Question about Spatchcock Chicken
Options

Posts: 196
I'm going to be doing a spatchcock tonight and was hoping for some quick imput on timing. I will be cooking the chicken to temp (obviously), and will be doing it on a raised grid direct at 350-400. Does anyone have a rough estimate how long it should take? Are we talking 30(ish) minutes or an hour(ish). Just curious for timing of the side dishes. Thanks!

45 to 60 minutes in my experience. but you will want to set the chicken aside to rest anyway.
figure 60 minutes. it won't go cold if you need to make it wait a bit to time some veggies or something

The one I did last night was in the 45-60 min range closer to the 60 min mark.

Plan on an hour. Could deviate 15 minutes either way.

As Stike says, 45-60 minutes at your temp range, then rest for 10-15 minutes.John in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

About an hour in my experience, depending on the size of the bird.
165 for the breast and 180 for thigh. They should be ready at the same time

Just this side of an hour depending of if you are closer to 350 or to 400.Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

Yeah, I love these threads that go 10+ posts and everyone is saying the same thing. I think the OP got it.

and we got tweev's point before you repeated it. how many people does it take to make the point that repeating a point is uneccessary?
