Hey Everyone!
Chicago weather is finally in the 50's/60's, and you know that means more grillin and chillin. Was in a good mood, so decided to cook up some halved chickens for the co-workers at ACE Hardware Headquarters. We're a tight knit group, and everyone loves BBQ, so why not treat them, right?
OK, so here we go - got 4 - 4lb Purdue chickens halved up, and dusted with Weber's Beer Can Chicken Seasoning, along with Paprika for color:
The staging area in the garage, just built that work bench and it's been very useful:
Split the cook up between an older OTG, and my newly unboxed $75 Performer Gold (recent Home Depot Sale):
Kids were outside playing, and my little boy was helping with the Youkon Golds. Needs to upgrade to charcoal for sure.
About to go on, indirect - 425 to start, used apple and pecan. Brewski tasting delicious:
Loving the color:
I sauced them the last 15 minutes, using some cheap Kraft sauce (not bad), and finally plated:
Got everything setup before the guys came down. I'm definitely stealing the cafeteria's profits today:
Everyone enjoyed the chicken, and as people passed by our table, everyone kept asking where did you get that? LOL - the former chef used a Ranch kettle for some of his meals, but as he went, so did the Kettle. I know cuz I asked if I could buy it.
Thanks for lookin guys! Have a great weekend!
