Very interesting. Thank you Bill. That's a lower temp that I've seen used around here. Makes me want to try this on my Egg. I usually roll at 325, then open it up to crisp.
I've been brining a bird all day on the counter, as I've described earlier. With it, I'm doing a fresh Blueberry / balsamic vinegar / fresh rosemary / maple syrup chicken tonite. Spatchcocked 450+ in the egg until crispy and bronze, then brought inside, cut into pieces, added to the above sauce in then into a shallow cooking dish right under the broiler for maybe 10 more minutes.
It's a take-off of Rao's Chicken in Harlem. Same technique, different acidic sauce
This is just a guess but my LSG moves so much air it seems to cook faster than I thought it would based on the temp gauge. Once it gets to temp there is no smoke coming out the exhaust just invisible heat, have only used a mix of pecan and mesquite. Here is a pic of exhaust running around 285.
