somebody shut me the fark up.
I discovered a great deal on whole chicken at the local Albertsons last Thursday. Distractors kept me from forming a full plan until this morning, but...
I fired up T. Mac's Latin Wings recipe/process.
I marinated the bird in Badia Mojo and Bitter Orange for most of the day before giving it a medium covering of Tajin.
I flipped the Vortex upside down in the middle of my 22.5 Kettle. No photos of this setup, but the hot coals went around the outside with the bird on one of those goofy "beer can chicken" holders (for stability).
Here's the results:
Lovely crisp skin with moist meat beneath.
The flavor didn't penetrate the meat like in a longer marinade (duh!), but it sure worked wonders on the skin and fat!
If you haven't played with this stuff before, I'd highly recommend it.
Y'all have a great week!
