Mini-WSM chicken leg qtrs

[Chad Bman]

Since Wifey is still tired of leftover pulled pork, I picked up some chicken leg quarters. Tossed em' in a gallon size zip-lock bag with the rest of our Cesar dressing as a marinade. Getting close to dinner time and pulled out the camera.
.
I was in the mood for some smoke flavor, so I grabbed a cherry log for the mini. lol
.

.
Fired up some KBB the easiest way I know how --- gasser side burner
.

.
Fire & smoke is ready for the High Heat cook
.

.
The guests for the evening
.

.
Like it was meant to be...
.

.
See you boys in a while.
.

.
Added the second grate to the Joe and hit the bird with some direct heat to crisp up the skins.
.

.
Plated with some packaged rice and dinner was done just in time for us to head out for the weekend.
.

.
As Mr. Lampe says --- Let's eet!

Tossed the other 2 quarters in the freezer as we were heading out of town. Got back yesterday afternoon and neither one of us wanted to run out for anything. Well, got the cooked chicken in the freezer and a bunch of spuds left... So it began. Wifey got the chicken and defrosted it in the micro and I went to work on the spuds.
.
Sliced the taters the easiest way I know how --- Apple Slicer.
.

.
Basket of red-hot KBB with a hunk of hickory
.

.
Taters in the 12" CI with EVOO & a buncha seasoning
.

.
Hard to tell from the still shot, but it was raining pretty hard. The newly installed deck ceiling already paid off.
.

.
Taters are done and wife has the chicken hot & ready.
No plated pic, but it looked just like the one above except with taters instead of rice. lol
.

.

Until next time...

The apple slicer has been one of my better ideas. And used for taters waaaay more than apples. lol

Those quarters fit in the mini like a puzzle.

Those quarters fit in the mini like a puzzle.

Yes they do. But my wife just tells me I'm OCD like that.
