Sorry about the picture , idk why it did that
How long did you marinate ? I'll be going 15-20 hrs unless. I cook t early in the day and have for lunch
I marinated mine about 24 hours. Then cooked them hot and fast around the Vortex in my kettle. Dome temp was 550 and it took 45 minutes to get the thighs to 165 IT
I was using the Vortex. The chicken was around the outside of the grate. The dome shows really hot with the Vortex because the cone is concentrating the heat upward. By the time the heat circles back down to the grate it is much less hot. I don't have an IR therm so I'm not sure of the temp around the outside of the grate. My guess would be somewhere around 300ish. There is nowhere near as much sizzle when you put the meat on as there would be if you cook direct with the same dome temp. This link shows how the indirect high heat works. Pics show wings but I did the same thing with the Jah Love thighs this time.That seems like a long time ? Why would it take 45 min at over 500 degree?
Nice score on the Pappy! It's hard to notice anything else with such a fine libation in the picture. I'm sure the chicken, ribs or beef...whatever went well with it. :mrgreen:
