You have to use a well seasoned cast iron skillet, that's the key.

Soak in buttermilk and hot sauce for a few hours

Buttermilk, seasoned flour, egg wash/hot sauce mixture, back in the flour, back in the egg wash, one more dip in the flour then into the fryer after shaking off the excess.

You can never hurt chicken by brining it the night before you cook it. That'll help you with the overdone part.

Moma always used lard, That about the only thing I use it for these days, also only a couple times a year, other methods or a oil that's not as bad for you.
