Hello Shelley,
Of course, I can't get the actual CB recipe, but try the clones below.
The second one is just for the dumplings - you'll have to do the chicken
on your own.
Phaed
Old-Fashioned Chicken and Dumplings
4-6 servings
This tastes just like Cracker Barrel's, if you have ever tried it.
From the book "Old Fashioned Country Cooking" found at Cracker Barrel.
1 (3-pound) frying chicken (any whole chicken will do)
2 quarts water
2 tsp. salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper (I use course ground and double it)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 tbsp. shortening (I use Crisco sticks)
3/4 cup buttermilk (I add 1 tbsp. vinegar to 1 cup milk let sit 5 minutes,
then measure 3/4 cup)
Place chicken in a Dutch oven. Add water and 2 tsp. salt. Bring to a boil.
Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 1 hour or until tender (should almost
fall off bone). Remove the chicken from the broth and cool. Bone the chicken
and cut meat into bite-sized pieces.
Bring the broth to a boil and add pepper.
Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the shortening. Add the
buttermilk, stirring with a fork until moistened. Knead the dough 4 to 5
times (never done), and pat to 1/2-inch pieces and drop into boiling broth
(I do not pat it out, just pinch off pieces).
Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Stir in the chicken and serve.
I make it in the pressure cooker, much quicker and easier. I pressure it for
only 30 minutes.
It can also be done in the crockpot with 4 cups water. Cook on high 3-4 hours
or low 6-8 hours.
