I have made this recipe many, many times with success EVERY time. My family LOVES this chicken bog. I follow the recipe to a tee, with the exception that I add some chicken broth base to my stock, as we like a little more chicken flavor to our bog. Thanks Paula for a recipe that has become a staple in our family and one that many people request.

Amazingly tasty and easy dish to make and will, for sure, fill the bellies of all who partake in chowing down.
I pretty much followed the directions exactly other then leaving out the bay leaves. Just not a fan of bay leaves. I would next time add some more onion and leave them in a rougher chop.
It's my first time tasting chicken bog so I have no idea how it is suppose to taste but let me tell ya, this was so delicious. You might think it's going to be bland but the Cayenne really helps to give it that nice subtle heat.

I am born and raised in SC and this was the best chicken bog I have ever made. My boyfriend and I both loved it. I can't wait to make this for my next potluck. The only suggestion that I have is, that if you use leg quarters instead of quartering a chicken, like I did, use half the butter, because the dark meat has a lot of grease in it already. EXCELLENT Recipe!!!
