    cooked pieces into sauce; return to baking sheet.
    Increase oven temperature to 400ºF/205ºC; bake until a
    thermometer reads 175ºF/79ºC, about 10 minutes. Serve
    chicken with dipping sauces and, if desired, additional
    pickle slices.

    In a large heat-resistant bowl, whisk
    together the cayenne, brown sugar,
    chile powder, granulated garlic, paprika, 1
    tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon black
    pepper. Sprinkle the spice mixture on all
    sides of the chicken. Transfer the chicken
    to a container and refrigerate at least 1
    hour and up to 3 hours. Leave the
    remaining spice mixture in the bowl.

    In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil until a deep-fry
    thermometer inserted in the oil registers 350ºF/175ºC.
    Position a wire rack on a baking sheet.

    Whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce and eggs in a
    shallow bowl. Put the flour in a second bowl and season
    with salt and pepper. Dunk the chicken first in the
    buttermilk mixture, then dredge in the seasoned flour
    and coat thoroughly. Gently drop the chicken into the
    oil, in batches if necessary, and fry until golden
    brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the cooked chicken to
    the wire rack.

    Carefully add about 1 large ladleful (6 to 8 ounces) of
    the frying oil to the reserved spice mixture to let it
    bloom. Be careful, as it will bubble aggressively.

    Whisk until smooth. Brush the fried chicken with the
    bloomed spiced oil as desired. For the sandwich build:
    Meanwhile, halve the Hawaiian rolls, spread with butter
    and toast on a griddle. Put the hot chicken on the
    griddled buns, top with pickles, lettuce and a schmear
    of mayo.

    Yield: 4 sandwiches
