LOWCOUNTRY CHICKEN BOG
This is a cousin of jambalaya or perloo, and it should be fairly simple, with the chicken, sausage and rice as the stars. Any white meat works, and I used pheasant. This is a great one-pot meal for a Sunday supper, and you can make it a weeknight meal if you have leftover chicken and pre-made chicken broth.

Steps:
- To make the broth, you can either cut the birds into serving pieces or keep them whole. Either way, submerge the birds in water and bring it to a simmer. Skim any scum that floats to the top. Add salt to taste, then the remaining broth ingredients. Simmer very gently for 2 hours.
- Remove the chicken or whatever meat you are using, and strip the meat from the bones. Set aside. Strain the broth into a large bowl or pot, through a strainer that has a paper towel set inside it; this strains out debris. Reserve the broth.
- Heat the butter in a heavy, lidded pot that can cook 2 cups of rice in it. Add the onion, cover the pot, and cook, stirring once in a while, until the onions are just turning brown -- about 10 minutes.
- Add the rice, shredded meat and the garlic and stir to combine. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring often. Add the smoked sausage and the broth you just made, or if you are using pre-made broth, add 1 quart now. Stir well, cover the pot and drop the heat to low. Cook gently until the rice is done.
- When the rice is ready, add some broth to make the dish a bit soupy, then stir in the green onions and parsley.

I am not sure of the origin of this recipe. It is a cross between a casserole and a stew: chock-full of chicken, sausage, rice and onion. A really good cold-weather comfort food. When you're feeling 'bogged' down, make Chicken Bog to cheer up! This recipe is what is called 'Low Country cooking.' It is a term used in the coastal regions of South Carolina. Chicken Bog is even served at restaurants in South Carolina along with other local favorites.

KENT'S CHICKEN BOG FOR A CROWD
If you're looking for a crowd-pleasing chicken and rice dinner that can feed an army, your search ends here. Chicken bog, which shares a history with pilau, is a simple South Carolina staple that has stood the test of time. This big-batch chicken bog recipe comes from Kent Huggins, a Carolina native who has perfected his family's technique over decades. What sets Kent's version apart? His chicken bog (which uses a strict 3:1 stock-to-rice ratio) is cooked in the oven. This eliminates the temptation to stir the rice and ensures a perfectly boggy texture.

- Choose the right rice: Long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine, is best for chicken bog.
- Rinse the rice: This will remove the starch and help the rice cook evenly.
- Use a good quality broth: Chicken broth or stock is the base of the chicken bog, so make sure to use a good quality one.
- Brown the chicken: Browning the chicken before adding it to the rice cooker will give it more flavor.
- Add the right amount of liquid: The amount of liquid you add will depend on the type of rice you are using. For long-grain rice, use a ratio of 1 cup of rice to 1 1/2 cups of liquid.
- Season the chicken bog: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Let the chicken bog rest: After the chicken bog is cooked, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
