Yeah well at the moment me and the Airman PBC are fighting. I'm struggling to get the temp back up to 325. Its wanting to hang at 300°. Maybe she's mad because I haven't used her in awhile. Or maybe its the wind.....:mmph:

Edit: I'm back to 340 now......I threatened to pull my meat out if she didnt heat up..:heh:

Could be an EPIC FAIL......its not looking right at the moment. We'll see when its done!

 

[AClarke44]

Starting to look good! Almost done....

 

[AClarke44]

Ok overall I'm pretty happy with the looks of the chicken. A couple pieces got a tad dark but overall they look good. I'll rate the taste and provide a plated pic shorty. It smells great though!

 

[Westx]

That looks really good.

Looks nice Andrew

Guys this chicken tasted great! I definitely recommend you trying it. I'll post the plated pics in a few

 

[AClarke44]

Ok guys, here's a plated pic. I will probably make a cook thread tomorrow (time for OU football now....lol). But like I mentioned earlier, the chicken was delicious. I was worried about any weird flavors being produced from the batter dripping in the coals, but I could taste nothing but good flavor. If you do this, try and keep the PBC at 340-350 if you can. Again, I definitely recommend you try this. It tastes just like fried chicken but with a slight grilled taste and ZERO oil used.
Thanks to those of you who have given the positive comments too! :thumb:

Outstanding!!

Knocked it out of the park. Nice job

That's killer Andrew!! I've done it on the kamado but never on the PBC. Won't be long. :nod:

great looking cook Aclarke, OU in a tight one for now ....

 

[AClarke44]

Outstanding!!

Thanks Brother!

Knocked it out of the park. Nice job

Thanks! You should try it, I bet you'd like it. I'm thinking you need to cook any chicken hotter (325-350) to get the flavor you are looking for.....Basically what Sako and Bob were telling you...

Do it Sako! Im sure you could come up with some creative awesomeness too! :thumb: :becky:

Thanks Twisted! Unfortunately, OU's D sucks this year. If they just had an average D they'd be hard to beat!

 

[AClarke44]

This is where I am now! :becky: Rum, coke, OU football on the 70" :thumb:

Edit: man that TV looks small in that pic...lol

 

[Bob C Cue]

I will definitely give that a try Andrew. Looks delicious
Wonder how it would be with chicken breasts?

Probably ok if they have the skin on. Otherwise I'm not sure. Just be sure if you do it with breasts you pay attention to the IT. I wasn't really worried about the IT going too high with thighs. I did check to make sure they were cooked. Most were at 190°. That would make breasts dry out.....
