Thighs 2 ways

Frank from Houma

Had some of Richard's Lemon Peel rub and Smokin Chipolte and tried both out on some thighs - they are mightyfine.



Got the mini the 600 and started skin down
I didn't find the skin down did anything extra for the cook
Next time 400 indirect from the start


Added 8" pizza stone and adjusted vents for 350 - Sauced the two with Smokin Chipolte and hit the other two with a little lemon butter when they hit around 175 and pulled around 185




Lagniappe - Received a 5# box of shelled pecans from the boss. Vacuum packed in two cup packs. Drizzled two cups with two TBS of butter and dropped into a ziplock and shook with 1/2 c of brown sugar. Smoked with some pecan after I pulled off the thighs.


Is that legal? Smoking pecans with pecan? Sounds incestuous.

LDD

the incestuous pecans must have been top shelf!

thanks for the idea.. i will add to our christmas party menu

I'll have one of each! Those look great. Looks like a perfect dinner for 2 on the mini.

Bring the leftovers to Spring please
What size is the skillet that you are using on the mini?

Looks great, Frank.

Funny on the pecans.

BTW....I am awaiting word on a job down in CC. Hold your breath, say some prayers, keep your fingers crossed or whatever. You may have another fellow egger in your area soon. :woohoo:

Pretty sure it's an 8"

Picked up three at ACE Hardware a couple years ago for a ridiculous price of like $10. Included a 10", 8", and 4".

Frank,

The thighs look delicious! Richard's rubs are fantastic. I really like the pecans. How did the pecan on pecan taste?

Frank from Houma

It's good. Little strong right off the egg but will mellow over the next five days or so.
