    Yoder 480 vs. Yoder 640

    I ended up getting a GMG-DB........my mentality was two fold.....one...I have a history of getting into things and then getting out of them...so I wanted to make sure that this cooking thing sticks before spending big money. However....the REAL reason I went with the GMG vs the Yoder, is so I...

    Last question...I promise...well..at least for this one.......do you rub just over the skin, or do you try to get between the skin and the chicken as well?

    Perfect. Sorry to say however, you keep bringing up questions now. Brine......I know this is soaking the chicken overnight and can make it juicier and even pink when eating, but is there a specific trick to it? What does one put in their brine traditionally speaking?

    Spatchcock Chicken

    So I see the temp range a lot from everyone.  What is the deciding factor in figuring out if it should be 325 or 350?  Is it weather related?  Grill related?  Something to watch for while thfood is cooking to decide what temp to be at?  (ok...so THOSE may be dumb questions)

    This grill is going to get me fired. I am spending too much time researching meals vs. working..... Ok...so I am going to spatchcock Wednesday now instead of Beer can.  Skin side down though?  I definitely want a crispy skin.  I saw another thread that recommended drying out the skin by leaving...

    Spatchcock Chicken

    Ok....I was searching for "How" to Spatchcock a chicken and didn't find anything.  (Hard to search well and work at the same time), but since this was one of the more recent threads, I thought I would just ask here...... How do you spatchcock a Chicken or Turkey?  And in a GMG-DB, do I still...

    I don't think I want a heavy flavor..just enough to taste a difference between the GMG vs the Charcoal vs the Gas. I have more of a concern for crispy skin.  I love a good crispy skin....on pretty much anything I cook with skin.  Skinless stuff, I still like a good bark to it.  Those two things...

    You all are spot on!! There were sections of the meat that were good. There were sections that were like jerky. Guess I should have had this conversation prior to cooking!! Doing beer can chicken Wednesday. Any suggestions on cooking temps and times for that one?

    Thanks I went with the 180 based on the recipe from GMG's own website.

    Well....first real test....not so good. Ribs were a little on the Dry side. Flavor was good. Just too tough for my liking Did a brown sugar run with a sweet BBQ suace. Kids like sweet better than spivey. Cooked them at 180 for 5 hours, and they never seemed to be done. Raised the temps to...
