I will delicately answer this question, as I know it's a trap....well?
was that dark meat more flavorful and juicy?

I am an equal opportunity eater, dark meat, light meat, all meats are welcome in my home.

@sweebeanz you gotta take your idea and make a cook book.
Everyone should post up recipes and how to's.
Mostly for amateurs like me
I'd love to see these recipes on a organized thread or some thing. In fact I would love that recipe!
I'm on a chicken recipe tear. Need new ideas
We ate like animals growing up with all those boys in the house, you had to eat fast to make sure you got everything you wanted (not needed). Yet it was always bad manners to take the last piece of chicken off the plate, we'd all just stare at it. I was diving in bare handed for dem chx legs and thighs, till one night my lil brother put a fork in the back of my handIm a dark meat guy too , come Thanksgiving those drumsticks are mine !![]()

Great. This and the mex dish I'm gonna try and tackle for starters. I gotta book mark theseThis one was EASY brother!
You need a cast iron pan and 5-6 chicken thighs, a bit of vegetable oil, salt, pepper and lemon & herbs are optional (however, the lemon really make a HUGE difference).
Preheat oven to 475f
Heat the tablespoon of oil in the cast iron on high heat, just under "smoking". Have your chicken thighs at room temp, liberally salt and pepper both sides.
Put them in the hot oil skin side down. You want as much contact w/ the skin and the hot oil as possible. Let this cook for 2 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium-high and cook for another 12 minutes, rotating the chicken every 2 or so minutes to ensure even browning.
After that, chuck them into the oven in the pan for 13 more minutes (this is when I add the lemon slices and the herbs to the pan). After 13 minutes, flip the chicken now so it's skin side UP! Try to not let the lemon sit on the crispy skin in the over, rather let it continue to cook in the oil (soggy skin isn't as good). Take the whole pan out after another 5 minutes. Pull the pieces out of the pan and let them rest at least 3 minutes.
Serve with the cooked lemon slices on the chicken. The flavor combo of the crispy skin, the chicken fat and the cooked lemon is truly awesome.
Good luck Truk!
This one is easy as hell. Literally you need a knife, the ingredients, a cast iron and a cutting board!Great. This and the mex dish I'm gonna try and tackle for starters. I gotta book mark these
lol that statement contradicts itself hahaI missed out on a ton by being an only child!
The girl and I were talking about that last not. Not sure if we want 1 or 2... I'm siding with 1!
I know! That's why it's so hard to decide! I wanna get the old snipper-oo after we pop out the amount of kids we want, so it's pretty final LOL!lol that statement contradicts itself haha

I lack the skillet. Looks like I'll need to pick one up. But those are good ideas. I'd never of thought to do shit like that! Yall are inspiring me to grow in to the next foodie level.This one is easy as hell. Literally you need a knife, the ingredients, a cast iron and a cutting board!
Buy the Lodge brand. For the money, they're the best. Lookup how to take care of 'em, you need to oil it when you're done with it and never use soap to clean it. The cast iron is a MUST in the kitchen! You can bake in it and cook in it. It'll last you generations if you take care of it right, and only get a better flavor over time!I lack the skillet.

Watch I'll make it and the wife won't eat it. Bitch![]()
