I'm cooking up a few things for a "Cub Scout Pack Committee Meeting" on Sunday and trying to plan out what I'm cooking where and when.
The first thing I'll be starting (which I've never done before) is a beef shoulder muscle. I figure that will be on my WSM for most of the day Saturday (starting ~7:00 AM).
I'm also making wings. I buy them as full wings, in packs of 30, and trim the tips (for stock-making later on); usually I don't split the flats from the drumettes, but for this, I might. My concern is how many I'll be able to fit on the kettle at one time. I think splitting them will give me a bit more flexibility for arranging them and maybe I can get them all on in concentric rings around the outer edge. I don't have a vortex, but I have an old grill wok I use to keep the coals in the middle of the grate.
So, is 60 separated flats & drummies on one kettle realistic? I suppose I could do multiple batches if needed, but since it's not the only thing I have to do on Saturday, I'd prefer to do 'em all at once.
