Spiel Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Last night's dinner of bacon and more bacon. Some of the left over maple bacon wrapped beef (that was maple smoked) with a side of more maple bacon accompanied with a side of red tater, red onion home fries, sunny side up eggs and buttered toast. Looks like bacon again tonight, hate when that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerritt Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Looking for ideas on what to do with a whole chicken fellas...... I have a Maple Leaf Prime chicken that I pulled out of the freezer. I could just simply season it and toss it in the oven I suppose..... Or I could spatchcock it and BBQ it.... Or.....???? Any ideas guys? G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiel Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I'd brine it for 24 hours and throw in on a rotisserie. But I'm guessing you don't a rotisserie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 G, brine it for as long as you can, before cooking. Brine: equal parts salt and sugar, dissolved in water. Drop the bird in it, refrigerate until time to cook. Over night is best. Rinse off the brine, split the bird in two. Cover the bird in your favorite seasoning and put it on the top rack of the BBQ. close lid and let cook for 45-50 minutes on high. Done!

Gerritt Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yeah no rotessorie on the Weber kettle.... I'll get it brining right now, and cook it with indirect heat thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 RE- drunken Chicken. We had a party here at the house a few years ago, I had to feed about 35 people. I put 6 chickens on the BBQ, all beer can chicken. I figured it would be a good time to try different liquids in the cans to see if they made any difference in the taste of the bird. I used; -water -beer -coke - ginger ale -sprite -apple juice Once finished cooking, I tasted a bit from every chicken and guess what.... NO DIFFERENCE!!! The key I have learned to beer can chicken, make sure that what ever liquid you use, is at least warm, not cold like a beer. Cold liquid in the can only slows the cooking process.

misfish Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Or I could spatchcock it and BBQ it.... Give it a good jerk rub and cook away on indirect bud. I get mine from the bulk barn. I did 3 up the last time at the Nip g2g. It got goobled up. Now is the day I wish I had a smoker, but hey, I can make anything work for me.LOL Nice piece of roast, punch some holes and fill with garlic cloves and give a good dry rub. Will put on indirect for 2 hours at 275. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Brian, that looks awesome!!! I get my jerk seasoning at no frills, it's dirt cheap I've done the beer can chicken in the past, and it was good! However I felt it was a waste of beer! And imparted little to no flavour to the bird. Fresh savoury and fresh thyme sprigs, in an empty can with pre boiled (hot) water however was awesome as the aromatics were already being released and intensified and the water further boiled down. I've found however beer chicken just doesn't work on the kettle due to the height of the lid. And I don't enjoy the taste of creosote should the chicken touch the lid. I'll either spatchcock it or split it I'm thinking..... She's brining boys.. 1/3 cup coarse salt and 1/3 cup sugar.

misfish Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Thanks G You could debone the bird,fill with herbs lemon wedges,tie it up or wrap with BACON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Dang........ That does sound like an idea B! Sadly I dont have the knife skills..... Time to YouTube it. The jerk seasoning I get is called cool runnings, comes in a giant plastic bottle. It's good! Edited September 7, 2015 by Gerritt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitoubass2 Posted September 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Anyone else here use mayonnaise rub instead of brining first? That makes a nice moist chicken too Id follow brian here split and rub method... Sounds great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 If you have a bulk barn, you got to try it. It,s kick ass. So many different spices in it. Dont breath in to deep when trying to smell it though. You will sneeze for hours.LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akaShag Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 If time is of the essence, I brush the chicken inside and out with olive oil, seasoned with a bit of garlic.............then into the BBQ in a pan or on the rotisserie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
