I did these a while back, but never got around to posting them, until now. One day I hope to enter a KCBS contest. I have played around with thighs, but it seems no matter what method I use, they still suck .
So I figured I would french some drumsticks and see how it goes.
First, I made a cut just under the ankle joint.
Then I removed the ankle joint, as many of the tendons as possible, and the pin bone.
I pushed the meat down on the bone to form a "Lollipop" shape.
I marinated them over night, then sprinkled them with some rub.
I threw them on the grill.
Then I put them in a butter bath to tenderize the skin.
Covered them in sauce and put them in the box.
My presentation is a little sloppy and I didn't have parsley or lettuce, so I had to use kale. However, these were fantastic. They were nice and juicy, and the skin was very tender. Much better than any thigh I've ever cooked. I'm defiantly going to do these again. Thanks for looking.
