I like to take mine a bit further. Yes, 165 is safe, but as far as being done, I think quarters have a better texture around 180.

Around 180


Yup. Leg quarters are no fun to eat at 165. They are good to debone for other uses but that skin just isn’t ready to give up the meat yet. They are pretty though :)

Well that may be why my 11 year old said he had some advice. He said the skin was a little chewy lol. Will go to 180 next time. Thanks!
