I have a great recipe for fried chicken which is fried in peanut oil.

Has anyone ever added bacon grease to their frying fat for chicken? If so, is it good, and how much would you add?
 
I do not make wonderful fried chix, but my former roommate from Louisville did.

She always put a slice of uncooked bacon in the frying grease.
 
Well I tried it...added about a Tbs of bacon grease and it didn't taste any different. Sure was juicy though!
