Cornell style chicken is the preferred method of cooking chickens in the southern tier of new york state. Normally, the chicken is cooked on a grill and basted with a mop of oil, vinegr and spices. I have taken it to a different level by cooking it over oak on my Klose, instead of charcoal on one of those trough style grills. The book BBQ USA has a much more thourough write up about this style of cooking. Personally, I find that this makes for the tastiest chicken I've ever had. Crispy skin, juicy meat and smoky flavor. Sauce is optional but always served on the side.Nice! What's Cornell Style Chicken?
