not sure this would make the top 10, but as this is FlyerTalk:

Having a Bojangles right in the midst of the gates at CLT impressed these British tastebuds

My aunt's fried chicken. Well you asked!

For restaurants, Bobby's and Your Mama's Good Food in Little Rock, Arkansas. Mama's serves fried chicken on Wednesdays. I can't remember what day Bobby's serves it but I think it's Fridays.

I'm going to vote for the hot foods counter at any Publix grocery store. Every single Publix somehow is able to turn out amazing fried chicken.

Popeyes is underrated. Just have to get it hot out of the fryer. With the Popeyes hot sauce!

I'm a fan of the Korean fried chicken places in NYC as well.

Paula Dean's Lady and Sons in Savannah, GA had hands down the best fried chicken I've ever had.

Okarche chicken in Okarche, Oklahoma. It's actually called Eischen's bar but everyone refers to it as Okarche chicken. It's about 35 minutes outside of Oklahoma City and worth the drive. They take cash only so forget about using a credit card. They only have 4 things on the menu, fried chicken, fried okra, nachos and a roast beef sandwich. Don't even bother with the roast beef or nachos, get the fried chicken and okra. They are served in paper trays with no utensils. You get a whole chicken (cut up) fried and enough okra for three or 4 people. They have a sign on the inside of the door that says we are a bar, we don't have coffee, tea or tap water so don't ask. They have beer and canned sodas and that's it to drink. The menu is basic, the chicken is great and there are pool tables in the back. It's the oldest bar in Oklahoma and a cool joint to hang out in.

I've been there! Another place in Oklahoma City is Bobo's chicken. I would not advise trying to find it on your own. Mr. Bobo operates out of the back of a trailer. He has been shut down on at least one occasion for not paying his taxes. That said, I find it quite tasty, and it comes with biscuits and honey.

I do love my fried chicken. Must be my southern upbringing!

I have to say that I actually enjoy the Sunday chicken at Cracker Barrell. For whatever reason, they only do it on Sundays and a limited amount.

Fast food wise, my votes go to Popeyes and Bojangles.

The Lady and Sons was ok, but the buffet itself was a bit underwhelming IMO. For the best Fried Chicken in Savannah, try Ms. Wilkersons(probably spelled that wrong)

+1 to Publix.
