We are gonna spin up a couple birds this afternoon on chargriller with Kingsford and a little hickory

I brined birds in salt water and sugar for like 3 hrs, then air dried in fridge overnight

1 bird with lemon pepper

1 with a new rub ....pretty simple

2 tablespoons brown sugar

2 tablespoons dry mustard

1 tablespoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

and sprinkled celery salt on insides of each bird 

Will keep grill around 350 and should be around 2 hrs or so, till I get an internal of 165 - 170 

1 Side is wife is making her Homemade Stuffing 

1 loaf of bread

1/2 Vidalia onion 

1 1/2 cup of cut up celery with the leafs 

1 stick of butter

1 can of chicken broth

saute onions, butter, and celery till onions are soft 

dump all into bowl of bread, mix thoroughly  along with can of chicken broth

put into pan,( no need to spray pan ),  and cover with foil, bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes 


and second side is..... Summer Baked  Zucchini Casserole

1 1/2 lbs of 1/4 inch thick slices 

6 green onions chopped ( scallions)

1 egg beaten

3/4 cup Kraft classic ranch dressing 

1 1/2 cup sharp shredded cheese

16 round buttery crackers crushed

heat oven to 350 deg

spray casserole dish with cooking spray, lay all sliced zucchini in, sprinkle all chopped scallions over zucchini, add ranch dressing all over the top, add all the cheese all over everything,then sprinkle the cracker crumbs all over the top,  bake for 30 minutes


then, here is both sides all done ......


now ... off the the birds ... just putting them on the grill now ...lets get this grillin started  ... 

grill is at 300, and double row of Kinsford long front and rear with foil between to catch all drippings, 


it's  2 in the afternoon, probably done in a couple hrs... time for a cocktail ....lol

Thanks Chile, thanks for the points as well... nice to grill chicken,and not continuously turn it over and over .....
 
Thanks Al, seems it all turned out good, give that zucchini casserole a whirl ....
 
Thinking of making a couple birds on rotisserie Saturday , now since I got the ampns , would like to smoke up the birds .. the chargriller has a lot of leaks .. especially with the cut outs for the rotisserie , if I lite it, should i lite both ends ???
Cause Sunday .. ( gameday ) , we are gonna make some ribs and stuffed poblanos in the mes .. just to try it all out ...
So, lite one end or both ??? I am thinking both
 
Tasty lookin birds griz! Might start with lighting one end first and see how good of TBS you have. You can easily light the other end later if you need. But me personally, since you are using charcoal, why don't you just throw a couple of chunks of wood in with the briquettes and forsake the AMNPS.
 
Just wanting to play with new toy .......... lol.... Sunday with some ribs in the mes .. I will try it out one end lit only ..
 
Thanks john , did these a while back ... gonna spin up a couple birds in afternoon tomorrow after I put some new tires on my Grand Cherokee in the AM ...
