First chicken cook on the PBC...turned out AMAZING! Thanks for all the tips and tricks on here...it has made my first three cooks outstanding! Here is a pic of my chicken plate:

Beautiful plate and beautiful cook - very nice!

The skin was fantastic! It was crispy and oh so tasty! My 13 year old daughter ate 3 pieces and told me that I am the BBQ king. ;D. Thanks for the kind words!

I didn't have any lump so I used the Kingsford competition charcoal I have. I did crack the lid and cooked it at about 375 for an hour and 15 minutes. The last 10 minutes I let the heat come up to around 400 (just like the PBC expert on here has shown). It worked like a charm! I have a Maverick 733 which helps a lot getting the PBC dialed in to the temps you want. My wife doesn't eat much chicken, but now she insists that I buy more because it was so damn good! She told me last night that she is now officially in love with the PBC. I gotta say that it is one of the best purchases I have ever made...this thing is money!

Nice job! Looks perfect

Great cook - it looks outstanding!

great looking chicken man, well done! where do you live and what temp was it outside? that is awesome that you were able to keep temps using kings blue at higher than 350. when i did my drumsticks last week i hit 406 but steadily dropped to settle in the 350's for the majority of the cook. it was in the 30's outside and i used about 3/4 basket of charcoal. when i put my second batch pbc settled in around 297 ish. im thinking i need to use a full basket of kings or just go to using lump for my chicken cooks.

I live in Oregon and the temps were in the 50s outside. I was using Kingsford COMPETITION charcoal...not the blue...so we are clear. This charcoal burns hotter than the blue which was great for this chicken cook. I can get two 18 pound bags of it for $20 at Costco.

Another chicken in the books! Man, Bigg was not kidding when he said that the PBC makes the best chicken ever...I have dubbed my PBC the "Chicken Slayer". Nothing but juicy goodness here!

Nicely done! Are you dry brining them the day before or just throwing them on there?
-
Great looking chicken, did you use any rub on them or any other preparation, like brining or oil on the skin?

Beautiful chicken..what did you put on it? .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

Nice plate of chicken. So many good looking meals coming out of the PBC's I think I will have to
give this more thought.

I wouldn't wait any longer, you'll kick yourself when you discover what you've been missing by waiting. ;)
