Late night Spatchcock

Had a chicken in the fridge drying for tonight.  I didn't get home from work until well past dinner time but I need to get this guy cooked.  Raised indirect at 375ish until it hits about 162 or 163 IT.  Butter and rub under the skin and butter and rub and more rub on the outside.  This will be my 2nd one of these since getting the egg.  Hoping it comes out as good as the first!

    These guys come out SO juicy.  The beer can/sitting chicken roasting method is good, but so far I'm loving this spatchcock cooking!

    Hard to beat a spatch **** bird off the Egg. Good job.

    On a side note, why don't you add your location in your signature so we know where abouts you are?

    Ya got me, but you're too far away to stalk. ;)  I like to see if people are close to me. I think I just spotted a newcomer here on this site from Plano and that's just down the road from me.

    I've met quite a few guys at Eggfests, but its been years since I've been to one. Over 5 and I know that because I haven't been to one since my son was born. Always something going on...
