The now infamous Popeyes chicken sandwich was finally restocked on Sunday, so people are back at it trying to get a taste. (I had my first today and it was life-changing.)

But if you want to try to make your own version, YouTuber Joshua Weissman has a recipe that he says is even better.

Now, the Popeyes chicken sandwich is pretty basic. Stacked between two butter-toasted buns are just three ingredients: sauce, pickles, and their legendary fried chicken.

But Weissman brings up some good points in his recreation. The chicken could be a tad crunchier, and the pickle layout is suboptimal. Finally, Weissman's bun simply can't be beat.

Watch and decide for yourself which sandwich looks and sounds better. If you dare to try Weissman's, he lists his recipe in the video description.
