 It was raining on and off today and I spotted the simplest kettle I own and decided to just do an old fashioned chicken cook today. I thought it might be fun to see for anyone that cares or some new members here. It doesn't have to be fancy to cook good food. My only complaint is I had some hot embers fly out of the ash pan. Not something one would want on a deck or flammable area. I marinated the legs overnight and used a maple seasoning. There were two kinds of sauce, Sweet Baby Rays buffalo sauce and regular barbecue sauce. The bbq sauce was the best. I used one little piece of apple wood and indirect coals. I know this is simple but they came out fantastic. Sometimes the basics are good to visit. My worst complaint is that Kingsford pro burns so fast. I used 50 coals to start and they barely lasted a half hour. They cook hot and fast but disappear quick.

Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

Looks really good Walter!  Makes me want to try something similar that I've not done in a long time.  Thanks for sharing....

Not only tasty and fun cook....chicken legs are some of most wallet friendly cooks ever.  I have the same basic kettle.  My first brand new kettle I bought in 2000.

Thank you for all the nice replies. I just wanted to add the fact my wife told me all that chicken was less than six bucks so yep it was wallet friendly.
