Tyler Campbell

I'm Tyler Campbell, and I've been perfecting my fried chicken game since my Aunt Linda taught me her secret buttermilk soak in her cramped Mobile, Alabama kitchen back in 2010. The smell of peanut oil and cayenne still transports me to her yellow-tiled kitchen where we'd spend Sunday afternoons listening to old blues records while she told stories about my great-grandma Essie, who ran a tiny soul food joint during the Depression. These past 14 years, I've burned through three cast-iron skillets and served rubbery chicken to more friends than I can count before finally nailing that perfect crust-to-juice ratio the night my daughter Emma was born in 2019. Now I live in Charlotte, North Carolina with my wife Sarah, our five-year-old Emma who insists on 'helping' by eating all the flour, and our lazy tabby cat Pickles who supervises from the windowsill. When I'm not testing recipes for the site, I'm usually coaching Emma's tee-ball team or restoring my grandfather's old Weber kettle grill. My kitchen's always cluttered with sticky notes of spice ratios, and I still use Aunt Linda's bent-up fork for testing oil temperature - some habits die hard.
