From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Golden Skillet is a popular fast food chain that specializes in fried chicken. The chain was established in 1962 in Richmond, Virginia, and has since expanded to various locations across the United States and internationally.

History[edit | edit source]

The Golden Skillet was founded by James Maynard and William F. Carl, who wanted to create a fast food chain that offered high-quality fried chicken. The first location was opened in Richmond, Virginia, and the chain quickly gained popularity due to its unique cooking method and flavorful chicken.

Menu[edit | edit source]

Golden Skillet's menu primarily consists of fried chicken, which is prepared using a proprietary cooking method. The chicken is marinated and then fried to a golden brown, resulting in a crispy exterior and juicy interior. In addition to chicken, the menu also includes side dishes such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and biscuits.

Expansion[edit | edit source]

Golden Skillet has expanded significantly since its inception. The chain now has locations in several states across the U.S., as well as in other countries such as Canada and the Philippines. Despite this expansion, the chain has remained committed to its original cooking method and recipe.

Reception[edit | edit source]

Golden Skillet has received positive reviews for its fried chicken. Customers often praise the chicken's flavor and the chain's fast service. However, like many fast food chains, Golden Skillet has also faced criticism for its high-calorie menu items.
