What are some good recipe ideas for the 10lb bag of chicken quarters i have defrosting.... i was thinking of boiling and making a stock then doing something with the meat or debone it.
Every now and again, Save a Lot sells 10lb bags of frozen leg quarters for $2.90. That's 29¢ per pound. I don't even care if its weight has been doubled with saline (very unlikely), that's still 58¢/lb.
Anyway, if I'm not smoking them, they typically will go into adobo, cacciatora or peanut curry.
Otherwise, I use them, whole, to make stock, carefully pulling the meat from the bone to make sure I don't take that little spiky bone from the drumstick nor any cartilage, then cook the pulled chicken with a little stock powder and barbecue sauce for pulled chicken.
Once cooled, I pull the solidified chicken grease from the stock and cook it over low heat to remove all moisture before putting it into a separate container. I also render the skins and fat of extra grease. Chicken grease is good eating.
If I'm feeling particularly thrify, I separate thighs from drums and remove the skin, bone and cartilage from the thigh portions, using the bones and cartilage plus the drums to make stock but refreezing (gasp!) the boneless/skinless thigh meat to be used in future cookery.

Basically my exact thoughts... I'm interested in what i can do with boiled chicken or deboned chicken quarters, skins, stock recipes.

defrost it, take a reasonable amount you can eat and then put it back in the freezer.
roast chicken quarters. then use the left overs to make chicken salad

Sounds like a lot of work, I'd never do all that
