About 6 Piece Fun Box
The Golden Corral 6 Piece box costs $13.49 and carries 1950 calories. Hand breaded fried chicken packed for the table, sized to feed 2 to 3 people as a main course, and one of the simplest ways to put dinner on the table without cooking.
Fried chicken by the box is where Golden Corral competes directly with dedicated chicken chains, and the price per piece usually lands lower. Add mashed potatoes and yeast rolls and the meal is complete. The recipe below is the same buttermilk brine method the kitchen uses.

How to Make 6 Piece Fun Box at Home?
Restaurant fried chicken is brined first, breaded twice, and fried at a temperature you have to actually measure. Those three steps are the whole difference.

Brine
Breading
Directions
0 of 8 steps
Tips
- Rest dredged chicken 10 minutes before frying so the coating grips.

- Hold finished batches in a 200 F oven on a rack while you fry the rest.
Variations
- Double the cayenne for a spicy box.
- Add a tablespoon of MSG to the flour for a savory boost.
- Brine with pickle juice instead of buttermilk.
Serving Ideas
- Serve with mashed potatoes, green beans and yeast rolls.
- Cold fried chicken and coleslaw is the better next day lunch.
- Pull leftovers into a salad or sandwich.
