Not sure if anyone has seen these but they are split chicken thighs. They are awesome for grilling. I know you're probably saying "That's just a regular thigh split right down the middle." But there's something about em that makes them extremely tasty.Not sure if its the exposed bone marrow. I haven't really seen them start to sell them much until several months ago around here. Got them at the local HEB. Of course here is a little pron. Did half with Tony's and half with Yardbird. Really loving that yardbird and I'm glad I bought it. Cooked with regular K and a small mesquite chunk. As far as I know its a south texas thing but I may be wrong. They might be in corpus sapo if you wanna check out HEB. That's where I've found them and the mexican meat markets.

Looks good. Danny Gaulden has a great stuffed thigh recipe inspired by a restaurant called "Doc Hollidays" or so the rumor goes. I will post it in the recipe section if it aint already there.

BW, you talking about Cuzin Homer's chicken delights?


that's a new cut on me. You like it better because you've doubled
the surface area that's picking up the lovely smoke/grill flavor.
 
If that the Cuzin Homer who looks and talks like Sling Blade and lives down on the Brazos River in an old school bus..yep thats the same one.

The Cuz is an old Texan who I thought you might know. His recipe
for bacon wrapped boneless skinless thighs with a slice of jap in the middle was one of my first great discoveries when I first started searching the net for grilling/smoking recipes back in the late 50's.
 
You being a very bad boy Cappy. Everybody knows Algore and Prez Osama had not got around to inventing cyberspace back in them days. We was still sitting in the front porch swing eating ho made ice cream swatting mosquitoes. I am gonna have to talk Sherrif Taylor into taking away your bullet. Sorry about that. Aunt Bea is gonna really be *issed too. Not sure you make it into Opey's next movie etc.

I have been buying leg quarters since they were 29 cents a pound in the 80's.. HEB has them fresh down here too...Yours came out perfecto!! Where did you get the seasonings?
 
In case no one has heard of Plowboys Yardbird Rub it is awesome stuff and probably one of the most popular rubs everyone on another forum i visit uses for chicken and pork. Sapo you'll love it since I've watched your videos and I know you like to try new rubs. Both of these are great places to order it. It is a competition winning rub over and over again. The other rub is Tony Chachere's which you can get at HEB and it good on absolutely everything.
