Agree, Sous Vide Breast are absolutely delicious. I usually do 2 boneless skinless breast per vac bag with a couple of pats of butter and a simple SPOG seasoning, 145 degrees for 2 hours, no searing necessary.

Also the poll is faulty as it does not include chicken guts, a fight ensued each chicken dinner growing up at home.

You can get a 20lb bag of frozen wings for about $20 at Costco. They come already separated too.

When I cook whole chickens then break them down into pieces, I always save the oysters for myself. It's my reward for being the one to cook then cut the chicken

I'm the same. Chicken or turkey, the oyster and that piece of muscle that goes back from the rib cage is mine right off the carving board. Also, that little sliver that lies along either side of the spine.

I know it's not cool, but I actually prefer chicken breast.

I never buy frozen separated wings. always whole and fresh. the quality is worlds apart

Chicken Fried Steak!

I second chicken skin as my favorite part. Much better than pork skin. For fried chicken, it’s thighs. For grilled chicken, it’s the wingette portion of the wing.

I will eat the breast when it is fried chicken. Besides that, I have eaten too much dry chicken breast meat.

brethren groundhog66 (Tim) had a post on his disdain for what he called "party wings" those bags of separated and frozen pigeon wings. even had a stacking method for wings that works well.

Tim was also famous, or rather infam, for starting the "brisket unappreciation thread" this one pre dates the grapplers by several years

as for polls your making me think I need to come out of retirement. I used to be the poll ninja. i was damn good at it too, just check my past threads of you want. I had whole series of them.

maybe its time for champ to come out of retirement

Salt pepper garlic powder and herbs de Provence, 140 for 2 hours, no searing necessary (for skinless).
