We are doing ensalada de pollo ( chicken salad) This is something my mother and most mexican families do during the summer time.

My son Anthony seasoning the whole chicken. He looks determined to do it right!

I used one full chimney of hot coals and it settled at 300-350 during the cook. It was good I wasn't looking for a specific temp. Just wanted to be more than 275 and no more than 350

Here it is after 1 hour. It took about 1 hour 40 min to be completely cooked.

Add the corn and mixed vegetables fresh out of the can. 1/4 cup of mayo and sour cream. 1 tbs of black pepper. Mix together good and let them be happy for an hour

Says it all dude!! Love it!? Want a shirt? Heck ya!
Nice buddy!
 
Nice family cook. I love that pic of your son. That deserves to be out in a frame. Love the chicken salad.
 
You guys are doing it right! To many kids these days spend no time in the kitchen and some couldn't boil water! Cool seeing kids love to help mom & dad. Love the salad by the way!
 
That picture of Anthony in the smoke is "priceless".
Great to see the whole family involved, and that meal looks Super Tasty.

As always, GREAT JOB!!!
 
Thanks for your kind words everyone.... Anthony was excited that the cook he helped in got a great response. Thanks for making his day. :)
