This Cozy Indiana Restaurant Is Now Nationally Renowned For Its Crispy Southern Fried Chicken

The fried chicken here sizzles in 14-inch cast-iron skillets filled with hog fat. That stubborn, old-school method helped earn a James Beard Foundation honor in 2023. I love that a tiny Indiana dining room won national praise with flour, salt, and a bold hit of black pepper. No trendy sauces.
