Marinated Poussin

TomM24

This was last night dinner


I guess Eggers would call it spatchcocked baby chicken. Cooked it indirect at 350. It surprised me that it took a little over an hour. On the weber they were always 45 minutes.
Part of the problem was my ET-73 kept reading HHH so I opened the dome up a few times to move the probe. I am surprised I got an overtemp at around 350. Any suggestions on how to fix it?
The birds Came out nice an juicy. Alas no pictures as the camera batteries are now being recharged.

Sounds like you may have a bad probe or shorted cable.

i agree one thing to remeber is difference between grate and dome. your probe may have been taking some direct heat from the lump. maybe tnw has a spot about grate vs. dome?

I purchased the same poussin tonight.
I preheated my BGE to 350. I cooked the birds directly on the grill boney side down for 25 min and then 15 min breast side down with the lid closed.
They turned out fantastic - crispy skin; moist inside.
