Chicken Legs (Parboiled, Broth and Grilled)
===========================================

We have entered a world where chicken legs are the cheapest part of the chicken.
You can buy bulk packs of chicken legs and they are actually a fun part of the
chicken to eat with the little drumstick handles.
I think chicken legs need some attention. This would probably work with leg quarters
as well though those would be knife and forkers in the end.

Some methods I want to try:
 - Easy Grilled Legs
 - Buffalo Legs
 - Baked Coated Chicken

The big problem with making chicken legs is they are often difficult to cook thru to the bone without burning.
You can cook them in a slow or wet method, but they are good if grilled properly.

So for now the solution I'm working with is parboiling the legs. This get me mostly cooked legs that can be
quickly on the grilled, fried or broiled to crisp up the skin and broth that is great for soups or even just
a way to pep up some rice or packaged ramen.
