  1. Yep, a boring whole chicken. Even when they turn out juicy and yummy, it's still chicken. However, I wanted to try a whole one instead of spatchcock like the last one. I prefer the spatchcock because the skin comes out more crisp and the meat has a better texture. We ate this one anyway.

    Used the firebox splitter and put the chicken on the main grate opposite the fire. No heat deflector.

     

    Cooked at 325 using the CyberQ with a straightened out food probe and the grill probe stuck in a piece of walnut that I drilled. It stuck out about 3" on the other side of the walnut cube (bandsaw). Worked like a champ. I also mounted the CyberQ metal plate to a homemade stand made from 3/4" MDF.  Now it sits pretty on my teak shelves.

  2. Ok, cool. How long did it take and what internal temp did you shoot for? Last questions, I promise! (For this thread anyway:))

    It was a 13 pounder and it took approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes. I wanted the thigh to hit at least 175 degrees because it wasn't going to sit long after I pulled it off the Komodo. The breast meat was super juicy!

  3. Practice turkey for when Thanksgiving rolls around. Cooked at 350 until the end when it was ramped up. This is a 13 pounder and it fits like a glove on the 21" Komodo. Next time I'll put it straight on the grill with pan on lower rack. Or I may spatchcock it.  It was very juicy and slightly smokey from the pecan wood.

  4. I put hoisin sauce and Chinese sweet pepper sauce on them. No oil of any kind. The black you see on them is the sugar in the sweet pepper sauce that burned. However, I like that flavor. Weird, I know. I cooked them at 350 for about 3 1/2 hours. Your milage will vary since these weren't as meaty as other beef ribs I've seen.  And Tomahawk66, hot-links are just sausages that are well peppered. Some are a lot hotter than others. And like CC said, they're great on a bun with onions, relish, mustard or BBQ sauce. Makes a great lunch or snack while other stuff is cooking.
