This expression became a term of encouragement after the following exchange in a live New York local Fox News broadcast at the end of the weather report.
Ernie: "It takes a tough man to make a tender forecast, Nick."
Nick Gregory: "Well, I guess that's me!"
Ernie: "Keep fucking that chicken."
The first line is a parody of a commercial for Perdue chicken from the 1970's, in which Frank Perdue uttered the tag line, "It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken." "Keep fucking that chicken" was the punchline of a joke of the same time about how Perdue did it.

Get the Keep fucking that chicken mug.A term used to describe the driving style of someone who enjoys driving slowly, referring to the preferred MPH of the driver. The typical position of someone who's "keeping it 5" is elbow out the window, seat leaning back, and speakers blasting hip-hop. The most essential part involves the driving speed -- the slower, the better. Oftentimes, keeping it 5 will annoy other drivers, but those who truly keep it 5 will not let this affect their style.
Passenger: Hey come on man let's hurry up we gotta get there before the game starts
Driver: Chill we'll get there when we get there...I'm just tryna keep it 5
Driver: Chill we'll get there when we get there...I'm just tryna keep it 5
