... he thinks he can cook 50 chicken halves.
Split chicken breasts were EIGHTY cents a pound on Friday, so I grabbed a cart and stocked up.
(57 pounds worth)
Got home and piled them into the freezer. Pulled about 35 or so pounds out last night to start thawing.
And here we go..
I skinned about 2/3rds of them, and left the skin on the rest. Everybody got painted with Sriracha, and the top rack got a heavy dusting of Head Country. The bottom will just get smoke, and whatever drips off of the top layer.
The Traeger wanted to play, so we loaded him as well. Those got some basic Williams BBQ rub.
Both pits are running at 250°, so we'll check back in about 2.5 hours.

Getting some color now..
I'll start probing the Traeger batch in about 30 minutes.

And of course they all got done at once... Cue the pan brigade.
Stacked in my Wannabe Cambro.
And my SamsBro.
I'll pull the breasts off of the bones this evening, and vacbag most of them for the freezer.
