First Spatchcock Chicken - Wow

Shiff · July 2009

I've been reading all the great posts about spatchcock chicken and finally got to try one tonight. I wish I had taken pictures, but didn't have the time.

Got a 5 pound roaster at the market and cooked it on a raised grid at 350 degrees (dome) direct for an hour and it was perfect. I've never had such a juicy chicken with both breast and thigh cooked correctly.

We'll definitely be doing one of these again.

I have to agree with you about spatchcock chicken. Always turns out perfect. One of my favorite ways to do chicken.

My wife says it is the best way we have ever prepared a chicken. She also liked it because the cooked bird was easier to serve than working with a whole uncut chicken like the beer can chicken we made a few weeks ago.
