The KFC in Beaufort is definitely not convenient to where I live. I
don't know about the 11 herbs & spices but KFC's chicken pot pie is
surprisingly good! Nice flaky crust.

Around here there's a local fried chicken option. It's got an historic
sign that evokes an old diner/dive:

Maryland Fried Chicken. With a big yellow chicken on the sign!

Hmmm, they also sell fried pork chops and fish. And oh! Hush puppies!
