Rotisserie above, roasted veggies for broth below.

It'll be a week of chicken salad and chicken tortilla soup in my household.



Had a second chicken around, so decided to do some cast iron skillet spicy, crispy fried chicken.

The chicken looks great and I like the idea of putting veggies in the drip pan.
Wanted: 18" Platinum any color will work
This is my Kettle there are many like it but this one is mine......

Wow. I've never heard of putting veggies in the drip pan like that. Any particulars concerns or specifics you'd care to mention? My wife got me a rotis for Christmas and I'm wanting to roast a chicken or two this week. Cooking it over veggies sounds more productive.

I only roast the veggies to add to the bones later to make broth.

The carrots taste great after the cook, but the broccoli is so over cooked it's almost inedible.

I guess if you took the veggies out earlier, they would be good to eat, too.

As far as the rotisserie goes, that's the most amazing accessory I own. It has made multiple perfect chickens, 8 perfect Cornish hens, and a perfect prime rib, so far.

FYI - I normally use the charcoal baskets for the coals, but I left them at my cousin's over Christmas and haven't retrieved them yet.

Wife said "No more GRILLS in this house!" So I bought a 2nd house!

Gotcha. Does adding wood to the charcoal make the broth smokey?

You do pick up a hint of the smoke in the broth, absolutely.

I start with a buttermilk, onion, garlic, and hot wing sauce (Frank's, Louisiana, etc) brine.

Then I season generously with half of a spice rub (cayenne, garlic powder, salt, pepper, celery salt, paprika, onion powder, etc).

I mix the other half of the seasoning with some self-rising flour. Then I make an egg wash with eggs, milk, and more hot wing sauce...then do the flour dip-egg wash dip-flour shake, and into the oil @ 325 until done.

Looks great. I actually picked up a rotisserie this weekend and used it for the first time today.

Sorry. I meant to ask if you used charcoal alone or with wood. I'd be inclined to just use charcoal for saving drippings for stock. Thanks for the idea.

I use a normal load of charcoal, and two small pieces of Applewood early in the cook.
