Eggtoberfest '07 Hangover

Unknown

Sorry I did not make the festivities this year. Last year was EGGtastic!![p]So I had to create a little diversion to recover from a quiet evening last couple of nights![p]Chicken, Pieces, Tandoori, Richard Fl


[p]INGREDIENTS:
20-30 Pieces Chicken, Skin on of off, your choice
2-3 Cups PLAIN Yogurt
4-6 Tbs Tandoori Paste, PATAK'S Spicy Ginger & Garlic, Marinade & Grill Sauce




Procedure:
Marinade:
1 Take the chicken pieces and score deep cuts into the meat to allow the tandoori marinade to penetrate the meat.
2 Mix the yogurt and tandoori paste together, about 2 parts yogurt and 1 part tandoori sauce, and spoon into the cuts and all over. Place in a non-reactive container, I used a gallon ziploc bag.
3 Place in refrigerator 8 hours, overnight is OK but not longer. Remove from refrigerator 1 hour before cooking and let come to room temperature.
Cooking:
1 Set large BGE up indirect, plate setter legs up, got BGE to 400°F w/ apple wood for smoke, and placed the chicken in the BGE. Had 2 full size grills with the chicken layed out over the aluminum mesh from Wally World. Keeps things from falling down.
2 Temperature dropped to 250°F, due to mass of cold meat. Got back to 400°F and let cook for 45 minutes.
3 After 45 minutes removed the indirect set-up and cooked all on one grill another 25 minutes direct at 350°F. Pulled when the breasts reached 160°F and the thighs/drumsticks 170°F.
4 Served with split red lentil soup and french fries with curry sauce. Yes, Curry Sauce, not bad.


Yield: 6-8 Servings
Cooking time: 1 hour and 20 minutes
