I feel like chicken tonight...

FlyFishNC

Well, last night actually. I fired up the egg for some guests and we did chicken breasts. Since I needed to offer up some choices I cooked 3 breasts with one of the rubs from Naked Whiz, 2 with a mustard bbq sauce, and 2 plain for the young'uns. They were all real good and super tender. Why didn't I buy an egg earlier?!

Horrible iPhone pic of chicken parts cooking:


Let's eat:

Looks good! I see you went direct on the fire ring. What temp and how long? I ask because a lot of people will raise the grid to the level of the felt with firebricks, bolts, special rig setups, you name it and set the temp high like 400F.

I am with you on both "I felt like chicken tonight" and why did it take so long to get a BGE?

For the chicken I also used direct cooking at about 400 just S & P the length of time was until they are done, don't measure spices either. Then I let the EGG get nice and hot and tossed some Tuna steaks on the grill, yum! These with a little EVOO S & P, great sandwiches.

I never knew about the modern EGG until I asked to get a new grill and my wife said this is the one we are getting, lucky me!

I went 350 for 14 minutes on the first side, then flipped the chicken and cooked till done. I don't have the setup right now to raise the grid and still cook direct.

Supper looks good. Iphone or not! :laugh: That last pic made me laugh. Guy on the forum named bill always running around in flip flops or bare foot with a set of hairy toes in his pis sometimes. Kind of like "Where's Waldo" to find them. Whats for supper tonight??!
