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 let’s 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 let’s 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 “Oysters” chunks of meat left on the back.. don’t 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 “oysters” is on the left and the 2 Breasts are on the Right.

The DrumStick ..

And the Thigh I cut it from... it’s 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 didn’t get it right the first time... and the instructions were Wrong.. The way “They said” 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...

It’s 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!
