This is not a great pic .. but flames are starting to rise as the juices drip....
So I deployed my apple slices trick... this will keep direct flames from burning you chickens but still keep the bottom of the can hot while roasting the rest of the chicken with indirect heat..
You should have a Bio-Therm or Meat Thermometer and a brush to apply the glaze... the chickens are about 30 minutes from done according to my calculator... so I apply glaze to both every 7-10 minutes and close the lid of the grill afterwards.
One glaze is Beer and BBQ sauce the other is lemon lime soda with fresh squeezed oranges some Tabasco and honey...
Letβs repeat this process several time... on the last pic notice the V coming down the Chicken... this is what you want because that means the Beer is steaming and boiling over out of the chicken.
This is where I punctured the thigh bone with a knife while preparing... see how the juices are running out clear? That is also a good sign that the chickens are cooked all the way through...
For cutting a chicken into the traditional 8 pieces I will be using both a knife and kitchen shears... after you wash your shears with soap and water... I use a kitchen spray to keep them oiled...
Now letβs cut this bad boy up.. the there is very little beer left in the can, I push to onion down the bottom and the neck pulled right off a good sign that the Chicken is done but letβs confirm it buy cutting it.
First I cut the wings off
Then the thighs and cut the DrumSticks off the thighs
And then you cut the Breast in half ...and you will be left with a Back ... which has two what are called βOystersβ chunks of meat left on the back.. donβt pass these over they are quite tasty.
There it is the 2 Breasts and the back of the other one...The Back with the two βoystersβ is on the left and the 2 Breasts are on the Right.
The DrumStick ..
And the Thigh I cut it from... itβs cooked all the way through as you can see... if you see ANY Red then it is NOT cooked so Do NOT eat it at this point.. but the solution is simple just throw it back on the grill for a few minutes until all the Red is gone .. 3-5 minutes should do it...
Here is the Lemon Pepper chicken.. I showed one side up and one side down for each piece that way you can see they are done
Same pic.. with the BBQ chicken this time
This is NOT as easy as it may appear to make... I didnβt get it right the first time... and the instructions were Wrong.. The way βThey saidβ it would be done was like in 45 minutes to an hour... I have NEVER had it DONE in less than 1 1/2 hours these took 2 full hours and you have to watch them... this is NOT a set it and forget it recipe.
Cook Low.. and slow, and long and Strong for this to turn out right.... but it is well worth it in the end.. I showed how to cut the chicken but the meat came right off the bone... in fact another good TELL for the chicken being done is that you can pull the wings right off...
Itβs a balance between cooking to slow and leaving it tuff and dry or juicy.. but under cooked...if you can learn to cook this right with timing and heat... then you can cook ANYTHING!!!
With a little Practice...
And a few Tips...
Thanks for Listening...
And there we go Done and Done!
Any Questions?
