Made up a batch of Mickey's Rub tonight and put it on spatchcock chicken. It was Eggcredible. Used the rub recipe from @Mickey‌ on one of the chickens and BGE Whirly Bird on the other.

    @stemc33‌ hard to see but, did you run with indirect here. I did the same with Mickey's on Spatchcock but went raised direct at 400℉-425℉.
    Looks great man!

    Looks great. I'm a fan of the coffee rub on chickens also. I need to try it on a pork tenderloin soon.

    Nice chickens. Try it on sirloin.

    Thanks. It's raised direct. Raised the grate with firebricks. I've only done spatchcock raised direct. Actually, I think I got the idea from reading one of your post. Started this cook a little hot. I put the chicken on when the Egg was 500 degrees and adjusted the vents to bring it down to 375 degrees. It was only at 500 degrees for a few minutes.

    @stemc33‌ appears you had very delicious results even with the short 500℉ spike. Nice job.

    I'm finally getting a chance to try Mickey's rub on a Chuck Roast and have a couple of questions:

    1. How thick should I rub it on?

    2. Should I let the rub-covered roast stay in the refrigerator overnight uncovered or covered?

    3. What type of wood chunks do you recommend (Apple/Oak/Hickory/Peach, etc.) that will enhance the flavor of the meat?

    I plan to rub the roast tonight and put it on the BGE tomorrow morning.

    Any advice is greatly appreciated.
