Back To The Basics BBQ Series: BBQ Chicken Thighs

I started my BBQ journey with a weber kettle grill, and I'd make an assumption that you did too... or you're just getting started. I'm here with my Back To The Basics BBQ Series to run through some content on a kettle grill. Today we cover how to bbq chicken thighs! Come Check it out!

BBQ Chicken Thighs are one of my favorites! Super simple, super cheap, and DELICIOUS! For this recipe we keep it simple. Marinade them in Italian dressing for 2-4 hours. Trim off any loose skin, hangers, and anything that looks like it would get burnt. Season with your favorite rub and get them on the grill in some indirect heat. Today I'm running the SNS Deluxe Kettle Grill at 350F. When we reach about 175F internal temp start to sauce them and quickly give them some direct heat. We are looking for a nice caramelized sauce and 185-190F internal temp!

I loved this. Simple, direct and to the point. I really dislike when other's go off a rant or unnecessary explanation.

Just made these for dinner tonight and they were amazing !! I've been driving my Mrs mad watching YouTube videos trying to raise my bbq game but tonight she tasted these and just said "wow...." so i think we now have approval. Thank you 👍

Not only am I happy to see you posting again but going back to the basics is the best! Keep up with videos man! Let me know if you want to do a cook off, Florida boy versus yankee! Haha seriously though!

Dude, I’m always hungry after watchin’ your videos. You got a natural instinct for flavors. You got a new fan. Keep up the good work.

I suppose it's time to add a kettle to my arsenal!

Love the old school kettle cooks, 👍🍻🍻

[rodawg]

Love the new series… but most of all love the crocs bro LOL!

[Shookmeister]

Barbecued thighs on the kettles are one of my all time favorites. I love the zesty thighs also. However, I've never combined the two. I will on my next thigh cook! Thanks for sharing.

[bobbicatton]

I'll have to try your method. Looks delicious! I like the idea of marinating first, then trimming the hangers off. Makes good sense👍😊

[dawsonmckeown]

Great video … thanks for posting. We have an SnS kettle and love it. Definitely a back to basics experience. We’d be interested to learn how you do light … between cook cleaning.

Loving these series bro. I swear we are on the same path lately. Was using the camp chef wwpro for almost a year and now just went back to kettle grilling. keep up the great content buddy.

I was a kerosene (charcoal lighter fluid) user for about 40 years A few weeks back I watched one of your videos where you used the chimney and Tumbleweeds. So I decided to give it a shot. I'm here to say that the chimney + Tumbleweed method just flat works with my old Weber kettle. A new trick for one old dog. Thanks!

[LakesideTable]

The combination of spices and seasonings in this recipe is pure perfection. It's a culinary adventure that I can't wait to embark on.

[jimmybob]

One of my favorite, fast, simple, delicious chicken thigh recipes.

I love what you said about the chimney. I had an incident with rain and fluid and charcoal in 2006 -- where everything was awful. Bought a chimney and haven't looked back when I need to cook with charcoal.
