I think I'm going to slow cook a chicken, halves, spatchcock, not sure yet. For those of you who do this, should I do direct or indirect?

    i find its best to low and slow dark meat, thighs at 275, wings 300, breast meat 325 or higher. you can low and slow a chicken or turkey whole, the texture is different and the skin isnt worht eating, but its really juicy. its not a roasted bird but its still good and the longer cook is sometimes convenient

    you can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it
