Crock Pot Buttermilk Chicken

Crock Pot Buttermilk Chicken at Miz Helen's Country Cottage

I remember eating a smothered buttermilk chicken at my Grandmothers when I was a young girl,it was so tender you could cut it with a fork, and the flavor was amazing. I was to young to think to write the recipe down, but I do recall her mixing some vegetables together with fresh buttermilk and pouring it over the chicken. It would be in the oven of a wood burning stove for hours, then finally she would take it from the oven and bring it to the table, it was delicious! This is an attempt to make my Grandmothers recipe that none of the family recorded, and to all my daughters and Granddaughters now we have one right here.

  7. Hello, wondering why you say to leave the chicken pieces skin on and coating them with flour when the skin and flour will result in chicken with soft/mushy skin having no crispiness at all due to being simmered for hours in a crockpot. Recipe itself would certainly be perfect for coating for home fried chicken, but having made multiple assorted chicken casseroles in oven or crockpot ( with skin removed ) for over 60 years, the instructions for this recipe are a bit baffling, hence my question.
    Thank you and a Happy 2020 to you and yours

    1. Hi Joycelyn,
      I appreciate your question as to why I leave the skin on the chicken and flour the chicken. The reason the recipe calls for that method is because it is not fried chicken but a smothered chicken and as you can see in the photo in is slow cooked in a buttermilk gravy and you are right it is soft and mushy so much so it can be cut with a fork. I do have another recipe on my blog that is https://www.mizhelenscountrycottage.com/2016/05/old-black-pot-buttermilk-chicken.html
      The Old Black Pot Buttermilk Chicken is fried chicken and just delicious, however this recipe is more like a smothered chicken. Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy the recipe!
