I live about 30 min from Shenandoah Valley, I have never heard of this...I must try it!
Looks terrific bro.
I be you've seen the chicken barbecues held all around the area by volunteer fire departments, 4H clubs, Ruritan clubs, etc. All of them cook a version of Virginia Shenandoah Valley-style chicken.
Virginians have never been big on bragging about their BBQ so they don't usually describe it as "Virginia BBQ" but Virginia BBQ it is.
The recipe goes back decades and was made famous first in the Harrisonburg, VA area.
