Vortex thighs

[flatbroke]

Put a pack of thighs on the weber as I arrived home late from the salt mine. Seasoned with Kosmos Killer Bee and started the chimney of kingsford professional. Added a couple chunks of pecan and set timer for 45 min.

It was windy out as rain is expected soon. 45 min was a bit too long but they came out good.

Probed 195-197 with thermapen. I’m sure the smaller ones were higher but I didn’t check them all

The Vortex is the absolute best accessory for a Weber, and those thighs show exactly why. Great job. They look awesome.

My weber don't seem to run that hot with vortex. I end up around 1.5 hours at 165-170. Kingsford professional burn that much hotter? Not available here.

They look awesome but I thought you was a clock maker, you wound the springs.

thanks. I figured peachey needed help getting the Himalayan salt for the rub tweak. A friend In need is a friend indeed.

I would say you nailed them! They look perfect to me. I got to where I pretty much brine all my chicken now. Usually start in morning.

 

[GA1dad]

Oh yeah!!! I'd tear up one or five of those!

Great looking cook! Love me some chicken thighs!

 

[Smokin Okie]

Gotta love chicken with some char ... looks great.

Some good looking thighs FB. The kettle/vortex combo is tough to beat.

Point for sure

Man we were on the same wave length yesterday! I did the exact same thing right down to the pecan wood. Served mine up with a simple salad and baked tater.

Stoked my Vortex up for thigh lunches this week.

Only four thighs.

20 minutes later.

Almost makes you not want to sauce but I have to. Blues Hog raspberry chipotle with Angry orchard as a thinner.

Sorry no plated/container shots.
