As I am a stay-at-home-Dad, sometimes I have to get my grilling fix whenever I can get it. My son, Marshall, feel asleep at noon, on our way home from the library. Naps usually last about 2.5 hours, so I knew low and slow was out, but I had planned ahead and pulled some chicken thighs out of the freezer the day before. I was able to do some dishes, get the chicken and potatoes ready, fire up the charcoal (took 2 tries,) and cook (and photograph) everything in just about 2 hours.
I rubbed the thighs with some left over rub from my last pork butt.
I washed and halved the potatoes, and added them to the CIS with melted butter.
Once the charcoal was lit, I put the potatoes directly under the coals, and the chicken indirect.
Once everything was in the weber, I made some No. 5 sauce, adding a roasted red pepper that was puree'd in the blender and some dashes of Crystal hot sauce.
I rotated the grate about 3/4 of the way through, and brushed some of the sauce on the chicken a couple minutes before I pulled them. I should've checked things sooner, as the chicken thighs got to 180, and some of the potatoes got a little charred. I need a bigger grill (don't let my wife hear that...)
Here are the thighs.
and the final plate with some heirloom tomato slices.
Not my best cook, but very tasty. And he's still asleep
