Great. Now I have to go to Sam's Club.
That griddle in the video looked really nice, so I looked it up. Holy chicken sandwich Batman, $4,000.
On a sidenote, youtube closed captioning had a Sean Connery on Jeopardy moment when the the guy talks about the fried chicken's "Chris penis".

Would rather have it on a biscuit than a sammich. But that's just me...

Sam the Cooking Guy is solid.
Josh is more technique oriented but, just as good, I'm not crazy about using the biscuit but, use whatever bread type you like. The spice portion of the marinade I used jalapeño powder and for the dredge, I used Trader Joe's Umami Powder in place of the mushroom powder he uses...same thing it goes with everything.

Hell, now I'm going to have to hit Chick-Fil-A for lunch.

The Chick-Fil-A recipe also needs to include dipping the bun in dishwater before serving. It gives it the always present gooey wet texture they seem to excel in. I've only had 3 of them and I swore never again. My wife won't go back because of the scene I'm going to cause when they hand me the tray and without leaving the counter, I'm going to open my sandwich and point it out to the manager.
Even McDonalds can do a better job, as can Wendy's and a few others.

This might help you get started on your version of the recipe.
Be careful what you tolerate. You are teaching people how to treat you.

Sam the Cooking guy definitely got it right with the brine. They DO use pickle juice to brine their chicken. That much, I know. Whether they use buttermilk, I know not.

If you want spicy chicken for a sandwich...check out Sam’s recipe... I have used this and with boneless skinless thighs and it is delicious ...I think the thigh is the best part of the chicken...

No. Just no. I bought a package of the sandwiches figuring there's times during the week we don't have a lot of time to get my oldest son to practice and it'd be a nice change from a PBJ or a Lunchable.
I've had 4 trying to figure out the right microwave setting and have come to the conclusion that there is no setting that's going to make these anything better. They are edible and they haven't made me sick, but they are in no way a substitute for the real deal. If all I had left were these and dog food, I might hope the dog liked chicken sandwiches.

My wife brought some of these nuggets home and cooked them in the oven. IMO, they do not in any way, shape or form approximate the CFA product. The nuggets tasted like they dipped frozen nuggets in pickle juice, and it wasn't my thing. YMMV

CFA may dip the buns in water (I don't know), but I would bet that it is NOT dishwater. Your dislike of their sandwiches is noted, but your attempt at humor is poor. IMO, CFA is one of the best things to happen to "fast food" in a long time--good food, excellent service, clean facilities.
