PREPARATION
For spicy mayo and slaw:
Mix Catch a Fire Italian Garlic, Hatch Chile Mayonnaise, and Pain is Good Batch #218 Louisiana Style Hot Sauce in a small bowl; cover and chill. Toss onion, Texas Sweet & Hot Jalapeños, cabbage, 20 Pepper Hot Garlic Dill Pickles, and pickle juice in a large bowl to combine; cover and chill.
For fried chicken and assembly:
Whisk flour, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Hot Pepper Sea Salt in a shallow bowl. Pour buttermilk into another shallow bowl. Working with 1 piece at a time, dredge chicken in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip in buttermilk, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Dredge again in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
Pour Extravagonzo Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil into a large heavy skillet to a depth of 1/2″. Prop deepfry thermometer in Extravagonzo Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil so bulb is submerged. Heat over medium heat until thermometer registers 350°F.
Fry chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a baking sheet; season with Cayenne Hot Pepper Sea Salt. Spread cut sides of rolls with butter. Heat another large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook rolls buttered side down until browned and crisp, about 1 minute.
Spread with spicy mayo. Build sandwiches with rolls, chicken, and cabbage slaw.
