Justin Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Used new set up from cast iron grates that lets you put chicken lower down under grate so fits easier. Cherry smoked. Just some oregano pepper a little salt. No brine. Delicious. Using all the left overs and carcass to make stock tomorrow for soup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamG Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Looks fantastic😋👍 I really like the look of that grate setup, some good innovation there🔥👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 Yes. Comes preseasoned though I seasoned it again. I store grates indoors too. Leaving outsides seems like asking for trouble. Easy to clean 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamG Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 My cast iron grids are hidden from the wif... I mean stored in the house aswell😉😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 All the carcass and wings and bones go in the Indra pot to make a stock. Smells so good then all the recovered meat from the legs are made into a soup with the left over gravy from the chicken juices yesterday the mashed swede and carrot. Wonderfully good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pittmab Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Those gates look very cool 😎 and nice looking birds! Have to say, I've done a few "beer can" chickens and can't say I notice any real difference/improvement. Do you find you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I do it in a bag in oven then that is also juicy but less biteability as it falls apart but more. Fine lines but different. Also depends on what beer and smoke used. Choices. I did use a fresh chicken too not frozen. From nice butchers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
