Popeyes and Chick-fil-a are not a good comparison. Chick-fil-a; albiet fast food technically is far superior to anything else with a drive thru window out there. I don't like fast food much myself, but Chick-fil-a is quality food - nothing like a Sonic, BK, McDs, KFC, Church's, Popeyes, Taco Bell, Zaxby's, Raisin' Cane's, etc, etc ad nauseam.
When I was a kid (70s/80s) they could only be found in shopping malls, since about the mid-90s they have been doing the free standing buildings - they have really blown up in SC in the past 10 years.
Do yourself a 'flavor' and if you happen to see one on an exit sign when you are on the road, stop by and check out their original sammich - you will not be disappointed, I promise.
I don't travel much! [insert snobby comment here like: ...and when I do I don't eat fast food] lol. I enjoy me some fast food. If i get a chance I will try some Chick Fil A. I will report back. I've had Popeye's and was WAY less than impressed.
Yep in Hotlanta - one of my least favorite places to have to drive through. Once you get just about 10 miles outside of Atlanta, then you're back in Georgia again. 😄
I will give your recipe a go as well, but you are right - we are talking 2 totally differnt animals here. Besides MH already threw down the gauntlet on his SC Mustard sauce, so I'll be half way there anyway. 😄
For those of you not familiar with Chick-fil-a or Chick-fil-a Sauce (Huskee, I'm looking at you), and for those that are and can't get enough of the little packs of goodness, here is a good copycat recipe:
1/2 cup mayonaise
4 teaspoons yellow mustard
2 teaspoons lemon juice
4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons KC Style BBQ sauce
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.
Chick-fil-a Sauce is one of the most magical sauces on the planet - kinda tastes like a overly sweet honey mustard initially, then the follow-up flavor of BBQ sets in. MMMMMMMM!
Good on chicken (obviously) as well as burgers, ham steaks, fries or as a general sandwich spread for cold cuts (or leftover turkey sammiches).
Now that I have found a good recipe I don't have to embarrasingly ask the kid at the Chick-fil-a drive thru for 5+ packs per sandwich so that I can keep up my hoard at home. I'll be bottling my own from now on.
Enjoy!
