Houstonist has a soft spot (right around our midesction) for fried crap. Fried pickles, fried chicken, chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken, even fried Oreos. We'll scarf 'em. So of course we've got to love a blog "devoted to exploring all that is good, breaded and fattening about chicken fried foods in Texas". Just look at the mouth-watering gravy on that header!
Some usual suspects are here: The Cracker Barrel and fried fast food maven Grandy's, but the blog mostly features locally-owned chains. It also includes home-tested chicken-fry recipes. Each post rates the meal based not just on the meat, its breading and gravy, but also on the knife, available sides, the price, and service.
