Yesterday cooked my first whole chicken (ever in my life!) . I spatchcocked it (of course), covered in rub, and cooked on the charcoal grill with indirect head and a foil pack of applewood chips.

Bad photo, but here it is.


ETA: I am currently simmering the carcass, bones, and skin with some carrots, onion, celery, parsley, and thyme, for my first-ever stock.

Here is the bounty from my first time using the smoker, to smoke salmon

Here's another one. Two giant charcoal fired grills full of Ribeyes for my kid's school fundraiser.

Ive done 6 of these bad boys at once!

yeah baby
