What is your favorite chicken part to grill?

[Joan]

Yes, working on my chicken binders. Just wondering if the most chicken recipes I have are the same as what you all like to cook. Would appreciate your input.

Absolutely, unequivocally the thigh. And not just for grilling - I use it for all cooking styles and recipes; anything calling for a BSCB gets a BSCT instead.

for grilling? boneless skinless thighs are my favorite. bone-in, skin-on are also good, but I do prefer boneless

 

[Lynn Dollar]

I grilled boneless skinless thighs last evening. They were delicious. Used for taco meat.

I usually buy bone in thighs cause they be cheaper per #. Leg quarters are another.
The local latino market has leg quarters sliced in half (the long way) with a band saw.
Those take a marinade well and grill super fast.

Thighs all the way.

At $1.00/lb. here this week, thighs are pretty high in the rotation. Bone in, I’m smart enough to bone them if I want.
Skin is just a side benefit!
That said, I have just done a batch of curried chicken for Saturday using a whole chicken (cut up) and the house smells delicious!
Followed that with prepping Paula Deen’s Mississippi pot roast and getting that in the crockpot for tomorrow night’s dinner.
I love food!

1) Wings (my weakness)
2) Skin on bone-in thighs (price and taste)
3) Thigh-Leg Quarters (price)
4) Boneless/Skinless Breasts (for wraps)

Ha Ha Christopher, what, you don't like bone-in breasts?

Bone in skin on thighs, just bought five family packs for $.69 a pound. If we need them boneless Barbs is a master with a filet knife, so no problem there. Use the vortex on the performer (when we can) and coat with mustard, we prefer yellow, dip in a plate of Fish Fry with added Weber's Kick'n Chicken and make some KFC (Kettle Fried Chicken).
Also just bought a boat load of monster sized BSCB for $.99 Lb., looking at recipes for those. Going to try a marinade and seasoning and give the Camp Chef a try with a couple.

Joan - I love all chicken to be honest. But those are my usuals.

Rich - Man I wish we had anything close to those prices in Canada!! Our chicken thighs on sale at best are $1.88. And out Boneless Skinless chicken breasts are $3.99 at best a lb.

 

[Joan]

Thank you all for posting. I am glad to see that thighs are the most popular. They are also my favorite part of the chicken, Second comes wings.

DH's favorite part of the chicken is boneless breast, and that is the binder I have been working on all day , a big full stuffed 3" binder. Can't wait till I get to the thigh binder. lol

YEAH!!!! finally out of the Asian section and starting to work on the Caribbean section.

But those are metric dollars, right?

Thighs for me, too, but you should check out Case T's thread on chicken drummies. Amazing.

 

[Joan]

T could you help me find it please?

 

[LMichaels]

For my own tastes good old bone in skin on thighs, then wings. I will tolerate bone in skin breast and legs though. But one of my fav things to do is spin a chicken on the rotisserie, and when done carving just cleaning off the bits and pieces on the carcass. I always make sure I leave the oysters on LOL.

 

[Richard Garcia]

Thighs but I really like those Gizzards in a Red Chile Sauce.

 

[Tim Campbell]

T could you help me find it please?

No sweat, Joan. I'm not really sure how to post the link of the thread, but use the search feature and enter "Korean bbq chicken drummies" and you'll see Case's post. They're amazing, imo. (Thanks Case T!!)
