    What place in Houston do you guys think has the best chicken strips? I used to think it was Wing Stop (they call them boneless wings) but I bought the ones at Toyota Center, and DAMN! those are good. Theres a place on Westheimer, i forgot the name, that sells only chicken strips or something, the chicken is juicy, but not very tasty.

    I always felt that chicken strips would taste great if they had the same seasoning that curly fries have.

    ... or cajun seasoning.

    Wing Stop wings are nasty - scrawny with no meat. Never tried their chicken strips since I don't really eat those. I went to a local Wing Stop in the Dallas area wearing my Rockets cap and shirt ... as soon as I entered the register-ringing-rugrat tells me I'd have to leave because "this is a Mavs zone". After tearing into each other, I told him to take my order and we could argue after that. lol.

    After much thinking, I refuse to eat at Wing Stop after that and besides... Troy Aikman is a sponsor (part owner?) of the franchise. BARF.

    The best fried chicken I've had is Popeye's - they have strips. Their regular fried chicken can be ordered spicy or mild, but I'm not sure about their strips... I haven't had Frenchy's in forever, but I thought that used to be good - but then I was a kid and garbage probably tasted good to me back then. :D

    Nah, I'm not. I know it's popular to hate it, but I like it. I don't eat fried chicken much anymore - maybe once every 4 or 5 months, but I love spicy foods and I think they're better than the other chains.

    That really isn't saying much considering all the others (KFC, Churches.. am I missing one?) really suck.

    Best chicken strips are homemade. The worst ones are from Sonic.

    Never had the ones from Sonic, the worst ones I've had are from Hooters. Its basically just fried batter in the shape of chicken strips.

    The problem with Sonics are similar. They're small and most of the strip is just fried batter.

    Yeah, but that's like all the BBQ, burger, etc. people saying theirs is the best. Well, when you start a store up, let me know - otherwise, your food is pretty worthless to me. Unless of course the next time you make fried chicken, you want some strangers to show up at your door saying "PROVE IT'S BETTER!!!" :D

    Caines is really good, but the chicken strips along with the fries have enough salt to kill a person...
