I used to love chicken breast when I was younger, but then I realized that dark meat is so much better! Drumsticks are my fave, and I cook most with thighs.
What about you?

I love the bags of frozen homeless, skinless thighs. We make mostly stews or similar so thighs are perfect! Sometimes I will get the whole legs so we have the drumsticks, too.

I'm all about cooking with the thighs- they're cheaper and stay moist in pretty much everything. I find the breasts to be pretty meh generally speaking.

This reminds me of the Cosby Show episode where they're talking about the men going to a strip club and they're eating BBQ chicken, and Elvin doesn't know what piece to ask for because he doesn't want to get into trouble... are you a breast man, or a leg man? thigh?
I like different cuts for different dishes. Usually breast or thigh though. I've come to the conclusion lately though that chicken is my favorite meat!!

I like thighs because they're cheap...
My husband whines when I buy them though, he only likes the breast.

My favorite part is the skin, so I have to say the wings and drumsticks.

I've always liked white meat, which worked out perfectly in my Asian family where everyone fought for dark. DH was the first Asian I met who also likes white.

If is grilled, sautéed, pan fried or roasted I prefer breast, if it is slow-cooked or in stew I prefer thigh

I like chicken breasts but if they're fried I do tend to like the drumsticks too!

Dark meat is the best! Drumstick and Thighs all the way!!! White meat is so BORING.
Hubs also only likes dark meat, so we can never buy a whole chicken, haha.

boneless, skinless breasts! the less contact i have to make with raw chicken while preparing it, the better!

I still like chicken breasts! They are lean and flavorful and moist, if cooked right. You have to cook it right, though!
I don't like all the fat on dark meat. It tastes too greasy to me.

I don't eat chicken but my husband loves it. If you ask him what his favorite part is, he says the whole thing LOL. His favorite thing is to have a whole chicken in front of him and he likes to eat it 'caveman style.' Mostly I make him boring old boneless skinless chicken breasts to be healthy - but I tried @ladyfingers suggested method for cooking them and he said they are amazing (they look beautiful!) http://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-cook-moist-tender-chicken-breasts-every-time-36891

I like chicken thighs, but chicken breasts are good for convenience (though not much else.)
but my absolute #1 favorite part of the chicken? The knob at the base of the tailbone. When you roast a chicken it's SO flavorful and juicy.

I feel like all chicken tastes the same. I really cant tell the difference between white meat or dark meat
