I wanted to play with the stick burner today but didn't have a ton of time so spatchcock chicken it is.
Resting on the counter while the smoker settles in
Ready to get happy
About halfway home. My aunt decided to come over so I threw on some thighs too.
Just before I flipped it to really put a crisp on the skin.
Thighs are looking good.
Time to rest.
This was fun. It's windy today so the OKJ ran anywhere between 250 and 320 using hickory splits but most of the time it was hanging out in its ~275 normal area. I'm kind of out of practice spatchcocking but it still turned out nice. It's such an easy thing to do that makes poultry cooks so much easier.
