I had an old HS buddy over last night for dinner, traveled from Ohio to Virginia so I put a little effort in to it. First I picked a six pounder from the local store, and rubbed it down with salt, garlic powder, Slap Ya Mama and rosemary. Bagged it and placed it in the fridge for 24 hours...
After a day in the bag, I loaded her up on the "Oklahoma Joe" and used mostly oak wood, a little maple, kept the temp around 225 to 250 and took the bird up to 175* internal
After about four hours, the bird had reached 175, then I foiled it to rest.
Add a little bit of home made buttermilk biscuits, green been casserole and a blackberry cobbler....
Grilled corn on the cob
End results....
