Rub down the heat of the county mayor, let's talk about the grilled chicken that the wang county mayor ate!
This grilled chicken is a classic of Lu cuisine, and the Shanghe grilled chicken is also the true legend of Texas grilled chicken.
As early as the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, with the prosperity of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Dezhou became a necessary place for the capital to reach nine provinces, and there were people who carried baskets and sold roast chickens in the city of the state and on the water and drought docks. According to Li Chuanhao, vice president of the Texas Culinary Association, at that time, there was only one practice of "roast chicken" in Texas, although it was not very famous, but it was also meticulously crafted, full of color and flavor, and began to take shape of "grilled chicken".
To examine the origin of Texas grilled chicken, the folk have such a saying: "Texas watermelon is Wucheng's rice, Texas grilled chicken is Yucheng's soup." It means that Texas Grilled Chicken originated in Yucheng.
According to the Records of Yucheng County, the earliest person to make grilled chicken was Wang Mingkui of The Crescent Bay Village in the north of Yucheng City, whose ancestors made a living by boiling chicken. His family crossed the legs of the chicken into the chamber, stuffed the two wings from the knife edge of the chicken's neck, let the wings protrude from the sides of the mouth, and then put on the material, known as "grilled chicken".
Later, in order to attract business, he used his brain and asked an old Chinese medicine doctor to prescribe 5 spices such as cloves, cinnamon, peppercorns, large ingredients, and small fennel, and the chicken cooked was appetizing, and when he rushed to the countryside, he sold "spiced grilled chicken".
One evening in the autumn of the seventeenth year of Qing Guangxu (1891 AD), 18-year-old Wang Mingkui boiled more than 20 chickens in a pot. Good wood was added to the stove, because he was too tired, Wang Mingkui snoozed by the stove and fell asleep, who knew that when he woke up, the stew was too big. One look at the chickens in the pot collapsed, a mention of the chicken legs, the bones and flesh separated.
He had to carefully fish the chickens into the basket with an iron fence and mention it to the county seat to sell. In front of the county gate, he shouted "New to the spiced boneless grilled chicken", and the word "boneless" suddenly attracted the attention of everyone, and a basket of grilled chicken was snatched up. Since then, the "spiced boneless grilled chicken" has spread.
In order to attract more customers, Wang Mingkui improved the process, increased the spices of boiled chicken, simmered for a long time until the bones were removed, and the grilled chicken was more delicious and delicious, and the business was booming. At the beginning of the following year, he purchased a four-point homestead and eight houses on the T-shaped street in front of the county yamen, set up a frontage facade, and hung a sign of "spiced boneless grilled chicken shop". His son Wang Jisan was inquisitive and mastered Wang Mingkui's craft. For more than 20 years, the father and son have successively opened grilled chicken shops in Yucheng Railway Station, Zhan Hua, Lijin, Weiba Road in Jinan and other places with superb technology.
Since the first year of the Qing Dynasty (1909 AD), with the opening of the Jinpu Railway, there have been more people in Yucheng who make a living making grilled chicken, among which Wang Yuting, an old chef in Chengguan Matun Village, has continuously improved the process, and the quality of the grilled chicken produced has exceeded that of Wang Mingkui's father and son, making the grilled chicken this cuisine more prosperous. During the Years of the Republic of China, the area around Yucheng Railway Station gradually added "Fuheju", "Xiangshengju" and "Eight Major Places" and other grilled chicken shops, and for a time there was a saying of "smelling the incense and getting off the train, tasting it as fast".
The old town of Texas had only roast chicken before the construction of the Jinpu Railway. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the most famous person in Texas to make roast chicken was Xu Enrong, nicknamed "Xu Roast Chicken". Every day, he carried a rectangular cabinet full of roast chicken and ran the streets to sell it. In the summer, it is wrapped with castor leaves, and if it is used as a gift, it is wrapped in a pu bag, and the label is printed with "Xu Ji Roast Chicken". In 1905, on the basis of Yucheng grilled chicken, Hou Baoqing, the treasurer of the Baolanzhai Hotel, began to trial-produce grilled chicken. In 1911, Han Shigong, the manager of deshun Zhai Roast Chicken Shop, carefully summarized the experience of his predecessors, groped in many ways, and finally mastered the production process of grilled chicken.
Grilled chicken with the Jinpu Railway north to south, the supply is in short supply, the history of the market of the roast chicken is slow to sell, roast chicken operators have sought Han Shigong for art. As a result, dozens of grilled chicken shops appeared near the railway station, and the production process and quality of grilled chicken were also raised to a higher level, so the reputation of grilled chicken spread farther and farther.
