    Spatchcock Chicken

    First time butterflying a chicken Removed the backbone and the cartilage that seperates the breast. Can't remember the name. Rubbed it down wit a little EVOO and seasoned the bird with Adreneline chicken seasoning. Also added a couple pats of butter under the chicken to keep it from drying out...

    Smoked Shrimp and Potatoes

    rbranstner: I find Bad Byrons is a bit on the salty side as well. I've used it on chicken (once) and on a ribeye I grilled last weekend. Once it runs out, I wouldn't buy it again. I plan on adding some brown sugar in the rub when I do the ribs and boston butt tomorrow. I have attempted to...

    Smoked Shrimp and Potatoes

    My first attempt at smoking shrimp was a partial success. I usually grill them and wrap in bacon but since it is lent, had to skip the bacon. I soaked the shrimp in a brine of salt and sugar for 20 minutes then seasoned them with Tony's cajun seasoning. Threw them on the grill at 275 for...

    Spatchcock Chicken

    I want to cook a spatchcock chicken tomorrow, however there are so many posts with different grill temps. I want a chicken that is juicy and tender, so it seems like the slow and low method would not work. I've seen posts that show 240* for 4 hrs and some that show 350 for an hour. Which temp...

    Welcome to the site. There are a few new members from Louisiana. I have tried many rubs, most recently Bad Byrons Butt Rub. BBBR is the best so for. Only thing I wish there were sugar in the rub. I plan on doing a cook this weekend with a boston butt, ribs and chicken and I think I will add...

    First Beer Can Chicken

    labongio, The skin was crispy. I think the EVOO may have played a part in getting the skin crispy. I don't like the rubbery skin when the birds are cooked at low temps. I increased the temps to about 325 during the final 30-45 minutes. This weekend I am planning another cook with chicken...

    First Beer Can Chicken

    Newbie from South Louisiana

    I'm new to the site. I just purchased a Bubba Keg Convection Grill and have smoked chicken and ribs. The KEG is not the typical "smoker" but it does an awesome job retaining heat for long periods of time. The longest I have went on the grill was approx 10 hrs and it maintained a consistent...
