Thighs for Wednesday supper.

Mattman3969

Wife had a work dinner so I was on my own. As I have said before when she is gone I cook what she won't eat.
Picked up some thighs and rubbed with a Cajun rub I had on the shelf. Once they hit 165 I glazed with a peach/jalepeno jelly that I warmed until runny.
On the small with some peach wood
For the side I just had a simple salad. The thighs were the best I have made to date. Skin wasn't super crispy because of the glaze but hey that's fine when it taste good.

SGH

Excellent cook, plating and pics. Home run my friend! Solid all around. =D>

I guess by sayin the SWMBO was gone everybody knows that I played with the flowers :-S

Great looking cook, with an often over looked ingredient.  Both chicken and turkey thighs cook up great on the BGE.

Mattman3969

Thanks Doc. I like the thighs much better than the breast meats any day.

Jeremiah

Did you give yourself the flowers?? :P

Just kidding. thighs look good, I can't seem to nail those.

Actually my neighbor brought the flowers in a box with some tomatoes,cukes & peaches. I just played with the flowers

Hey don't worry about it. I like to take myself on a date occasionally too.

{Um...this is um...well actually I don't mind going to weddings or anything, as long as there not my own I show up. But I've always kinda been partial to calling myself up on the phone and asking myself out, you know? Oh yeah, you call yourself up too huh? Yeah, well one thing about it, your always around. Yeah I know, yeah you ask yourself out, you know, some class joint somewhere. The Buretto King or something, you know. Well I ain't cheap you know. Take yourself out for a couple of drinks maybe. Then there'd be some provocative conversation on the way home. Park in front of the house you know. Oh yeah, you smoothly put a little nice music on, maybe you put on like uh, you know, like shopping music, something thats not too interruptive you know and then uh slide over real nice and say 'Oh I think you have something in your eye'. Well maybe it's not that romantic with you but Christ I don't know, you know I get into it you know. Take myself up to the porch, take myself inside or maybe uh, or may get a little something, a brandy snifter or something. 'Would like you like to listen to some of my back records? I got something here' Uh Well usually about 2.30 in the morning you've ended up taking advantage of yourself. There ain't no way around that you know. Yeah, making a scene with a magazine, there ain't no way around. I'll confess you know, I'm no different you know. I'm not weird about it or anything, I don't tie myself up first. I just kinda spend a little time with myself
So this is kind of a little anthem here}

That describes my whole evening. It did take me a while to ask myself out but it all went good. Thank You LS for not making me feel alone in my thinkings. :x

Very nice, solid cook, i love it when the wife goes out, liver and onions or bluefish. Stinky cheese, gin martinis. Elbows on the table.

Mattman3969

Jstroke

Ahhh, liver on the egg, fried onion and canned gravy with mashed spuds and peas. Six pints O' Guinness. Heaven! Only trouble is she isn't there for the Dutch Oven.

Beautiful cook!

Next time, if you must have a plant in the shot have a cactus!

Wouldn't have noticed about the flowers until you brought it to our attention. I was focused on the food. Excellent job.
