Competition Chicken Thighs| How To|

[@4seasonsbbq]

I can't believe I missed this one. I think this is the recipe I tried when I met you in Omaha at the Church competition. That was some bad azz chicken. I like chicken thighs a little dark like that. Great video Kent. Keep up the great work my friend 👍

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Ron ! Have a great Thanksgiving!

[@bbqbourbonblues3257]

Excellent video Kent!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you so much ! I may need to go back to that method.....lol

[@Booger500us]

Wow that is amazingly intense...magical blue bottle huh....and Mini bread loaf pan..genius..crispy skin? cornstarch? Num Num!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you Ms Booger! No cornstarch tho!

[@PPGShane]

Seems like a lot of work but you made it look easy. Job well done.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Hey , Thanks Shane ! It is a lot more work when you first try it , but it gets easier with time!

[@EsieKecil]

Looks yuumyy

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you Esie !

[@rootboycooks]

Good video Kent! Rock On!

[@daddydutchbbq]

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Gayle! It’s a pain but necessary!

[@CookingWithCJ]

They look amazing brother! It made me want to make some chicken thighs.good stuff!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Brother CJ ! Well now you can try it my way.....lol

[@RivetGardener]

Chicken thighs are the best tasting meat. Beautiful tutorial, beautiful tasty finished product!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you so much for the kind words ! I agree on the thighs being the best of the chicken meat !

[@00solman]

Nice work on the skin! You make that look way easier than it is. Well done.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Jon. I've done a time or 1000. LOL. Chicken is truly a pain to prep. But if you want the results you have to put in the work.

[@Just8Ate]

This is probably one of the best competition chicken instructional clips I've seen up to now.! Clear instructions, detailed information and in such a well presented manner. You’re giving the competition guys a run for their money with this one!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you very much ! I can’t wait for our competition season to start !

[@PostalBarbecue]

So much great information here. Thanks man for sharing your secrets.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Jabin, Thanks for stopping by. I like sharing what I do, is it perfect? Probably not or I would win every comp I enter, but I enjoy the heck out of It! Cheers Jabin !

[@SmokinJoesBBQ]

Excellent, job Kent at making those competition chicken thighs and explaining how to do it. I will bet you they were awesome tasting after they were done. Also you showed great knife skills and you had hands of steel , I probably would have cut through the skin. LOL AWESOME JOB MY FRIEND. GOD BLESS YOU.!!!!!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Joe, thank you so much ! I wish I could say I learned how to do that overnight, but I cut through quite a few skins learning !....lol ! I appreciate your kind words !

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

I do binge on your vids, I learn stuff that most of the bbq channels don't focus on

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks TPC. I checked and you should get your package tomorrow.

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

@@daddydutchbbq thanks sire .... Trying to learn some comp tricks ... Never been good at Chicken. Ribs are my thing, pork and Brisket I have done ok with but chicken is my worst. I want to get back into Comps and build a new team since the Porkstars got split up, but I still have plenty to learn. Ribfests don't pay great but I hold my own in those 🤣😂🤣

[@daddydutchbbq]

@@2AChef-n-BBQ I'll have to show the way I do chicken now. Much different. Look up Fire Dancer bbq

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

@@daddydutchbbq will do, Thank you, yeah I try to watch a lot of these folks, and rarely glean much🤣😂

[@PicklesBBQandCooking]

Man Kent, you knocked this video and the chicken thighs out of the park! You made all that detailed work look easy. Great job buddy!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Charley , I’ve been doing this method for a few years now !

[@eastwindfarms3671]

Those look great!

[@mariasworld0074]

Looks very good, Kent. TFS👍🏽👍🏽

[@daddydutchbbq]

Maria, Thank You so much ! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kevinbongard6772]

What temp did you bring the thighs to......have seen folks at many different temps Great video

[@daddydutchbbq]

The safe minimum temperature for chicken is 165 degrees. I usually take them to 175-180 !

[@GrillTopExperience]

You make it look easy Kent. I know that took some practice. You explain it well.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Ryan, Thank You . Yes I’ve been doing this for a few years !

[@offthewallsbbqmore4821]

Thanks for these tips on chicken. Chicken is my nemesis.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Chicken has been my nemesis in the past too! Ever since I’ve started doing this my chicken scores are right at the top consistently! Give it a try and please let me know how it works for you ! My email is [e-mail]

[@offthewallsbbqmore4821]

Daddy Dutch BBQ I will definitely let you know.

[@LassesFoodAndBarbecue]

Thanks Kent, i really enjoy videos like this. Learning stuff every time!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Lasse ! Thank you Sir ! Glad you enjoyed it! More to come in the future!

[@meatcranium4280]

Frying them Skins like that are amazing as well like little chicken potato chips. Those look amazing

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Meaty C ! Crispy skin is a must !

[@Dansoutdoorcooking]

Great video, I never knew the work that went into making chicken thighs. I really learned a lot.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Hope you enjoyed it Dan ! Let me know if you try it sometime !

[@markmccaleb4038]

Great tutorial on chicken thighs. I've done a little of this and it's not super easy.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Yes Mark it isn’t that easy ! I appreciate you stopping by and I hope you enjoy my channel !

[@johnnymagsbbq8209]

Great video! Is this considered shigging!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Yes Johnnie it would be if I kept the video private !

[@OldfatguyCa]

Great tutorial!

[@daddydutchbbq]

[@THEREALSHOWBBQ]

Kent those look amazing bro. Awesome job my friend. You should do very well with those.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks brother! I hope we have a good Bbq season !

[@1984BBQ]

Great Cook Kent ... I like how you did that trim on that skin ... Those looked good and nice bite through ... Great job brother

[@daddydutchbbq]

John, Thanks brother !

[@strictlyquality]

Nice video great tips. I have been talking with Stan and trying to help him with his shipping costs to get them lowered. He is a great guy.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Michael! Thank you Sir ! Yes, Stan seems like good people ! How are you and Kim doing ? All is well I hope !

[@strictlyquality]

@@daddydutchbbq Kim and I are doing well. We are always way too busy, but we do what we can to keep up with everything that goes on. How have you been doing?

[@daddydutchbbq]

@@strictlyquality things are busy here too but going well ! i just need this weather to straighten out so i can get outside and cook ! Be well !

[@JPBBQ]

Outstanding!!! Love it Kent. Made me wanna do chicken thighs. Thanks bro.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you Juan ! Time to get in competition shape !

[@Viewtoagrill]

Chicken perfection!

[@daddydutchbbq]

It’s got me quite a few calls KCBS style comps.

[@CookinWithJames]

Damn Kent!! that is an awesome job!! can't wait to see how the comp turns out. are you going to film it? or some of it? Those thighs looked great. good cook brother!!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you James! When the weather straightens out, yes I plan on filming some comps !

[@RoundhouseRanchBBQ]

Those looked pretty good! I've been considering using the muffin tins to get the shape right, too

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks Eric ! The Pan makes it easier !

[@CookingwithStephennJacklyn]

Hey Kent great job on showing how to do competition style chicken thighs. Oh please no flipping of the knives please the pen is ok LOL.....

[@daddydutchbbq]

No, no knife flipping !

[@strictlyquality]

I think that it was James who taught me to dip the meat into the sauce to eliminate the brush strokes on the meat and it looks just clean and skinny and thick. So try dipping the thighs into the sauce instead of brushing them with a brush.

[@daddydutchbbq]

will do ! Thank you Sir!

[@daddydutchbbq]

i used Its Incredible on fried potatoes and onions last night ! OMG !

[@MizzRideOrDie]

Yummy

[@randyshifter]

I had to know, I seen Bill doing this on FB.. now I see what's going on. I want to give it a shot.

[@jamesreid5950]

What is the name of the pan!!!!

[@daddydutchbbq]

James, I will honestly have to look that up. If I recall correctly it is a mini loaf pan I purchased from Walmart. I appreciate you stopping by. I'll look for a name on the pan when I get home tonight ! Thanks for watching!

[@papajoecooking4425]

Professional looking competition thighs. The best I placed was 10th out of 80 here at the annual Pig Jig. Competing for years the worst I placed was 47th out of 60. Its like taking a shower with a rain coat on if you don’t take the time to prep the thighs like you did. Well done my friend for the easy to understand tutorial. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Kent 👌🏻👍🏻🤙🏻🤟🏻

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thank you PaPa Joe! 10th out of 80 is very respectable! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ngatiramona]

Your knife skills are beautiful to witness. Presentation, tips and construction.. something new was gratefully learned. 👏❤ But, most of all... JACK!!!😍 He's a competition winner for me.. no doubt about it. Lotsa love your way. xoxo

[@daddydutchbbq]

Mona , Thank You! I’m so happy you enjoyed it! Jack is ALWAYS around when I cook !

[@pbf1940]

Are you Tony Stark's mentor in Iron Man 1? Eitherway that's the best method for removing fat.

[@sideyardbarbecue3214]

When you said magic blue bottle, I was thinking skyy vodka. How did the basket work out?

[@daddydutchbbq]

The Bro n Sear works great ! Thanks for stopping by ! This chicken was really good ! I appreciate your support !

[@sideyardbarbecue3214]

Daddy Dutch BBQ I’m making that basket. I’m to cheap to buy sns. I also want that gabby grill. Got any ideas on a bro style replacement?

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

Hey brother those thighs didn’t look to bad. A little dark but you could really see those brush strokes. I suggest dip them in your sauce once you thin it out! Great video!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Rich's River Smokers West Virginia agreed ! Yeah dipping will be a lot better ! Thanks for the advice Rich! Greatly appreciated! I got a little heavy handed with 5he rub ! Thanks brother! Say hi to Katie for me !

[@RichsRiverSmokersWestVirginia]

Daddy Dutch BBQ And Cooking will do brother

[@CookingwithKirby]

Those darn judges are picky lol.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Yes they are Kirby ! Thanks for your support, I appreciate ya !

[@BottlecapBBQ]

Nice job. Man.... I spent close to 3 hours tonight prepping my chicken. You make me sick how fast you did that one. I need a bigger knife like that!

[@daddydutchbbq]

Chris, I hear ya on the prep time. Normally I prep 16 pieces to get 6 I like ! I have a little practice at it , about 6 years ! Thanks for stopping by! Good luck at your comp!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Those are a pain in the butt!!! You did a good job with it though.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Yes Alton, they can be for sure ! Thanks for stopping!

[@olevetsbbq3118]

HEY KENT , OUTSTANDING INFO VIDEO , REALLY ENJOYED IT . THOSE THIGHS LOOK LIKE MONEY , ALSO LOOKED LIKE YOUR P-N-S WORKED GREAT !!! T.D.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Thanks so much ! These thighs turned out great! I’m glad you enjoyed it and thank you for stopping by!

[@charlessmith2209]

Talks about temping the chicken the entire video. Never once mentions the temp of the chicken. Appreciate the effort though.

[@daddydutchbbq]

I may have forgot to mention 165, thought I did, sorry.
