- Place all meats back in pot and simmer covered for about 30 minutes or until chicken is tender and pulling from bone.
- Remove all chicken (this is the reason you counted) and pull meat from bone making sure not to get any gristle. Place pulled chicken meat back in pot.

- Cover and let cook for another 30 minutes. Check halfway to stir once and make sure rice is not sticking. Stir once again in six or seven minutes. If trying to stick, turn heat lower. If rice is dry, but not tender, add additional liquid (such as a couple of slugs from the beer you are drinking)
