Steps:
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place chicken, skin side up, on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne. Cook until skin is golden and crisp and chicken is cooked through, 20 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons vinegar, and half the blue cheese. Add celery and romaine, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Sprinkle salad with remaining blue cheese.
- In a small pot, melt butter with 3/4 teaspoon cayenne over medium-low. Whisk in 3 tablespoons vinegar and remove from heat; season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, toss chicken with butter mixture to coat. Divide chicken among 4 plates, drizzle with any extra butter mixture, and serve with salad.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill for indirect cooking over medium-high-heat (350 to 400 degrees F).
- Combine the buttermilk, blue cheese, vinegar and Worcestershire in a medium bowl; add the carrots and celery and toss thoroughly. Allow to sit at room temperature while you cook the chicken.
- Combine the hot sauce and butter in a small saucepan and bring to a boil; cook until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, grill the chicken, meaty-side up, and cook until the underside is well-marked and readily releases from the surface, about 15 minutes. Turn and cook until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat (not touching bone) registers 165 degrees F, about 15 more minutes. Brush liberally with the sauce, then turn the chicken and brush the tops with more sauce. Grill 1 more minute. Serve with the slaw.

Turn the oven to the highest temperature and add the remaining sauce. Cook for 5 mins.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken thighs: Look for bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure the chicken thighs are evenly coated in the buffalo sauce: This will help them cook evenly and develop a nice crispy skin.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken thighs will not cook evenly and may steam instead of fry.
- Cook the chicken thighs over medium heat: This will help them cook through without burning.
- Serve the chicken thighs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce: Buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, or blue cheese dressing are all great options.
Conclusion:
Buffalo chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for game day parties, potlucks, or casual weeknight dinners. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
