librarianjenn: I love doing this in my Kitchenaid, makes very quick work of shredding chicken. You just have to watch it closely, because it shreds very quickly.
retroshark: Also a great way for coating your entire kitchen in chicken particles.
IWishIWasAShoe: Is he doing this on raw chicken?
Rustymetal14: If you cook your chicken right then it’s much more of a hassle to get out your hand mixer, assemble it, turn it on for a half second then disassemble, clean it and put it away. A fork will do the same job in 2 seconds.
ArthurDaTrainDayne: If you count cleaning time for the mixer, its definitely faster to do it by hand
DarthSkittles: This is actually pretty great for people with arthritis or other issues with their hands. Doing it by hand can be pretty painful, but chucking it in the Kitchenaid bowl for a bit is a lot easier, quicker, and less painful I’m our case.
Ginge04: I use a potato masher, works well if your chicken is tender enough
Tehlaserw0lf: This is neither quicker or easier than using your hands how tf is this a food hack?
slimjoel14: It doesn’t take that long to shred chicken, youve still gotta get the mixer put, plug it in and clean it, much easier to use two forks…… Unless of course you were preparing shredded chicken for 10+ people.
Chronostimeless: Literally hacked food.
wwwhistler: i used to get cooked chicken thighs/legs from Costco very cheaply. i would shred them and freeze them. i can”t do that anymore because Costco now throws them away. they cut the breast meat off some of their rotisserie chicken and throw away the rest ( 2 thighs, 2 legs, 2 wings). why they now do this i have no idea and neither did the Costco employees i talked to.
bestfapper: Oh shit. Carnitas here I come .
DapperDop: Genius 0.0
hyper_sloth: I’ve been subscribed to this sub for almost 3 years now I think. This is the first actual food hack I’ve seen
nolij420: Can I do this with a pork butt?
berrynotron: Just slinging salmonella everywhere
artrabbit05: This is why I use Reddit
