First spatchcock chicken

Mbeach

First attempt. 375 degrees raises direct. 10 min skin down. Flipped for aprox 40 min. Flipped back skin down for last 10 min. Great flavor and crispy skin

I did one for the first time for supper tonight also. I threw in some apple chunks in the coals and rubbed it down with my smoker rub. Tasted just like it came out of my smoker but only took an hour vs four in the smoker.

 

I do like the idea of skin down for a crispy skin, I will have to borrow that idea next time.....

Nice, I've done one tonight as well. By the way, that's a good looking bird.
