triehle98

Hello guys and gals I have a 7lb roaster im going to spatchcock and season with whatever i can find . I am trying to find some methods to make sure it is a success. I have a xl and a plate setter . How should I approach this cook. All i have ever cooked is butts and steaks etc... no chicken .
Thanks for your advice eggheads I know yall wont lead me down the wrong path

raised grill, 350 degrees. direct heat. 7 lb. bird will take approx 1-1/2 hr. but cook to temperature.

Is there a BEER in that spatchcock? Why would you do that?

I generally do them indirect at about the same temp.

Probably just beer in the Spatch COOK.

For a first time cook try and keep it the cook as forgiving as you can. Hear is a link to one I did some time back: http://www.eggheadforum.com/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&func=view&id=486408&catid=1#

If you don't have a raised grid, I like JLOCKHART29's post of how he did the indirect. Steve shows a good lookin chik too with indirect.

Either way you're gonna love that chicken.
