OFallon Mo.
I have several cooks I've done , but never posted . If things are busy , I'll save them for another time so it doesn't clutter things up .
Did this on the SmokeFire back when I first got it .
Whole chicken in Pop's brine overnight .
Black pepper only on the skin .

Roasted chicken skin should be rendered and melt in your mouth tender .
I look for that split in the skin .

This thing was full of juice and flavor .

Plated up with some rice and the sides . Pineapple got a brown sugar / teriyaki glaze .
Wings and some breast hunks .

Could also debone after cooking , chop up the chicken and everything else , and mix it with the rice .
That looks and sounds delicious!!
Thanks !

Thank you Ray .

I'm not even sure what brand it was now ., or if I mixed something in with it . Looks like it had sesame seeds in it .

You know what , after thinking just now , that was a sauce that Bear used to use from Kelchner's . Just before he passed , John sent me a variety box of his favorites . Like said above , older cook . Miss that guy .

NICE. Please tell me you did the orange extract thing in Pops for this. Man ran teriyaki a few times and have not been happy with it. Something missing.

Something to look at and then sink some teeth into!!
Thanks Jeff . Appreciate the comment .
Bird looks great, but that whole plate is callin my name.
Thanks bud . Grilled pineapple is awesome . Really ties that all together .

Thanks Keith . Yup . Me too . I have a dozen each of the rubs and sauces .
Good stuff .
 
Outstanding. I've done that over the years...not the bird...the cooks, then not post them for some time!

What temp do you run the birds to get that skin right? Sadly the MES30 only goes to 275 so crackly skin would only happen if I put a torch to it!

Thanks . ,, Nope . This was way before I started doing that , but would be perfect for this .
Next time for sure . I like the orange more than the lemon .
Need to put some thought into it . Maybe some pineapple extract .
Man ran teriyaki a few times and have not been happy with it. Something missing.
Lol . You don't say . The stuff I used was a mix of pineapple , maybe some ginger . It's good .
Kelchner's local around you ?
Looks goood!
Thanks bud .
That’s a nice looking plate of grub!!! Perfect comfort food!
Yup . Good flavors . Thanks .

I do most of mine whole . From there I either break them down , or split in 2 .
Thanks for lookin .
Outstanding.
Thank you .

That skin is rendered down and melt in your mouth . I run around 325 - 350 . Completely tender , but not " crispy " .
That looks fantastic Rich!!
Thanks Charles . Appreciate that .
