So they're getting their standard order: lemonade, tendies, waffle fries, BBQ sauce for him, Chick-Fil-A (the best) sauce for her, and have requested a vegetable to, I don't know, make them feel better about eating tendies. So, what I need from you fu/ck/ing majestic creatures: some shit for blogposting, if you've done this before, what you did that worked, what you did that didn't work, some tips on making Chick-Fil-A sauce, and what the hell kind of vegetable you'd pair with this.

be sure to fry it in 100% peanut oil like chic fil a does
Top with a little pat of butter and pickle slices of course. I'm sure the roll is pretty important too. I've only eaten at chic-fil-a a few times though so I can't remember exactly what the rolls are like.
why not actually get chick-fil-a
play it off as a joke if they get mad
How are you planning to make the chic fil a sauce? Its like a combo of honey mustard and bbq sauce, right?
>>8482990
>tendies
>>8482995
I would, but the closest Chick-Fil-A is on another university's campus, so it's a SHIT one that doesn't even serve tendies.

It's the world's sexiest mayonnaise with, yeah, BBQ, mustard, and HFCS. I was going to make mayo, add in BBQ sauce, mustard, and extra sugar if necessary.
>>8483109
use honey instead of extra sugar
>>8483109
Its a mix of the BBQ and Polynesian sauce, actually.
>>8483332
Your taste buds must be retarded if you think this.
>>8484064
best way I can think to describe it is "sweet and sour ketchup."
Chic-fil-a sauce,meanwhile, tastes like honey mustard mixed with some bbq and mayo.
>work at CFA
>can receive infinite Chick-Fil-A sauce
I'm living it up, guys. And getting paid shit.
the chicken isn't too hard, it's a combination of two standard breading techniques, dredging and battering: dredge, eggwash, dredge again, but the flour mix needs baking soda like you are making tempura batter, also a touch of sugar and lots of black pepper, and some paprikash for color. two breast ought to get you 5-6 patties, they are cut to resemble small chicken breasts with a thick and thn end, and they can just be brined, pickle juice not necessary
the buns are super sweet, not Hawaiian King but maybe potato roll or those cheap shitty generic hamburg rolls, don't make them, buy those in.
waffle fries, hell if I know, you're on your own son
>>8484139
Making fries at home is a crap shoot because of starch degradation. No one wants mushy, brown fries. I'm using frozen waffle fries.

Chick Fil A sauce break downs, how to make poly and fila sauce
As for the chicken itself, it's brined in pickle juice, as has been mentioned, lightly breaded, and fried in peanut oil.
Now, they probably expect you to ELEVATE this shit a bit since you are a private chef. So feel free to church it up.
>>8484229

Chick Fil A analysis

annndd chicken break down http://www.hellthyjunkfood.com/chick-fil-a.html
Not sure why they removed the video
as for veggies, as has been mentioned, you could make coleslaw, or possibly a small side salad
https://www.chick-fil-a.com/Menu-Items/Side-Salad
or a cup of fruit
https://www.chick-fil-a.com/Menu-Items/Fruit-Cup
straight from their menu
In fact i'd recommend fruit and milkshakes for desert, if you think you can pull that off
After chick fil a's whole "gas the homosexuals" thing, the SJWs set out to replicate the menu and brag about it via social media, so the recipes are pretty well documented.
>>8484418
Anon pls
They never said gas the homo
Just electroshock and beat the homo till they stop being gay
>>8485212
They also support orphanages in Uganda that practice genital mutilation
Also op you're gonna wanna brine the chicken in pickle juice
>>8484029
It literally is, I worked at CFA in High School.
>>8485378
I heard they also said Anne Frank deserved it.
OP make sure to butter up the buns and use crispy dill pickles
Hey OP, mind if i ask u some questions? Starting up my own catering gig too.
>>8482901
wait a minute, I need to derail this for a sec cuz I have never encountered this before. Am I to understand you making a meal for a couple once a week? Each night of the week? Every meal of the week?
Honestly as a client/service relationship it seems weird and fascinating to me.
When I was 17-18
>summer time arrived
>friend stated his grandparents needed help at a lodge
>got dragged along
>became the main short order cook for the lodge
>every Friday night was chicken and shrimp
>every Saturday was steak and lobster
>always are at least one giant juicy chicken breast or steak each night
>got paid with a tad of cash but mostly we got to raid the bar afterward
Free food, free drink, only worked about 6 hours each of those 2 nights. Shit was fun.
>>8485538
I know a manager who once ran over a black man.
Don't forget to apply sugar liberally to the lemonade. A good lemonade should be sweet, as it is not a limeade.
>>8486547
Their polynesian sauce used to be made from the actual oil squeegeed off polynesian slaves
OP, the waffle fries have very little done to them beyond cutting, frying and salting.
>>8486510
You've never heard of a personal chef?
A nice warm roasted carrot op
>>8482901
OP, how did it turn out? Don't leave us hanging
>be me
Stopped reading there
>>8482901
just buy actual chic fil a and give it to them. they will be impressed how talented you are and will continue to pay you well
>>8487881
Honestly though, are they paying OP extra money to make his best imitation of cheap fast food?
