Chicken in the rain...

[hawgheaven]

As me and my li'l sous chef planned our strategy and got the chicken coated in Mad Hunky General Purpose rub, it started pouring down rain. "That's okay Emily, we have 4 hours until I have to lite the coals. We have a big patio umbrella over our area, so I am cooking in the rain." Emily says, "So am I!"  Gotta love this kiddo!

Here's our prep work, which had a rest in the fridge until it was time to cook:

We did it, despite the crappy weather!

Chix all done, cooked indirect around the Vortex using RO lump, kettle temp around 450. They got spritzed occasionally with a mix of dark rum, cranberry juice, and worchy...



Let's eat! Served up with fresh beets, a fresh greens salad with homemade vinaigrette, and some curly pasta...



Thanks for lookin'!

@Darko I think lawn clippings . Wow the kid did a great job! @hawgheaven Did Emily plate the food or is that your work? I know I do some lawn clippings from time to time depending on who's stopping over for some BBQ!

Thanks everyone! The greens are a mix of non-lawn clipping, bagged mixed greens found in the produce section of the supermarket. Emily assisted in the cook, but did not do the plate... that was me.
