tastyness on the cheap, spatchcock chicken in the backyard is mighty good.
Seasoned these here with Plowboy’s YardBird…

I dropped a handful of black walnut shells in the chimney
before adding the charcoal, then lit the crumpled newspaper underneath.

The chicken is on!!!! I’m using a smallish, half a fist sized, piece
of white oak and a handful of pecan shells for the smoke flavoring,

It all made for a wonderful supper, and I'll use the leftovers with inspiration from the local Church Ladies HomeMaker's Guide....:thumb:
Thanks for checking out my stuff…..
 
I always get a big kick out your threads N8!

Great lookin grub cuz!
 
looks awfully tasty!

I'm curious why you added the black walnut shells...I've got a boatload of them from my tree, and a bunch of nuts left to shell
 
Looks great !!! I like your half height UDS. Makes me want to get my UDS back from my son. What's the purpose of the bean can on top of your lid vent ?

the black walnut shell has so much natural oil in them that they make
the perfect fire starter when combined with a little newsprint....

I use it as a windbreak for the exhaust...works well....

I'm guessing hanging out in yer backyard is a great thing to do! :thumb:

thanks for the tip! I usually just use the side burner on my gasser...but that will give me something to do with all the shells I end up with.
