
but then I changed it to Church's.
- You're probably right,
hey wouldn't have started with grocery store.
- That's what I was thinking.
- But maybe they did, maybe they did.
- But we're definitely on the same page,
but somebody got more points than the other.
- [Voiceover] Round two.
- Ah, bring it.
- Hold on, I just I love smelling it.
- I get a mouth feel for...
- [Rhett] I just love smelling it.
- How much?
- Oh, hmm, hmm.
That's gotta be nasty to watch.
Wow.
- Interesting.
- Hmm.
- The flavor profile of this is kind of flat,
totally different.
- I actually don't think it's totally different
than the last one.
- It's still fried chicken.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'd still have it to be the only thing
that I eat for the rest of my life if I had to.
But it's not as good as the first one.
And it feels like not as much care was put into this one,
I don't know what that says. - Mm-hmm, yep.
- But it just feels like somebody was like,
"Fry up the chicken again."
You know what I'm saying?
It's not their main thing,
so I feel like I know what I gotta guess.
- If I hadn't eaten it compared to the last one
I would've loved it, but I love it a little less.
- Hold on, hold on, I think I found some extra.
- Where?
- On the desk.
- Oh really?
- I feel like that could only be chicken,
it was chicken.
- Don't eat everything off the desk.
- Was it from you, how hard were you chewing?
If you were chewing hard enough
you could have shot it over.
- I think it did fly out of my mouth, yeah.
- Oh gosh.
- [Drew] All right, you guys ready?
- Yeah.
- All right, three, two, one.
- Grocery store. - Grocery store.
- Ooh, you said it twice,
you're already admitting defeat a little bit.
- Oh, Church's is the first one man,
you were right about that.
- Oh, you're with me, but you don't get the points.
- Because it was hard.
- It was crunchier.
- Yeah, it was crunchy.
- [Voiceover] Round three.
- All right, I'm gonna guess grocery store just regardless
just the whole game.
- The whole game, that's your strategy?
- Oh, oh.
That one's got different spices all up and down the edge.
Oh.
Mm, mm.
Oh. - Oh yeah.
- Mm-hmm.
- That is some good chicken.
- It's so juicy.
Oh and the...
The skin, the skin was different,
the skin was soft, but crispy at the same time.
- This one's not Cajun but it's very--
- [Drew] Spicy.
- Not spicy.
But it has spices.
- Spicy, not spicy.
- And herbs.
- Does it have 11?
- Maybe 11? - Are they secret?
- I think they're secret.
- Hold on, okay, before you guess KFC,
because I'm definitely thinking about guessing KFC,
because I was overwhelmed with the spice.
It's a little too spicy for KFC, don't you think?
- You know what?
I think it's too peppery.
I don't think there's 11 herbs and spices,
I think there's only three herbs and spices.
And it's mostly black pepper,
do you think that too?
- I don't know what I think.
- It's not KFC.
- We tasted two non-seasoned in a row,
and now we taste season,
maybe KFC's spicier than you ever realized.
- I think this is store bought,
I'm just putting it out there.
- Oh gosh.
- Dang it, I think you need to guess grocery store
one more time.
(Rhett laughing)
I'm serious.
- Hold up, does Popeye's try to imitate KFC?
Because it tasted like KFC at the beginning.
- Popeye's is Cajun.
- I know, but that's got spices,
I'm so confused, what are my choices?
- All right, I'm ready.
- Oh.
- [Drew] Okay, Rhett, you ready?
- [Rhett] No.
- [Drew] Too bad.
Three, two, one.
- Popeye's. - Roscoe's.
Roscoe's chicken and waffles.
- Do you think Roscoe's has got that much spice to it?
- Man, I can't remember without the waffle,
I mix it altogether when I'm there,
and I highly recommend it to all of you.
All of you, wherever you are.
I'll bet you're right there.
But that could easily be grocery store.
- Roscoe's went bankrupt man,
but I think they just reorganized.
- Well, just like 50 Cent, they're still around.
- Yeah, it doesn't really count.
- [Voiceover] Round four.
- Bring it in.
Here we go.
Oh, Ooh.
What is this?
This one's real.
- It's heat, this one's heat, man.
Man, you know what?
I want to get a comforter that is, mm, chicken skin.
Because when I just put my face up on this
I just love it, man.
I want to put my whole body on this.
- You want a chicken skin bed frame?
- I want a chicken skin bedspread,
we should make that.
- I'm remaining silent on this one,
'cause I don't want give you any help.
But I am experiencing, well, I'm not gonna say anything.
I'll let you say something.
All I know is I'm one happy man right now.
- This is Nirvana for me,
blindfolded with just new chicken legs just coming in.
And I just put my lips all over them,
put my face on them and then I eat them.
- Yep, all right, we're ready.
- Now the guessing part is the difficult part.
- [Drew] All right, here we go.
In three, two, one.
- Popeye's. - Bojangles.
No doubt.
This is from back home, bring it to me,
park it in there.
A lot of flavor y'all.
- It's definitely Cajun,
but you think it's specifically Bojangles?
- Absolutely dude (laughs).
- You go to Bojangles-- - It's in my veins.
- Every time you go back home with your in-laws.
- But it's like herpes,
it never leaves you once it's in there,
I'm talking about coldsores.
- You told me that your in-laws
go to the Bojangles parking lot to get on the internet.
- Yes, they do.
- [Voiceover] Round five.
- Bring it.
- I have all kinds of confidence in you.
- [Rhett] Oh.
Mm, oh.
- [Link] It's so good.
- You got to maintain pressure.
When I go in, who's holding out chicken stick?
- [Mike] It's me.
- Mike.
- It's me, it's me.
- When I go in and when I open my mouth
you gotta push it in.
- [Mike] Do you want another one?
- You gotta maintain pressure.
- Yeah, give me that one, let's try it.
Let's do it right this time.
Mm-hmm.
- Now this is so good, man.
- That's some good chicken.
- So good, so moist.
- That is some really good chicken, ha ha.
- It's tough.
- Something just hit me over the head.
- Was it a Cajun spice?
'Cause I'm not getting any of that.
- No, no sir, hold on, but just think.
It's got a slight, a little slight spice to it.
- It does.
- You feel it's simmering now,
you feel it simmering in there.
- This one is tough man.
- This could be Popeye's.
- It could be.
- [Drew] Need an answer.
- Okay.
- [Drew] Three, two, one.
- Church's. - Roscoe's.
- Roscoe's.
Should've said Church's on that one.
- I think that was Church's.
- Well, I forgot about Church's,
and there's one a few miles from my house
that I took my children to
to introduce them to fried chicken.
'Cause I realized they had never really had a good leg.
- That's a sad, sad statement.
- [Voiceover] Round six.
- Okay, bring it in.
Now Link, before you bite it,
get it up on your cheek, man.
Really think about this comforter idea.
- Oh, on my cheek?
- Yeah, all over your face.
And this is a bumpy one.
I think it just, what happened?
It crackled.
- [Crew Member] It's fallen off a little bit.
- Okay Mike, you ready?
Oh, I know, oh.
Oh.
- That's interesting.
What's going on here?
The thing we thought was KFC.
- Was KFC. - Was KFC.
- Because it even had the soft batter on the outside.
- This one was kind of boring to me.
It's really good,
but after tasting the other ones.
- You think this is boring?
- Let me have another bite of the boring.
- Can I have another bite?
- Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma.
- Oh.
Oh.
- A lot of crunchy on that.
- Yeah.
- I call it crunchy, what do you call that?
- Crispy skin.
- When I was a kid, I was like, "Nanny,
I want more crunchy on my chicken."
- That's definitely a restaurant,
do they do that at Popeye's?
Am I gonna guess Popeye's three times?
- I know I haven't guessed Popeye's or KFC,
I know this isn't KFC,
but I'm pretty sure this is not Popeye's.
- You were right about Bojangles.
- And the other one that was a hint of spice
I think was Popeye's.
- Them what is this?
- Does Church's have Cajun?
- No. - But they got spice.
- No, flat line.
Flat line fried.
- I don't know, man.
I just want to eat it, that's what I want to do,
I don't want to guess what it is.
- This could be store bought.
- I want to eat it with my eyes.
- [Drew] Okay, you guys ready?
In three, two, one.
- Grocery store. - Church's.
I went Church's man.
- Man.
- I hope I was right.
- Okay, now we're moving onto the Franken round,
but first where do we stand?
- [Drew] Okay, Rhett, you have...
Zero.
(Link laughing)
- [Rhett] I'm a chicken loser.
- You're a chicken loser. - I'm a chicken loser man.
- [Drew] And Link, you've got two right.
- Oh. - Only two?
- Ah, you were right about Bojangles,
I don't know which other one you were right.
Hold on, okay, and now the Franken round is two chickens.
- Man, anybody's game. - So I could tie.
But chances are I won't since I got none so far.
- [Voiceover] Fried frankenchick.
(ominous music)
- All right, bring it in.
Now I'm told that these are chicken balls
where they've mushed two
different chicken leg meats together.
Back off buddy. - I'm just smelling it.
That sunscreen was a good idea,
the more I smell it the more I want it in my bed.
- Mm-hmm.
- The more I want it just all over me man,
I totally understand this.
- This is tough, one of these is spicy.
I guess I'm just going to eat it.
(woman laughing)
- Now, I gotta divide it in my mouth.
- I'm trying to isolate one.
- Mm-hmm, I got the first one.
- I got that part of the chicken leg
that you're not supposed to eat,
you're supposed to spit it out.
But I ain't gonna do that.
- I feel pretty strongly about one,
It's congealed into one new thing.
I did a technique,
I wasn't gonna tell you about it.
'Cause I have such an underdog move coming into this,
but I left cheeked all the chicken
and then I brought the chicken
across my tongue into my right cheek.
And I could feel like a chicken gradient
happening in my mouth.
I made a chicken gradient in my mouth,
and I'm happy about it.
- Congratulations, you're a man now.
- Oh, were you giving me five?
The way you said that I was just like,
"He's definitely going in for the five."
Let's do it again.
Say, "Congratulations, I'm a man."
I wanna know I'm a man.
- Congratulations, you're a man now.
(crew laughing)
- [Drew] Okay, are you guys ready?
- [Rhett] Man. - Okay.
- [Rhett] Okay.
- [Drew] Okay, in three, two, one.
- KFC and Roscoe's. - KFC, Bojangles.
Oh, we both said KFC.
KFC and Bojangles.
- I took my blindfold off.
- All right, what is it Drew?
- The Frankenchicken was Church's and grocery store.
- Yeah, just like we said
- Man, those two obscure things?
- KFC and Roscoe's.
- So I still win.
- Link, you're now crowned the chicken king.
- Sing a song to me.
♪ He is the chicken king ♪
- Just be like the guy on "Star Trek",
that's what you ought to be like.
♪ He's like Levar Burton ♪

- What's on it? - This is the best song
I've ever come up with.
- Chicken legs?
- No, it's supposed to be like this.
(crew chuckling)
Actually you're supposed to have it right at your mouth,
so you can be tasting chicken at all times.
- [Link] Oh, I look like Bane.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [Link] Oh hello, hello there.
