Rub the night before with salt, pepper and garlic. Depending on size, plan on 45 mins to an hour per lb to cook it. Throw it on the pellet grill at 225F, fat cap down. Put a probe in it in the point (the thick end, in the fat layer that runs through the middle). Once the internal temp hits 165 to 170F and quits climbing quickly, pull it off the grill and wrap it in either foil or peach butcher paper (the bark softens up with foil, doesn't with the paper) and put it back on. Pull it off when the internal temp hits 203 to 205F, wrap in a towel and put it in a cooler for a minimum of an hour (I'd recommend 2 hours). Pull out and slice. They all seem to cook differently so you have to cook by temp and plan far enough ahead so you're not eating at midnight. After it's done, you can leave it in the cooler for hours and it'll still be hot when you pull it out.
I started putting mine on @ about 11:00 PM at night rather then get up @ 4 am . Turns out way better after I leave it in the cooler wrapped for a few hours

Chicken thighs in the big tray from Costco. A good price point and good quality. Salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning rub cooked on mostly low heat under the meat and high heat off to the side. Smothered in homemade BBQ sauce and service with Caesar salad. Used the time rtoday and they turned out awesome.

Tonight, I reminisced about our early years of retirement. We used to do chicken halves on the Q and homemade fresh french fries cooked in vegetable oil on the stove. Just Bev and I, the kids were gone and it was a meal that was filling and delicious.

So, I went down to the store and got the butcher to cut two chickens in half (we have son #2 with us for awhile). Cleaned them up (removed the excess fat and the pope's nose) and brushed them with a strong olive oil laced with fresh garlic. Added salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning; marinate for 2 hours. Skin side up on the Q, medium heat under the chicken and the other burners on high. 30 minutes and rotated 90 degrees (not flipped with the skin side down) for another 30 minutes. Then flipped them over with the skin side down and brushed the cooked side with the garlic laced olive oil and cooked for 30 minutes. Turned off the burners under the chicken and left the other burners on high. Turned the skin side up and smothered with home made BBQ sauce for 30 minutes. A total of 2 hours on the grill.

I know some firemen and they told me if you can't cook you will never make it in the hall fraternity.

This is true.

Food and cooking are very important

First time Brisket. The burnt ends in the cast iron pan turned out amazing!
The flat of the brisket was great beef on a bun.
The burnt ends I cut the point off and put flat in cooler while I cubed the point , smothered in bbq sauce then covered in tin foil then back on Joe for 90 min.
It was a 12 hour adventure! It turned out great but it was a a lot of messing around.

Off the grill at 145 degrees (one and a half hours) and allowed to cool. Washington peaches and cream corn and a serving of sweet potato. It was delicious. Find something on the tube and eat a little Chapman's black cherry ice cream for dessert.

Life is great. Live to eat and eat to live!!
