Chocolate Cherry Chipotle Chicken Lollipops

Killit_and_Grillit

Name says it all. Indirect at 350.

Glaze/sauce was cocoa powder, whole chipotles, cherry preserves, a little real cinnamon, ketchup, molasses, salt, pepper, yada yada. 



My my daughter was watching Moana and requested a little “The Heart if Tafiti” ranch in the sauce.

Dang- chicken lollipops are a labor intensive deal.  The sauce/glaze is one worthy of a go.  She has you wrapped around her finger and that's "as it should be."  Banquet right there.  Congrats.

Those look far too nice considering how I would destroy that plate. Great work on those!

Great cook presentation brother!  How'd the cocoa powder fare the cook?  Subtle chocolate?  Nice job.

Next time you make this, I'll bring over a 15 yr old to do diaper duty while we eat.

@northGAcock. Simple. She deals with poo. I deal with dinner. 

@bgebrent this was a test run for a Christmas appetizer.  I was thinking a chocolate covered Cordial cherry as a red sauce and green celery to garnish.  Then I started looking at some ideas and got close on a chipotle deal some guys had online. 

@theyolksonyou you bring the babysitter and I’ll open up the liquor cabinet, start a fire, pull out the couch/bed and y’all can leave in February. 

@lousubcap I said something to my sister (who is the real chef) and I could here sadness in her voice. She said, “sharpen a boning knife. Make the dish. Throw it away.”  Apparently she worked as a Sous in a restaurant that served them. After making them...I concur. Like ribs. Labor of love and the sauce makes the dish.

@tarheelmatt Some days I can’t get out of my own way. And chicken drumsticks were like $2 for 12. 

Definitely moving these to the Saturday afternoon lineup though. Prepping that chicken took about an hour.

Lol.. I feel you.  

I did some lollipop a month or so ago.   I got to the 5th drumstick and said screw it.  The rest were non-lollipoped.  

Soooo, did you know how to spell the Tafiti?  Be honest?
