Chicken and Ribs- No added smoke-Fail

Good link above about young chickens, which this was. I'm positive it was temp safe, I just can't get past red chicken blood. I feel sorry for the chicken and the pig :-((
 
Going to cook a young chicken and a rack of spares in the Primo XL. Using all natural lump from Whole Foods- which is really nice btw. I don't have a Whole Foods in Amarillo but pick up a few bags when in Santa Fe or Dallas. Why no smoking wood- just want to try without. Meat seasonings and lump coal.

Notified the Boss I needed another day off. Slept yesterday 8:45 to 7:00 am this morning. Not 100%, but all systems normalized and 1000% better.

Guess if I was ever going to quit alcohol this would be the time as I have a 6 day unplanned head start. Maybe a glass of wine :))

Stomach flu will have you thinking all kinds of crazy thoughts. :sick: Now just calm down, relax, get better and at least you got to cook the food. That is therapy in it's self.
 
The good new is the ribs you tossed were enhanced anyways :)

They sure looked good though.
 
I would have tossed it all too. I blame the lack of alcohol.
