Might be worth the risk.   Some folks guard toilet paper or bottled water like 
their life depends on it, we are sitting on a cache of chicken thighs………….

Seriously, these pellet smokers have been really fun to tinker with.   Trying 
out all kinds of new stuff, some doesn’t turn out so well, but some are pretty 
good.   Did corn on the cob wrapped in bacon with the last batch of meat off 
the smoker.   Good stuff.  Doing my part to reduce the bacon glut.

Well, we are partly to blame.   The chicken thighs work great in pellet 
smokers, because they tend to react well to the low and slow cooking method of 
smokers.   They don’t dry out as fast and the darker meat picks up the smoke 
flavor really well.    We have tried out a bunch of new recipes using chicken 
thighs.   We have a great one using the smoker and Jalapenos and cream cheese, 
wrapped by chicken thighs and yes… bacon.   Great stuff.

I heard a news story that said we have too much bacon and not enough pork 
chops.   Their theory was that folks at home eat less bacon than when they go 
out to eat, but grill more foods like pork chops at home.   Don’t know how true 
that is.

Bacon, Bacon, Bacon… 😊

That got your attention, didn’t it.

Steve seems to be right, chicken thighs are hard to find in the stores.  Why is 
that?  I thought most of the world preferred every other part of the chicken 
including wings.  I see legs, where are the thighs going?  Are people buying 
them now because it’s the cut with the most meat for the money?

Oddly, the store I stopped at today had Halal boneless skinless chicken thighs. 
 I don’t think I’ve ever bought halal meat or even seen it except in specialty 
halal stores.  Is some Muslim family going hungry because I bought their halal 
chicken?

The other thing I noticed was they had a TON of bacon.  I’ve never seen so much 
bacon.  Many brands and types.  Maybe big pork processors in various states are 
closing down due to Covid, but that doesn’t seem to be offsetting the bacon 
that isn’t being sold to restaurants, which is apparently where most bacon is 
normally consumed.

Bacon, bacon, bacon.
