Default Speed thaw chicken quarters?

What is the best way to do it? Cold water? Would you even advise doing it?

Cold water in the sink, do it all the time. No problems check frequently

The cold water in the sink, run a trickle of water into the bowl, that works great. The other thing if you have a cast iron skillet, and just a few quarters, place them on the cast iron, it will draw cold from the chicken.

I always thaw meats in a bucket of cold water in the bath tub. Change it out every hour or so.

I always do cold water in a bowl and then have a trickle of water going into it. It defrosts pretty quickly.

Ya already got it in a pot of water. May as well just boil it up and put some sauce on it. Thats how Bob would probably do it anyways.
