Dodge’s Chicken Store

When a GAS STATION can destroy… and I mean decimate a KFC to the point the KFC went out of business then that says something.
Not only is this a place to get intestinal gas… you can also get gas for your car as well. You walk in and it appears to be a gas station, convenience store until you come to the counter that is dedicated to the gods of deep fried goodness. Their chicken is indescribably awesome and juicy. It is always fresh as it never stays in the cse long enough to get old.
Then there’s the «Jo Jo’s» what they call their potato wedges… I don’t need to describe just get some. This is a surprise that need not be spoiled.
They also have deep fried ears of corn that are dipped in the chicken coating. I’ve yet to ever be disappointed by their food. What amazes me is that the prices are not that much more than they were ten years ago. Expect the unexpected here. Trust me … and top your gas off it’s usually $.25 less per gallon than Louisville. Good excuse to go towards Fort Knox to do my grocery shopping since I live in Southwest Louisville.

Really good chicken! Spice was nice and selection was awesome. The best part though was how juicy it all was! I tried the wings, strips, and breasts. All were on point and needed no sauce. This place was a pleasant surprise for a quick lunch stop!

It all happened one say when I was 13 years old. My Dad and I were going fishing. I was hungry. Dodge’s Store was near. We popped in, and I got 12 spicy wings. We sat in the store while I ate. And my life was forever changed. It was like I had seen a vision. I knew that, from that day forward, I would never find fried chicken as good as that.
And you know what? I’m now 31 years old, and I still haven’t found fried chicken as good as Dodge’s Store. For serious. The closest I have found is Gus’s World Famous Hot & Spicy Fried Chicken in Memphis, TN. But it honestly isn’t as good. Anytime I drive through Muldraugh, whether I’m hungry or not, I’ll stop in and get chicken from Dodge’s.
The breading is incredible. I don’t know what they do to it to make it so good. Has an abundance of flavor, and a good crisp.
Truth be told — this place is merely a gas station. It’s not a chicken restaurant. There are a couple of places to sit, but not many. It’s definitely «to go» food. Which is fine. So if you’re expecting the red carpet treatment, go somewhere else. If you’re expecting the best fried chicken on planet earth, then Dodge’s Store is your place.

These guys donated food during an unfortunate situation to a team of about 15 – 20 of us. Thanks for supporting your troops!

Nice little place. Love the food.

i know this is a bit «out of the loop» but i have to say that you will not find any finer fried chicken at a gas station. every time i’ve been here there is always some deep frying taking place, even at 3am. sweet potato fry pie, deep fried corn on the cob, okra… seriously, if your stucky in tucky this one stop filling station will surely brighten your trip.
