Chicken Halves and Tri-Tip on the Pit Barrel Cooker
« Reply #-1 on: November 05, 2012, 02:53:28 PM »
Went with a whole chicken and tri-tip this weekend.  Cut the bird down to two halves, which went for a total of 2 hours and 20 minutes per Pit Barrel Cooker Company instructions.  Tri Tip was on for 45 minutes.   Awesome results again with the PBC 8)

I just ordered my PBC (Thanks Smoke!) Amber was great, answered all of my questions - even knew who I was from the forum! I am looking forward to sneaking my new cooker onto the deck and creating some great meals. I will be posting my cooks and pics as soon as I can.

Ken - I would normally agree with you... but this year I have decided to be "tough". I am cooking all year on the deck - I bought a new shovel just to get to my cookers... lol... Stay tuned for "Cooking on the Deck From MN"... :)

Cheers,

David
