You can stuff them with various goodies, roll, wrap in bacon and cook, quite raised direct for me to til bacon is finished-the thighs will be done but check to make sure-somewhere around 165*F.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint.

I came here to say this. One popular variation of these are "chicken bombs"lousubcap said:You can stuff them with various goodies, roll, wrap in bacon and cook, quite raised direct for me to til bacon is finished-the thighs will be done but check to make sure-somewhere around 165*F.

You can stuff with anything though. For example, leftover mashed potatoes.
Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. -
The sky is the limit with chicken thighs my friend. They are great stuffed with just about anything.

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
If you have a meat grinder, you could make sausage. It's not as good as pork, but still good and MUCH lower in sat fat and sodium. Breakfast sausage, Italian or Mexican chorizo...

Joan's (Austin Egghead) recipe for Carne Guisada works extremely well with chicken thighs (as well as the beef in the recipe). Posted by Judy Mayberry. This stuff is DELICIOUS!!

Or, you could just grind it up and mix in a packet of taco seasoning.I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Jerk!

Thanks @lousubcap, @SmokeyPitt, brother @SGH and @Carolina Q.
These are all great ideas! I did some pretty good chicken bombs a while back that might be replicated.
I really like the fried chicken sandwich idea from @fishlessman!

Mix 2 parts bbq sauce to 1 part bottled Italian dressing. Marinate the thighs for anywhere from 15 minutes to 4 hours (ie, it really doesn't matter much). Do them direct at about 375-400, turning frequently until just a little crispy around the edges. Serve with any leftover bbq sauce (no Italian dressing).

Now I'm assuming you mean jerk chicken? I'm interested - never done it before. Any good recipes?Large - Mini - Blackstone 17", 28", 36"

I forgot to mention JERK! Get a jar of Walkerswood or Grace jerk seasoning and spoon sone on the thighs. Into a zip bag for a couple of hours (or more) and grill. They make both hot and mild versions of the seasoning.
Also, you could marinate in Goya Criollo for 2-3 hours, add some cherry for smoke and try this...
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

@Carolina Q - wow both of those look amazing. Can that jerk seasoning be picked up at like a Kroger or Publix??
Large - Mini - Blackstone 17", 28", 36"

Yeah, should be able to. The Walkerswood stuff is pretty good. Have a lady I work with from Jamaica and says that is what they use and she gave me two jars to try.fence0407 said:@Carolina Q - wow both of those look amazing.

Lol - Kinda like me having never seen a Wegman's before. I'll take a look around at a few places and see what I come up with.Carolina Q said:

Thanks Matt - I'll look around for it. If I can find some, I think that might be what I do with the thighs.tarheelmatt said:

I just use the two in the right as a dipping sauce. I haven't marinated with them. I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Thanks for the visual - now I know what to look for. We have a Sprouts farmer's market near us that tends to carry different products. Maybe they'll have it.Carolina Q said:Large - Mini - Blackstone 17", 28", 36"

One of my favorites for chicken thighs, that I got either from this forum or the original one:
Grilled Lemon Tarragon Chicken Thighs
1 lb. Boneless, skinless Chicken Thighs
1/6 cup Lemon Juice
1 tbsp. Soy Sauce
1/2 tsp. Smoked Paprika
1/2 tbsp. Tarragon
1 tbsp. Garlic minced
1/2 tbsp. salt Kosher
Directions: Marinate 30 min to an hour. Grill at 400 or a little higher to 165-170 .

Those skewers are in regular rotation at my house. The recipe rocks.

You're gonna have to buy more chicken thighs!

I know, right! I stopped by Publix at lunch and they didn't have any of the Walkerswood Jerk marinade. Gave Sprouts a call, no luck there either. Guess I'll try Kroger on my way home.theyolksonyou said:You're gonna have to buy more chicken thighs!Large - Mini - Blackstone 17", 28", 36"

Walmart carries Grace brand. Just as good IMO.
