Fill up a heavy bottom pot just over halfway, at least 2” inches of vegetable oil. Heat to 350F. Fry your chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding for about 2 - 3 minutes, remove and drain on a wire rack.
Place your fried chicken in a bowl, then add 1 cup of your favorite wing sauce, and toss until completely coated.
Spread mayo on the bottom bun, next place your saucy chicken onthe bun, then add 2 - 3 pickles on top and finally crown your sandwich with the top bun. Enjoy and repeat with different sauces.
