Default Can you cook BONE-IN chicken thighs in a George Foreman grill?

I've never tried it, but you probably could as long as they were
fairly uniformly thick. You could try it, and test with a meat
thermometer to make sure they get done all over.

The Foreman Grill cookbook, of course -- because they want to sell a
lot of units -- makes a big honking deal about taking the fat out of
everything. So every recipe calls for boneless, skinless chicken
breasts, but those would often be as thick as a bone-in thigh.

Speaking of which -- why is it that so many recipes claiming to be
low-fat insist on *boneless* chicken? Do they think taking the bone
out somehow makes them less fatty? I guess that'd make as much sense
as most of the low-fat dogma.
