Ground Chicken Patties

edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
A while ago I bought some Perdue ground chicken patties for some reason and stuck them in the freezer. Tonight I'm going to give them a bath in olive oil and put them on the egg, indirect, with some Jack Daniels chips and try to smoke them a bit while cooking (they're still a little frozen). [p]Does anyone have any more interesting ideas for these things?[p]Janet

    Janet, thats a good approach for starters. Keep it simple and experiment. Here is something you might try on the patties. I did this with butterflied boneless breast one evening. Covered with olive oil, sprinkled to suit taste with Tones Lemon Pepper, and then for grins and giggles, I sprinkled em lightly with a coating of Potato flakes right out of the box. covered with plastic and let em sit for a few hours..onto the grill at 600 to 650F indirect on a second grill, and they turned out very good. Nice and moist and when you could break one in two with the tongs, you knew you had hit the right doneness.
    Should work on the patties as well.

    BTW..I chased these with a flip every 10 minutes till they were finished.

    Howdy Janet,
    Probably too late for you, but indirect might dry them out. I would slather them with mustard and a rub, or a paste with spices and mustard and maybe a tad of lime juice, or even olive oil like you did, and some spices. Grill direct at 400-450 for 5 minutes a side. A little crust, and the quick cook won't dry them out.[p]Maybe for next time!
    How did they come out?

    Char-Woody,
    Dang. Close again!!
    I agree with you. Indirect would be doable with higher temps.
    Good thing I was lookin for ya.

    Char-Woody and NB:
    Like every egg meal so far this ended up better than I thought it could. After the olive oil bath, I added garlic powder (too lazy for fresh and I was experimenting after all)and some lemon seasoning (like Tone's). I cooked them (indirect) at 250 to 300 for about 20 minutes on first side and 15 minutes on second. They were surprising moist and good. Is it possible to make something awful on the egg?? Haven't done it yet.[p]Thanks for the ideas - these were good enough that I'll try again. [p]I've never been a big fan of internet forums, but this one is definitely an exception. First site I go to when I boot up![p]Thanks again!

    Nature Boy, Sorry late, I had to go eat a super sirloin...garnished with saute'ed mushrooms, onion, and melted on swiss cheese..oooooooh...Even my pup Patti is satisfied. She is my best critic..:-)[p]I was surprised again with the high temp cook. I was in a hurry so I pushed the envelope to get meal on wheels. Wiffy was hungry..:-)
