Finally got a chance to cook outside!
« Reply #-1 on: November 07, 2013, 03:01:43 PM »
I finally got some time to cook on the drum again.
This time I did chicken. The temps outside was in the high 40's and I had no problems getting to temp and holding it there.
I peeled back the skin and seasoned under and over the skin.



I fired up 10 coals with the torch and let those turn grey before I put them in the center of a full basket.
I cooked these at 350 until done with the chicken skin side up. Once done I flipped the chicken over for 5 minutes or so to crisp up the skin.



Done!


MMMMmmmm juicy!


And plated..the wife said it was my best chicken to date that I've cooked on the drum!

Gawd, I hope you aren't one of those people that throws the skin away.  That would be a major sin right there.  That bird is crazy beautiful.
