    Another question on the stuffed thighs and keeping the stuffing inside.  Do you pound them flat and roll them or slice a pocket and stuff?

    Sounds like a job for meatglue!

    I really do need to try some myself. My solution for stuffed thighs was just fold back over, and apply several toothpicks along the edges.

    I do chicken breast stuffed with ham and Swiss, switched to bacon and some Gorgonzola for more flavor. Cook on foil or a pan to catch melted cheese. Def kick the seasoning up. More salt plus sage or thyme is good. I serve with a white sauce made with chicken broth and spices

    I use this seasoning on chicken fairly often and everyone in my family LOVES it.

    In the produce section a lot of times you can find fresh pesto and olive tapenades .. spread those on the inside of your chicken .. it will also give your cheese something to bond to.  Fig spread, prosciutto and parmesan also works nicely.

    Roll a little loose ..leave the cheese somewhere to go besides squirting out the sides.

    You don't have to put smoke chips to get a nice fire cooked flavor on meats. Removing the chips will also allow you to cook vegetables at the same time.  peppers, onions, mushrooms skewered

    Try Goya Adobo seasoning... a great blend in a pinch.
