Title: Sunday evening chicken
Post by: tekn50 on August 25, 2014, 06:18:15 AM

Made some of my best chicken yet yesterday.  I only have on pic of it, forgot to get more.  I rubbed the outside with olive oil, then sprinkled with salt.  I then coated it with Weber Garlic and Herb.  On the skin and some under it, hung with two ears of corn.  I used about 6lbs of charcoal, mounded in the middle.  The barrel started at 320 then cooled to 275 after 15 minutes.  The last 10min of the cook, I cracked the lid.  To get the temp up around 325, once the chicken hit 165.  I pulled the lid off for 3 or 4 mins.  That got the skin nice and crispy.  Total cook time was about 1hr 45min.   It was one delicious and juicy chicken.
