Tried a new setup on the Egg.

Cooked the Chicken Indirect then moved over the coals to finish up. Dropped the Links on about 1/2 way through the cook. Good stuff.

Looks good.

A nice smoke then a little direct heat to crisp it up.

Looks great. What temp did you cook it at?

Thanks

I'm guessing the 3rd brick was holding the pan up? Nice looking grub!

I like the setup- that's exactly what I'd like to accomplish in my large BGE. Thanks for the idea! :thumb:

Thanks, Dome was at 400º and the grate was 375º.

Thanks, that is what the 3rd brick was for.

Very nice How did you like the set up

Thanks, I liked it a lot! The temps stayed steady. It was easier to control the fire, the Sausage was cooked just to the side over the Lump without burning. The issue I always have is trying to keep the fire in check, even with the lower damper closed way down the heat builds very fast. This setup allowed me more time to turn the food without having the fire grow too fast.

Was there a reason for putting the coals to the rear of the EGG instead of left or right or front?

Furthest away from the Intake...

It's also easiest to cook up front. That's how I set my Egg up for grilling, because it gives you the option of finishing indirect if necessary.

That is some great looking food, and great pics! :thumb::thumb:

Mister Bob- I see you have a Large BGE- what are you using to separate the two zones? Firebricks or some other way?

Sorry about the hijack!

How long did you cook the chicken over the coals to firm up the skin?

I guess about 10 minutes. :wink:
