Hi all, we finally had a free Saturday with nice weather so here is my cook. Thank you for the members who posted instructions for this. Thanks to the advice of our members I was able to do this cook.Let me tell you...this was the best chicken I've ever made that did not need barbecue sauce. My husband even said it was very very good.

I bought a 5 pound chicken and spatchcocked it. Washed, and rubbed with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled Bone Sucking Rub. Inserted the thermometer in the breast.

Used one full chimney of kbb and no water pan. All bottom vents were opened all the way until the heat reached up to 300* then I adjusted for them to be open a quarter of the way. The temperature settled to like 325* I was ok with that being it was a first time cook for me.

It took about a little over an hour to cook. Here are the pictures












As I said before, this was terrific and very juicy. Enjoy your weekend.
 
Great cook Jo, Barb and I do HH chicken parts on the mini or 18.5. I usually run about 375-400 for the crisp skin. The juices dripping and flaming up give the chicken such a great flavor.

Hi Rich and Barb,
How much charcoal do you put in the mini? I'm guessing the chimney full was enough? It took me a long time to get enough courage to do this type of cook because of the flair up. As soon as I get proficient then I will go higher temp. At least now I no longer have to pine for the rotisserie lol
