WOW Chicken. Again.

Haven't had this in a while so it was time. Philly35's post a couple of weeks ago reminded me.
On the large. 400°, raised direct. No new pics, but it looked like my original...

This time, rather than making a paste with the rub and oil, I just brushed the oil on and then sprinkled the rub on that. The skin seemed more crisp, but I don't think dry rub vs paste was the reason. Might have been the repeated flipping I did this time. I know a lot of you don't flip a spatched bird at all. You might give it a try next time. Skin side up for the first 20 minutes or so, then flip every so often til done.
Served this with sautéed zucchini in Lidia Bastianich's simple and excellent marinara sauce. I should have taken a pic of the zucchini, it was every bit as good as the chicken! Next time you need a tomato sauce, give it a try!
Hope you try the chicken!

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Awesome looking grub.
Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
Status- Standing by.
The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
