Favorite easy recipe

[Jwaite]

I'm just curious what everyone's favorite/easy way to cook chicken? Mine is to wrap boneless chicken breast with bacon and smoke until internal temp reaches 170 Fahrenheit

What is a vortex?

What is a vortex?

It's basically a cone shaped piece of steel that directs the heat from the charcoal to the center of the kettle lid and down the sides. It enables you to create a very high concentrated indirect heat.

Here's a pic. The Vortex is in the middle of my kettle.

My favorite is bone in chicken breasts rubbed with Morton's Nature Seasons. I crank up the Masterbuilt 560 to 700 degrees and grill the breasts with briquets/cherry chunks until the skin on both sides is nice and crispy. Then I'll adjust the temp down to 400 and grill to an internal temp of 160. I'll sauce them afterwards. I never knew chicken skin could taste so good!

Thanks for explaining the vortex. It's like indirect grilling

Cornell chicken is my favorite on the grill.

My favorite is dry rubbed wings smoked low and slow at 250 until 160ish IT. Into bags and straight into an ice bath until cold. Then deep fried at 375 for 3-4 minutes to make them nice and crispy. I usually smoke them a day or three in advance.
My favorite easy way for chicken is boneless thighs on the Weber kettle with indirect high heat. SPG and hit them with whatever sauce.
Another favorite easy but not fast way is to sous vide boneless breasts with whatever seasonings at 140 for 2 hours. Pat dry and onto the already ripping hot gasser just long enough to brown both sides. A hot cast iron pan works very well for this but I'm lazy and don't like cleaning up all the spattered oil.

Lately, because of my diet, it’s boneless, skinless breasts cut in strips and soaked in Buchan’s for a couple overnights. I skewer and grill them on super hot coals.

Here's mine. It has been way to long since I've made them.

Smoked bacon wrapped chicken breasts.

Found this interesting recipe yesterday. And since we already had a value pack of chicken in the fridge to make chicken Devan for dinner. And freeze the rest of the meat. I decided to give this a shot. This morning I trimmed 4 pieces of chicken breast: Put them in a brine with kosher salt and...

Cornell chicken is my favorite on the grill.

I second the Cornell chicken. I don't usually marinate. No prep work. Just throw it on the grill, mop, flip and repeat.

The prep is not technically easy.... but lollipop drumsticks are easy on the pocketbook, easy to cook, and easy to eat.
