[@bobbicatton]

I love the butter bath👍

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Makes for some SUPER juicy and rich thighs!

[@johncox5297]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the great advice. I see you have a Shandy and a Lite. Get yourself some Yuengling and thank me later.😁

[@iownyounoob]

Nice job, well done😊

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Thank you! 😃

[@jeffro5935]

Awesome video the chicken thighs look great. I will be doing that thanks.

[@noral101]

Nice job! Does the apex produce any smoke or smoke flavor looks pretty clean burning compared to the master built next to it.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Definitely cleaner…. But that’s pellets in general

[@alfredbernard26]

That looks delicious. Now I have a new way to smoke some chicken thighs.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Oh yeah! Definitely worth a try!

[@CrossCutCreations]

Dang that chicken looks awesome!

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Oh man…. Freaking delicious!

[@daddydutchbbq]

That is pretty similar to my chicken process. Good looking yard bird Andrew !

Yeah I grew up in Akron. Live about 15min north/northeast of there now

[@lukevandenburg3280]

Hey, I've ben looking into getting the Apex 36. as on this video you've been cooking on it a few months now.. Do you still recommend it? I've also been looking at the napoleon prestige or the blaze LTE. As far as straight grilling does the Apex compete with either of those to grills?

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Those both appear to be quality grills, but they don't have the pellet grill feature like the Apex. I personally think that the Apex is a great grill, especially for someone who wants the total package: gas grill, griddle, and pellet grill.

[@sjeagles609]

I found out if you season the bottom of the tray before putting the chicken in easier to season them

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

That’s a great idea!

[@jimmycamarena6979]

Does the apex throw enough smoke to the stuff you put in because on your video It doesn't smoke

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

It smokes. It’s right there with the other camp chef pellet grills.

[@markh.9762]

Is the butter bath a better flavor then just brining the chicken in salt and brown sugar water for 24hrs? I feel like the checken would get more smoke and be crisper if not cooked in a pan and covered for 90% of the cook

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

The butter is to keep them super tender and juicy. These are more in line with competition chicken thighs than what most people would cook in their backyards

[@scottythomas7086]

Could add worcestershire to the butter.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Not a bad idea!

[@scottythomas7086]

@@AndersonsSmokeShow That little trick was handed down to my dad from his dad a long time ago. Melt the butter and mix it with worcestershire. I need to pick that up again. Don't forget to douse it with some Tony's. Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!!

[@wigglemans]

How’s the skin is it crispy?

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Not crispy. Not chewy

[@mikejanson1939]

It wasn’t bite through skin. It came off when biting it but u edited that out. Still looks good though.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

I actually didn’t edit that out. When I edit I try to cut as much fluff and dead air out of the video for retention purposes. It just so happened that I fixed the skin while I stumbled through some words which ended up getting edited out. I knew someone was going to call me out though 🤣

[@danielt6689]

How much smoke do you get in competition thighs?

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Depends on the smoker. Doing them on my drum smoker produces some nice results!

[@knarfster]

At, 8:09 that wasn't a clean bite, the thigh you hold up and say is pretty much a clean bite isn't even the same thigh or you smoothed the skin out before the edit at 8:17. Either way the recipe was very tasty.

[@29madmangaud29]

Okay man, but ? > What's with the "Masterbuilt" > that's smoking away in the backround? Ahhahahahahahha, come on man.............?

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Last weeks video was smoking in there lol

[@shepardsmith3235]

This is nice but health should also be a consideration. Drowning the thighs in butter and then saturating them in sauce just adds ridiculous amounts of calories. The trick it to retain the juices by rubbing, add a lot of flavor though smoking and add a little more flavor through a very little basting of butter and or sauce and then enjoy. I really like the guys who do the videos but have you noticed how many of them are morbidly obese???? Like the see more of these video reflecting what I am talking about and I love chicken thighs. Just make them healthier.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

These are “competition style” which is all about the one bite. I don’t make them this way for my standard meals

[@kevinseymour7796]

Doing it this way is the skin bite thru or crispy?
