Cornell Chicken - The Virtual Weber Bullet

Cornell chicken was made famous at the New York State Fair in 1949. This version from Cook's Country magazine is smoke-grilled over high heat in the Weber Smokey Mountain Cooker Smoker.

Adding the egg is interesting, otherwise it's more or less marinade with salad dressing then grill

Thanks - Very detailed directions. The only part I don't really like is multiple bastings as excess marinade can really mess up your grill.

I tried it once. Didn't really wow me over that time but that could of been my fault.
I need to try it again so thanks for the bump.

I tried it once but I prefer Roadhouse Chicken (which also messes up your grill - but it's worth it to me).

If I do it again, think I’ll setup the WSM for a high heat cook and baste. I may be able to get some tin foil under the charcoal grate.

Anyone tried this on a rotisserie?
Or take a guess at how it would turn out?

I will say go for it.

If you have Santa Maria grill or attachment, no need for the recipe....

Ok - so I’m going to try spinning 2 whole Cornell chickens on the vieluxe

Any recommendations on setup?

I was thinking smoker burner with oak chunks on low (far left) - far right main burner on low - rotisserie IR on low

I guess it would be most similar to a Summit S470 as far as layout

You might try to copy and paste this in the gas grill section.
My rotiss is for charcoal so I'm no help.

There was a couple of really good threads about spinning chicken.

First two on this search I think

I don't get the recipe. The egg+oil almost looks like a mayonnaise. I imagine whisking a whole egg with oil can result in a thin emulsion. Is that the idea?

And secondly, holy moly that's a lot of oil. Does the chicken actually benefit from it? I barely put any oil on my BBQ chicken. And my chicken is a solid meh...

Thanks. I'm going to try this in a day or so! I like simple recipe.
