I have been cooking chicken halves for 20 mins/side. I will try leaving it skin down or a shorter time. Thanks for sharing.

Still on my bucket list! I need to make this. Here are the ingredients and instructions from the video and website:
https://foodwishes.blogspot.com/2019/07/buttermilk-barbecue-chicken-not-just.htmlIngredients for 2 portions:
1 whole chicken (about 2 1/2 to 3 lbs.), cut in half as shown
For the marinade:
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne
2 tablespoons kosher salt
Mix all marinade ingredients.
Spatchcock and split a whole 2-3 lb chicken in half.
Marinate for 6 - 18 hours in a bag, in a bowl.
Pat dry with paper towel and sprinkle some salt on the skin.
Pre-heat Egg to 375-400 direct.
Cook chicken skin side up for 20 minutes.

A couple things if you watch this video. Chef John has a couple hip hop references injected in...one being from Biz Markie. Awesome.
Second, the intonation of his voice is very, uhhh...distinct. The last two syllables of each phrase he uses end on the exact same, sing-songy two notes. If that stuff distracts you like it does me, turn on closed captioning and hit mute!
The content is fantastic though. Can’t wait to make this!LBGE since June 2012

Yes, @SaltySam, the way he speaks makes me a bit crazy; however, the few videos I have watched contain good info.

Tried buttermilk, again, this evening, on one bone-in breast and two boneless breasts. All good; however, I think the recipe is more magical with skin-on, bone-in chickens. As before, I recommend this recipe.

My chicken halves have been marinating overnight. I will be cooking this afternoon. The only change I'm tempted to make is to take advantage of my KAB adjustable divider and set up two zones--direct and indirect. Still thinking bout this option.LG BGE, KJ Jr, Smokin Bros.

I did this last weekend but used my platesetter, so the skin wasn't quite as dark.

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

I ended up cooking indirect using CGS gear. Here's a photo when nearly finished.
Edit: The one in the back needed a little more time. I let it cook another 10 minutes.
