WFF Peri Peri Chicken Thighs

[SmokinAl]

I have always wanted to make these after seeing a thread by disco , so when I was making an order for WFF, I came across these & just put them in my cart.

OK, so here is where it gets weird . I just took the whole package out of the freezer & put it in the SV at 135 for 6 hours.

After 6 hours out of the bath.

Onto a tray to dry off a bit.

Next a quick sear on the gasser.

We took the leftover marinade, added some BBQ sauce & boiled it down to make a glaze.

Next into a 350 degree oven to set the glaze.

Ready to eat with some wild rice & a lettuce wedge.

This was one of the easiest meals we have prepared. It was very tasty, tender, & juicy. So far we have not been disappointed by Wild Fork Foods. Thanks for looking folks!!

Looks great. No worries in label coming Off in the SV? I’ve wondered about just putting the whole package in like that.

Looking good, Al! I will have to look at this one.

Were these on-line or in store? I haven't noticed them on-line, but I could have easily overlooked them. All our shopping is on-line since nearest store is 4-1/2 hours away.

We have been happy with 99% of what we have received from WFF. They changed their packaging and I don't like it as much as the styrofoam cooler in a box they used to use. Last order came in box with some sort of insulated, paper covered pouches lining all the sides. Only issue is that the box got crushed some during shipping. Insulation was falling apart and all except a very small piece of the dry ice remained. All the meat seemed to still be frozen. But while trying to unpack and separate all the meat from the damaged insulation, I overlooked a skirt steak. Found it next morning when started to put all the packaging in our trash container. Should have looked closer but would not have happened with their old packaging.

Nice work with SV and repurposing the marinade for a glaze.

Very Nice! I can vouch for Disco's Piri piri chicken thighs...they are good! Thanks for bringing that up...I need to make them again soon!!!

Looks absolutely delicious, Al! I have a question though: is it safe to sous vide meat/poultry in store bought packaging? Is the packaging suitable /safe to use in hot temperatures? Yes, I know they use good quality food grade plastic for packaging but as much as I know it intends to be used for cold temperatures.... Am I mistaken? I tried to google it but couldn't find definitive answer...

Al, that looks great! Wild Fork opened a store 10 minutes from our house and we are very impressed with them.

Al, that looks awesome, it really does. We do the lettuce wedge salad often and with bacon crumbles. I like mine with blue cheese, the wife likes ranch. I'll be over later for a plate of leftovers...
