From the weber test kitchen...  brined overnight in a mix of buttermilk, cholula, yellow mustard, salt, pepper, chipotle powder and white vinegar.
Breaded in whole wheat flour, salt and pepper. Refrigerated for 2 hours and sprayed with butter prior to hitting the grate.
Vents wide open, vortex small side up for 50 minutes to an IT of 175°. No flip no vent rotation straight cook with a check at 25 minutes and a second at the 40 minute mark.
Served with waffles with duck stock gravy and an up egg... damn this was good.

Looks amazing!  Damm now I need a Fleetwood just to do kettle fried chicken.   Everyone needs goals, right.

Wow!!! Love the chicken and waffles! It never occurred to me that I can make that at home now! How was the crispiness? Thanks for sharing!

Crisp was nice... I think remembering that this isn't fried chicken is key to not getting caught up on where this falls short of fried chicken for a purist. Now if I can figure out how to do the without sticking like a sonofabitch to the grate I'd be stoked.

Excellent job Matt!

I think I am going to try this again next week. My wife thought your egg was perfect btw! Her quote: "It looks like it came out of a kid's play kitchen."

Stop it. You're making me hungry. It's coming up to dinner time down here and all I've got is sausages...

Awesome cook on the Fleetwood, I have had some success spraying my cook grate just before placing the chicken on with grapeseed oil @inkaddictedchef1
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

It looks like the fleetwood did a remarkable job cooking evenly.

That all looks incredible.

Chef.
Thank you.

You inspire me to do your cooks. I have made the Coppermist chili twice and the carnitas once. They where both great as I'm sure this will be also. Can you help me out with some rough measurements of these ingredients?  buttermilk, cholula, yellow mustard, salt, pepper, chipotle powder and white vinegar
Also I was thinking about substituting chicken tenders instead of bone in peices. Should I brine them for a shorter period of time?
Or should I gets some thighs and drums instead?
