Title: PBC Chicken - How to get crispy skin?
Post by: chriswalters on January 20, 2017, 09:22:44 AM
Hey all!  Making my second run of PBC chicken later today and looking for any tips/tricks to get the skin a little more crispy.  The chicken came out unbelievably juicy and delicious, just looking for a little more crisp on the skin.  Is anyone transferring to the grill grate afterwards or anything like that?  Thanks in advance!

Hello go to page 11 under pit barrel and look for GOT MY NEW TOY started by 1bigg-er.
There is 25 pages to read there and I think you will find your answer.
I tried to copy paste but can't figure it out.

The skin texture is a function of moisture in the skin....so  if you prep your chicken 1 day ahead and allow it to sit in the fridge open to the air...i.e. uncovered....or 1 or 2 days. you will find the chicken will be completely moist but the skin will be much drier and more edible.

Corrected the horrible spelling in the above post - that rendered it useless.... ;D
