I have a Performer, so always start in the vortex with the gas assist on bottom and TS8000 torch on top … no other starters, and ready very quickly.
I always air dry in the fridge for several hours, or dry brine in fridge overnight.
I always add some cornstarch to whatever seasoning/rub I may use.
(cornstarch is the ingredient in baking powder for the drying/crisping effect, and cheaper to boot)
Almost always just eat dry rubbed off the Weber … still partial to deep frying wings for Buffalo sauced.
