I wish I could have had the money to buy this pots and pan

[@iknowthatsright9865]

Do you still use the smoke and vine flavored olive oils?

[@howarddepass3269]

Hi @SmokinandGrillinwithAB. Big fan. Trying to replicate this recipe. About how long did you cook the chicken thighs? And did you leave the lid on the whole time? In the video you mentioned that cooking with a lid on helps it stay juicy. Thanks!

[@PrettyIntelligent]

Mr. AB isn't right for premiering these and having me sit through church dreaming about about these meals! 🤣

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

🙏😀Enjoy church for you and me :)

[@tinasims4637]

Right! Same here ❤️

[@tinasims4637]

God will have Mercy ❤️

[@jozeluiz5381]

Maybe the lord is punishing you for watching these premiers during church @Missjones

[@frederickowens2376]

He knew what he was doing. Mind all distracted from worship service thinking about some Cajun Butter Thighs.

[@krystynnhowell7238]

Whattttt this man has over 2 million subscribers?! I was a first time subscriber and I’m so thrilled to see that he is thriving on KZbin now! Well deserved and still great recipes!!!

[@Islandswirl]

😅😂😂😂 was wondering why it looks like a chicken missing😂

[@musicman195959]

Adding a bed of rice is what I was thinking too. That chicken looks so delicious. Using the garlic press makes AB's entire day. ✌️

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

It does! 🙌

[@mewho8714]

This was a hit! My husband and son raved about it and said that I didn't make enough. They had two thighs each but said they could eat four of them. Definitely a keeper!

[@countryboy8643]

Hey I was wondering how long did you cook the thighs for?

[@orlandovelez5412]

AB: It would have been good to know the TIME the Chicken Thighs need to be cooked - and the HEAT (Medium/High/Low).

[@idkdontask87]

Lol i call you uncle AB... Thank you i have been rocking with you for 3 years and i must say if it wasn't for you, I probably be sitting here crying lol, I would be so lost on how to cook for my family. You never disappoint the table. Thank you sooo much for being you❤️

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

Glad these dishes help fam! I enjoy them 🔥🔥

[@michaelbosman1752]

Love your videos, you explain everything so well and make the instructions easy to follow. I've made several dishes already and everything has been really good

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

You gotta try this one right here 🔥

[@Jami_Denise]

Got this alert while ordering my groceries…adding chicken thighs to the cart! Almost a 2mil!! 🙌🏾 Congratulations Uncle AB!

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

Thank you Jami :) I appreciate the love :)

[@AmiltonLBaptista]

Bruh! You definitely ate a piece of chicken and edited it out before the video was done. You started off with 6 and at the end there was only 5 😂 I would’ve done the same tbh 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@deliciousbydana5095]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@makeaimpactwithfani]

I noticed that too I’m waiting for him to add the last piece back in 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@TyrillCelestine]

🤣

[@rickeyweaver6298]

That's the chef tax!

[@bparkpark1764]

My Family didn't like chicken thighs until I fixed it my own way, they could not imagine thighs were so moist and tasty. But now I'm about to fix this Cajun style and I know their going to be blown away thx again AB

[@EvilGOvertime]

Ab never misses!! Such a fire dish, my wife and kids loved it

[@burghbrat3319]

That's the same dry rub mix I use when I make ribs, so I KNOW this is gonna be good! Tip for anyone who hates trimming the fat from chicken thighs (me too), use a pair of kitchen scissors designated for raw meat only. Quick and easy. I'm always looking for ways to use chicken thighs, so thanks AB!

[@mikechoate6741]

This was the easiest to prepare and most delicious chicken thighs my family and I have ever enjoyed in our home. It was GOOD. We love your channel.

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

Glad you enjoyed! 🔥🔥🔥

[@MXSTHATEDTREYFXE]

I been supporting this page for a while now. You must admit this guy is an amazing chef keep it up maan we appreciate your videos

[@rdbrnr86gt]

I've got a pack of thighs in the freezer. I know now how I'm cooking them! Thanks for this, it looks amazing!

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

Enjoy 🔥

[@jamesdavis1201]

Me too!! Can't wait!! Thanks AB.

[@ryanbrantley6202]

Thank God for your channel I been watching you since 2020 whenever I first moved out my moms house I had no idea how to cook after watching you. I have gotten soo creative and I have my own little style of cooking. I got so good at it every Thanksgiving and Christmas I make plates for the homeless shelter whenever they see me out they ask when am I cooking again haha! Again thanks my brother.

[@platinumdiva75]

Yep, I'm ordering boneless, skinless thighs today so I can try this recipe this week. None of your recipes have disappointed my family and friends, yet! You are great at what you do AB! I hope to see you on Food Network or one of those channels one day because you deserve it and more people need to know you! 🤩🤩🤩

[@mflournoy2971]

I second that emotion!

[@jamiegearhart1145]

Right yum yum Biden family cant even understand. He called what climbing up his legs. Lol. Get the shot you will not get it. Just those that don't. Lol Both have had it twice. With all boosters. Wake up people. The biggest scam in the world is in front of you. Think why is the other country's letting space x do a world chain of so called satellite. Open your eyes wake up. INJ

[@velvetrose7729]

It's cheaper to buy thighs and debone them yourself, it's not hard at all. Step 1. Wash your chicken. I KNOW people say don't wash chicken but I worked at a chicken processing facility.....Wash your chicken!!! Step 2. Pull the skin from one side, then take your KITCHEN Scissors and cut off the skin and that line of fat. Turn your thigh over, bone side up. Take your KITCHEN Scissors and cut up along the side and close to the bone. Then cut under the bone. The bone should now be completely removed. Then cut along the top of the thigh to cut off that piece of gristle and you're Done! Step 3. Wash your hands including under your fingernail and Clean All surfaces. With a bit of practice, you can get this done in 3-4 cuts. I buy bone in thighs in bulk and debone them myself.....Saves me Alot of money!

[@cvz8849]

You dont waste time, you just get into cooking! Thanks so much, great presentation

[@jeffwelch7196]

I tried making this tonight with some egg noodles, and it was a big hit. Gooood!! Those drippings poured over those garlic butter egg noodles was a hit, as well. Good stuff!

[@N.Z99.]

I made these last night and they were absolutely delightful. My son is a very picky eater and he went back for seconds. Thanks for another simple amazing recipe!!

[@yolondaprice553]

Another 🔥recipe, made it for dinner tonight and my husband loved it!😋Thanks

[@vaneciasmithson7977]

Best cooking channel on YT hands down. Always creative and versatile! Keep up the good work AB 🎉

[@johncolondres9179]

These right here! They came out banging!! The aromatics were 🔥! My dogs were all salivating!

[@TYRONESAN]

Good Sunday afternoon AB… I just made your Meatloaf recipe, it was delicious! Excellent! Best Meatloaf ever 🔥🔥🔥

[@taniabrunson73]

Thanks for todays dinner idea. This works while getting running errands and hair appointments before 1st day of school!!

[@christinacurry7268]

What an exciting recipe to try! Chicken thighs are are overlooked but they are truly flavorful and tasty when cooked right! Keep em coming AB! You rock!!

[@janetjasven9808]

Dear AB! I made this dish!!! I followed your directions with 2 small changes… I only had smoked paprika, and I had a small piece of onion left over and I threw that in the pan at the same time as the garlic! I made steamed rice and had a big scoop of my homemade tzatziki sauce! The combination was off the hook! I even had seconds! And I never eat seconds! I’m looking forward to left overs tomorrow as I know the flavors will meld together over night! Thank you so much for sharing!!! My next recipe of yours I’m going to make will be the green beans!!!!! ☺️🥰😋🤤

[@janetjasven9808]

Perfect! I just took chicken thighs out of the freezer today, and was wondering how to prepare it! I know how I’m doing it now, and I ordered and received your mix!!! I also made tzatziki sauce which will pair well with rice and with this chicken… ☺️😋🤤🥰

[@Wetrockstah2116]

Man I love your channel man, you cook with passion, and that is something I've learned over the years is to pay attention to how someone cooks their food. Tells alot about them. Love your channel AB, I go to your videos all the time to try out new things to cook for my family.

[@darlenerogers4902]

This is fire!!! I'm always looking for skinless/boneless chicken recipes. This one definitely going in the rotation, Thanks AB

[@wycollins1209]

This recipe was Amazing! I added some green, and red bell peppers along with some onions. My husband LOVED it. I served mines Iverson some Jasmine rice. Mmm mmm good

[@intoxologist1]

Came across this video recipe tonight and decided to give it a try. I had to improvise with blackened seasoning as that is what I had on hand. Family loved it and will be making it again! Thank you.

[@lcjones4682]

Tried this recipe tonight. And the chicken was delicious…tender and full of flavor. A quick easy meal. I paired with roasted veggies.

[@monacannon6644]

This recipe is a fam favorite. Making this again tonight. Gone be some good eaten.😊

Made this last night. Delicious!!! I love that your recipes are so simple, so quick, so easy, and so darn good! You break everything down and even provide links for ingredients. You are the man!!!

[@countryboy8643]

Hey , how long and what heat did you cook the thighs on if you don't mine me asking?

[@piglo318]

Hey man when I need cooking tips and recipes I come to your videos, since 2017. God bless you keep striving and keep eating good!

[@yannascotto8597]

New to your channel here and today, I stumbled upon your video with chicken thighs. You made it look so good, I had to try it myself. I don’t have butter and Creole Kick, but I improvised. I used Ghee instead of butter and some spices instead of Creole Kick. The result turned out amazing! It tasted so good, I can’t stopped myself from tasting it. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. My husband will love it!

[@jefferyroberts9093]

My wife made this tonight. So tender and delicious. 🔥 thanks AB

[@omruuu21]

Trust AB to drop quality meals for men cooking they own meals. Bless x

[@LaTonyaHiggins]

This was a REAL HIT for me, I am making another batch for some friends of mine dinner today…Thank You!!

[@cherylmarshall6874]

❤❤This chicken was fantastic !! Easy to follow and so delicious.🔥🔥 Thanks again for sharing

[@pamorpamelaa5821]

I like how he's forthcoming about what's done off camera and what's for video purposes. I know it takes nothing from the recipe or makes a big difference to the meal; I just like this fact because it let's us know who tries his reipies.....that.....hey, don't sweat the small things, it won't matter in the end....his recipes will still be.just as good when we cook them..

[@cookingwthechampllc3885]

[@monie2514]

Much Detroit love to you always A.B👌🏼🥃📽️📺 thank you for making some beautiful dishes I hope that you will make a mint Oreo cream cheese cake.🥰🎂💎🥰🙋🏻‍♀️🦄 I've been asking this for the last 3 years and you haven't done it. I've cooked this very dish before but never what Cajun spice I think I'll try that and chipotle it's a very fun with lots of mushrooms shallots red bell peppers yellow bell peppers and purple bell peppers. I would love to see you some purple bell peppers it's time to do some different colors while the fall is coming in. I would love for you to make some lamb ribs, lamb stew. Jamaican style curry goat and some saffron rice 👀💯‼️🍷🥃👌🏼📽️📺. I think next weekend I'll make some. Thank you for giving wonderful cooking ideas and taking the mystery out of cooking. I'm wishing you and your gorgeous wife and family a beautiful safe new week take care 🥰🙋🏻‍♀️👌🏼📽️📺💯‼️🎉🎊🐯

[@kathleenhannigan2487]

Love your cooking and recipes and presentation. There is not much I have not cooked that we want to eat by now in my 60's, but I do like to know of just a bit of a different way to season something like this chicken fry you are doing today. I get stuck in a rut once in awhile of things we like. It is always nice for a change of pace to explore other options. Love the idea of adding brown sugar. Will be doing that next time! Thanks. Cheers.

[@TheWolfCook]

You know I love my Some Chicken Thighs AB. Most favorable part of the Chicken 😋

[@shacrayt3993]

Love the videos but why do you never tell the exact time to cook the food for? I actually want to make this, proper directions would be nice not just knowing the internal temp it should be at.

[@mamba24kc]

Damn AB u did it again.... everything u do is fire bro!!!!!

God is great. Happy Sunday everybody. Was thinking about grilling, but I'll pan sear instead.
