@@EeveeRealSenpai No seriously, look up the amount of cholesterol in these things. Eating a full meal of deep fried chicken with sauce on top alone every week seriously jeopardizes blood cholesterol level long term. The fact that most Americans think this amount every week is healthy is itself the problem. People have such low standards they don't even know the healthy amount anymore. This kind of food is technically very toxic, in cardiovascular terms.

Ephesians 6:10-18 says, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.
First thing I noticed is how clean that kitchen was. Being a chef/cook (depending on where I'm at) for the last 11 years on and off has made me stop eating out. You NEVER know who's cooking your food or just how nasty the kitchen is. That joint looks legit. Good stuff 🤙🏻

That man has a true love and respect for what he does… that kitchen is probably one of the cleanest I’ve seen. I’m not surprised though, because I know a girl with 11 siblings and she grew up to be obsessively clean too, the clutter and chaos of so many siblings drove her to seek order and cleanliness in everything she does and I can see that same energy with this chef.

Chicken and food on bang
I'm from 133rd & Amsterdam! He always looked out for me with a lil something extra. An extra scoop of this or an extra wing or something. He always threw me something extra when I came in to spend that block money every day. But yo, who remember Shermans for the ribs and spaghetti located between145th 146th & I think 8th or 7th? (I'm showing my age!)
Trust me, the chicken’s really good. My father lives in NC and he says it tastes just like the fried chicken that the church ladies make at his church. 🥰 ETA: Sorry for the misunderstanding, my father lives in NC and when he was visiting NYC, that’s how he tasted this fried chicken!! 😅
I do very much appreciate his very spiffy and very clean chef’s uniform and the kitchen is so very clean there as well! I would love to try some chicken there with no hesitation!
My husband took me to NY for a my birthday for 10 days last year among many things we experienced together, we also rode the subway from Queens to Harlem and Charles' Pan Fried Chicken is really that good! 😋 God bless him ❤🍗
I’m religious, but I always find it cringey when other people use God in ways like that. Lmao like what is “God’s blessing” supposed to do here? Just spawn customers in his restaurant? Put extra salt in the batter? 😂 This stuff always comes off as a “pick me” girl, but in religious terms.
That’s a dope story. Cooking for the fam so young I bet his passion hasn’t faltered once. And to call a chickens seasoning “a triple threat” is so hard lmao.
Okay now I can honestly testify to this. I LOVE fried chicken and I've tried it in more towns and restaurants than I can possibly count after 50+ years of eating it. Charles Pan Fried IS the best fried chicken I've ever had and I've had it at least a dozen times (worked in NYC for 15 years). Even beats my grandmother's and she was 'locally famous' for her chicken as she brought it to every picnic, town cookout, church dinner, etc.
I'm somewhat conflicted by this comment lol. To say it's better than your grandmothers almost feels like a sin of some sort. However, the fact that you said it makes me respect you IMMENSELY. No one just says that for the fuck of it, so I believe you mean it.
@@SoosRamirez1 Especially when Grandma uses all fresh ingredients from the family farm including the chicken, eggs, and milk! Now I'll put Grandma's Chicken and Dumplings up against anyone in the world, but I have to admit Charles Pan Fried is the best chicken I've ever had.
@@Words-of-encouragement.-. Believe me it wasn't easy to say. It almost hurts to say but I actually said that the very first time I had it years ago. Repeated visits just solidified the claim. Now I'm willing to bet a year's salary ain't a person on Earth can make homemade Chicken and Dumplings that will beat Grandma's but I'll give Charles the fried chicken.
God bless him. But he didn't take care of 19 siblings at age 7. He's been cooking the chicken since 7. No one has 18 kids under 7, and no 7 yo is handling that.

I got to get up to Harlem so I can get to CHARLES PAN FRIED CHICKEN, coming from Cleveland I haven't been to New York since 1984- I'll probably catch a Plane ride up there on my way to Europe.
Omg, I need to fly to NY to get me some fried chicken and bbq ribs NOW!! No thing else will suffice. Thanks for making me have an impossible to satisfy craving as I'm probably not ever going to go there ☹️
I 100% believe it’s the best because anybody who’s a true cook knows you season every single part of the dish. A good soak in seasoned buttermilk is how I was taught. Good on him for those cast iron skillets, too. IYKYK I’m using my great grandmother’s cast iron.
Hell no!!! Not anymore, he must be retired because the quality has definitely dropped. They cater to the gentrified neighborhood, so the chicken is now flavorless.
As soon as I saw Chef Charles, I was already like he know what he talking about. When grandma teach valuable life lessons, Listen and Learn. GOD bless y'all

Y’all there are people in this world who find happiness in the simple things even if we can’t always understand it to them it’s not just simple. It’s love and culture 💜
Happily helping people damage their health for money.
That chicken looks incredible.
Sounds it too
Looking and tasting are two different things. They're good/mediocre but not the best. They have been there since the 90's...
@@boogieb_7179 Very true, I've had many meals where the food looks great but tastes mid.
That is one happy man right there. I hope I can leave my kids something that blesses them that much one day. It’s a beautiful thing to see.
Amen!!!! That is EXACTLY what I thought!
Most kids today don't want to take over the family business it's too much work
@@jackmeoff9299 you’ve got to work somewhere. Also, I don’t think this statement is true.
@@jackmeoff9299 your username is disgusting my guy.
@@Avaddon911 I actually know many family restaurants where the owner is getting ready to retire and are looking for someone to purchase them because no one in the family wants to run them
I love this man. Dedicated to family . Grandma taught the right person.
I remember when he first opened uptown near polo grounds!!! One of coolest demeanors I've ever met and an even cooler person to know and talk to as well and if you didn't have enough money for the food he would give it to you anyway a man who genuinely loves people and providing quality soul food for people and the community!!!God bless Charlie... Chicken and food on bang
Yo.....i took my mom to that original one by polo grounds......may she RIP that was a beautiful day we shared together
@slumking112 My sympathies to you 😔
It's good to know that you have good memories of her ❤️
May she Rest In Heavenly Peace 🙏🏼
🕊💗🕊
I'm from 133rd & Amsterdam! He always looked out for me with a lil something extra. An extra scoop of this or an extra wing or something. He always threw me something extra when I came in to spend that block money every day. But yo, who remember Shermans for the ribs and spaghetti located between145th 146th & I think 8th or 7th? (I'm showing my age!)
We need more people like this chef!
🤗🤗👏👏🙏🙏
@@BlackOcelot0095 show it. Some people did not live today to show their age.
That crunch almost burst my eardrums! I know it’s good😋
The crunch was otherworldly
Lol
totally not an edit
I enjoyed your comments and shining a light on this wonderful man’s life work ❤
Wowww!!!❤Looks so good!!! Fire 🔥 💯😎
Trust me, the chicken’s really good. My father lives in NC and he says it tastes just like the fried chicken that the church ladies make at his church. 🥰
ETA: Sorry for the misunderstanding, my father lives in NC and when he was visiting NYC, that’s how he tasted this fried chicken!! 😅
NC? They said he is in NYC
@@OG-BIG-SHEPHERD.father is from NC. He’s comparing the NY chefs chicken to the NC church ladies chicken.
If I’m not mistaken, the owner/chef is from North Carolina. I saw another video in which he was featured.
@@jessicam.4777 makes sense. He is probably originally from NC but operates out of NY
Chef Charles is a freaking Jedi Knight the way he wheels that giant pan like a Lightsabar! Awesome! 😊
I was thinking the same.....especially if they are actually made of cast iron.
I do very much appreciate his very spiffy and very clean chef’s uniform and the kitchen is so very clean there as well! I would love to try some chicken there with no hesitation!
Is it just me, or does he kinda look like a chubby Denzel Washington?
My husband took me to NY for a my birthday for 10 days last year among many things we experienced together, we also rode the subway from Queens to Harlem and Charles' Pan Fried Chicken is really that good! 😋 God bless him ❤🍗
OMG❤❤
I came to the comments to see if anyone tried the chicken thank you for the information.
I bet that trip was amazing, and one you'll remember for all time. NYC is such a treat❤
Thank Chef Charles for carrying the heritage and tradition of soul food forward. Salute!!!
Chef Hoyt Williams
He takes pride in feeding Americans just like the kids he grew up with. God s blessings to his business
I’m religious, but I always find it cringey when other people use God in ways like that. Lmao like what is “God’s blessing” supposed to do here? Just spawn customers in his restaurant? Put extra salt in the batter? 😂
This stuff always comes off as a “pick me” girl, but in religious terms.
Wtf are you talking about, bro wrote a whole essay and said nothing
@@bigmo8588no the person made pefect sense you just need a fake imaginary person to make you feel whole 😂
@@bigmo8588 two sentences back to back dont make an essay. good luck out there
@@airanator1212 Well since you're religious, whatever God's blessing is in your opinion. Apply that.
God bless you brother.
That’s a dope story. Cooking for the fam so young I bet his passion hasn’t faltered once. And to call a chickens seasoning “a triple threat” is so hard lmao.
Chicken looks delicious 😋 I'm coming to taste this chicken. Chef Charles!!❤
Okay now I can honestly testify to this. I LOVE fried chicken and I've tried it in more towns and restaurants than I can possibly count after 50+ years of eating it. Charles Pan Fried IS the best fried chicken I've ever had and I've had it at least a dozen times (worked in NYC for 15 years). Even beats my grandmother's and she was 'locally famous' for her chicken as she brought it to every picnic, town cookout, church dinner, etc.
I'm somewhat conflicted by this comment lol. To say it's better than your grandmothers almost feels like a sin of some sort. However, the fact that you said it makes me respect you IMMENSELY. No one just says that for the fuck of it, so I believe you mean it.
You know it’s good when the people say it’s better than their grandmothers recipe
@@SoosRamirez1 Especially when Grandma uses all fresh ingredients from the family farm including the chicken, eggs, and milk! Now I'll put Grandma's Chicken and Dumplings up against anyone in the world, but I have to admit Charles Pan Fried is the best chicken I've ever had.
@@Words-of-encouragement.-. Believe me it wasn't easy to say. It almost hurts to say but I actually said that the very first time I had it years ago. Repeated visits just solidified the claim. Now I'm willing to bet a year's salary ain't a person on Earth can make homemade Chicken and Dumplings that will beat Grandma's but I'll give Charles the fried chicken.
So where is it 🤔😛!!!
What a good man chef Charles is. He took care of his 19 siblings at age seven and mad food for them and honours his grandmother's recipe.
God bless him. But he didn't take care of 19 siblings at age 7. He's been cooking the chicken since 7. No one has 18 kids under 7, and no 7 yo is handling that.
They didn’t say he was cookin for his siblings at 7
@@manuelmorse3338 right, only that he started cooking that recipe
Sound like a tru.p support here what u wanna here and get if all f up

Thanks 🙏👍🙏 GOD-BLESS-Us-ALL Throughout THIS Delicious FOOD Once I Get My Special Delivery From You'll 🤓✨😋
Any place with “grandma’s recipe” is usually a bop, can’t lie 🤷😮💨
Love content creators like this. They aren’t making it about themselves when they go out bro knows how to make you want to try the food. Seems genuine from this 15 second clip. First time seeing this TH-camr. Bro is giving credit where it’s due.
Ikr? They're both profiting off it, as it should be
Why he dont give the name or location though
@@tekh07 he did in the title
@@tekh07 idk how many restaurants Charles has but he did put nyc and his restaurant name. But no clue why he doesn’t say it.
Great grandma always said," If you flip the chicken more than once in the pan, you ain't frying it right." 😉
I got to get up to Harlem so I can get to CHARLES PAN FRIED CHICKEN, coming from Cleveland I haven't been to New York since 1984- I'll probably catch a Plane ride up there on my way to Europe.
How am i supposed to stick to my diet watching such delights! ❤
😂😂😂 lead us not into temptations
@@LuckyJudaz right, lol 😆
Why you watching it tho
Love a country cook. I bet it is the best fried chicken ever. He loves cooking it!
But this is in new york city, not very country
Charles’ face and smile exude his kindness. Keep rocking the chicken, Charles!
How can anyone have 19 siblings? His mum had 20 kids. Like what the actual fock????
That crunch from the chicken is calling me. I plan to answer!!❤
Right!? 😂
The crunch
Says it all, there is a lot of LOVE in there, the rest is just mastery. PURE PASSION AND LOVE…❤❤❤❤❤
The crunch does not say it all 💀
It can be crunchy and still taste like shit 😂
19 Siblings! This man won, not just the chicken recipe, He won everything 🎉🎉🎉
"I've been making the same recipe since I was 7 years old."
Reminds me of:
"I know everything there is to know about the shrimping business.
That crunch is serious 🥰
God, just the crunch sends me salivating
I could make an old shoe crunchy. It still gonna taste like an old shoe though.
Looks great Chef Charles.. what WOWED me was 19 siblings!!!!
If it's New York Harlem EVERYTHING FOR NOTTI AND EDOT
I need a flight from Chicago to Ny ASAP!!! 😋
i was fckin deported in one of those.
motherfuck uncle sam
Absolutely looking 👀 delicious right now!!! He’s a Legend in Harlem!!❤
Is that bwt 149 and 151 first Street
Jesus! Thank you!!!@@cherylallen6122
The crunchy sound tells you that chicken is super scrumptious
Sorry, If it’s deep fried, it ain’t the best. The best is gone years ago….. Iron Skillet Fried in Crisco.
Key ingredients is love. Look how proud he looks cooking and telling you how long he’s been at it
The Man cooks from the Heart !!
I totally can Respect that. 👍🏻👍🏻💙
Fr also you don’t need sauce if the chicken is that good lol
@@jaycobherr8996
Exactly. 👍🏻😎
Chef looks so wholesome 🥺❤️
He seems like a sweet man. ❤😊
@@Wndrlnd9FR
That looks so good 👍 😍 😋 😩 😫 👍 😍
That chicken is gorgeous
Denzel Washington!! 😁 His smile is money!
I had to go back and look at his face and yes! You're right lol, they could be brothers.
“What a beautiful chocolate man” 😂😂
@@DeusEx.Machina😂😂😂
Grandma was a culinary genius
I actually came here to hate...but I cant. That chicken looks and sounds amzing and those ribs look super flavorful😮
That’s from his spirit, you can tell he got a lot of skills in the kitchen
Well well well.
If Denzel Washington became a chef rather than the equalizer this would've been him 😂
😂
Maybe Denzel is one of his 19 siblings 😂
Lmao I was thinking the same 😂
Finally I found my comment 😂
That chicken looks so good 👍 😋 😮my stomach is hungry 😍
I suddenly have the urge for chicken... and I currently have some in the fridge lol
Seeing the pans, yea this guy knows how to fry chicken, and i definitely wish o could try it
His big ass smile while he was holding it up😂 screw the recipe, that pan is his pride and joy
Looks amazing and he does it with a smile on his face, couldn’t ask for more. Food made with love!!
Growing up in Louisiana, that's a bold statement, looks very delicious, I would love to try everything on his menu👍🏽👍🏽💯💯💯
Omg, I need to fly to NY to get me some fried chicken and bbq ribs NOW!! No thing else will suffice. Thanks for making me have an impossible to satisfy craving as I'm probably not ever going to go there ☹️
His hardship (cooking for his 19 siblings) became a blessing for him later 💯 😁
You gotta love all the family photos in there. It’s obvious how much he loves what he does and honoring his grandma/ family.
I 100% believe it’s the best because anybody who’s a true cook knows you season every single part of the dish. A good soak in seasoned buttermilk is how I was taught. Good on him for those cast iron skillets, too. IYKYK I’m using my great grandmother’s cast iron.
Hell no!!! Not anymore, he must be retired because the quality has definitely dropped. They cater to the gentrified neighborhood, so the chicken is now flavorless.
Chef Charles has such a welcoming smile! And that chicken looks phenomenal.
That chicken will send you to another dimension
Yep, disease and death
@@bryant475that’s if you eat like that on a regular basis . Every now and then won’t hurt.
@@bryant475No,.its great on moderation..enjoy your life a bit ya fanook
Chicken might send you to a dimension you won’t return from, but I think I’d have no regrets. 😅
As soon as I saw Chef Charles, I was already like he know what he talking about. When grandma teach valuable life lessons, Listen and Learn. GOD bless y'all
I own a restaurant and we serve my great great grandma's chicken and noodles which I started making and serving since I was 9 months old to my 81 siblings.
Man I want that!!!
I live too far away 😞
