- No Vortex. No Slow n Sear. No Briquette Basket. This video shows you how I make a simple BBQ chicken with no charcoal accessories. Nothing against them, and I use them all the time, but it is extremely easy to get great results using basic indirect methods which will yield a beautiful, flavorful, juicy bird.

That's classic . Just a grill, some charcoal, Ana a chicken. Makes my mouth water.
Yep. Works like a charm :)
One at home chef out there. I just have a Weber and have been getting into smoking foods and watching your channel helps me out so much!
Just bought myself a Weber master touch, we're over here in the UK and this is by far my favourite channel! Thanks for the content!
Awesome! Thank you!
I liked your honest approach to the taste test! Your hat stayed on and your eyes didn’t roll back in your head. You didn’t shake all over. You kept standing on two feet. You didn’t say, OMG this is soooooooo gooooooood 23 times!! I really appreciate you keeping the drama queen out of the video! When I was 15 yrs. old I started paying attention to how my dad cooked chicken. Now I’m 60 and have probably used over 50 variations of cooking fricken chickens, and this way is always one of the best there is. Pretty work!!
Cooking up a full chicken as per your directions on my Weber right now while enjoying some suds. Love how you keep it simple and down to earth, that’s what charcoal bbq is all about!
Enjoy that bird!
Cooking with RY ,you have moved up to my number 1 go to Grilling/Cooking videos, PERIOD! I'm sitting in my backyard with a split down the middle chicken on my Weber Kettle just enjoying a beautiful afternoon here in Florida. Yeah it's very warm here even in the shade. WOW!, it sure smells good where I'm sitting. 👍😎👍
This takes me back to the church chicken bbq's of yester year. thanks for this!
I had seen this video when it came out, but it just popped up again. I really appreciate you in a world where people like to push expensive accessories and grills/smokers. I have a 22” master, as well as a Yoder 640. I use the kettle more than not. It makes me happy to see a purist like yourself showing us how simple making great food can actually be. You are great. I watch every new video you post. They’re great. Keep goin bud.
Thanks so much. I have plenty of gadgets and accessories, but my Weber Kettle is by far my favorite cooker :)
Great video and amazing background music!!!
I've been cooking my chicken like this for years. My family loves it!
One of the things I love about BBQ/grilling is that you can use one of those disposable Aluminum grills, the most basic Weber kettle, or high end pellet grills and offset smokers and get delicious results every time as long as you've mastered the basics. Not that some of the accessories and fancier cookers aren't great, they are just not necessities. Thanks for keeping it simple sometimes.
Very true words. The 'toys' make things easier at times, but absolute basics can give you great food :)
Cooking at the lower temp is where I've ended up with whole chicken. Thanks for the video.
Sure looked delicious. Never thought BBQ chicken was supposed to be crispy. Liked it simple!
I really love your work, thanks for the tips!
Regards from Spain!
Cooked you recipe this weekend. Absolutely amazing. Love your channel. Keep the videos coming. Pete. (United Kingdom) 🇬🇧
Thanks so much :)
I'm currently using a little Weber camp grill to smoke a whole chicken, as well as pork butts and chuck roasts. It's a tight fit on the chicken, have to put a piece of foil over it to prevent contact with the lid, but it still comes out pretty good. I need to get 1 of those kettles!!!
It's nice you show Fahrenheit and Celsius
I was just going to say that
The bird the bird the bird is the word. Perfect cooked can't wait to give it a try
It was a tasty bird :)
Very simple and to the point..the best way to grill!!
Awesome tips and recipes as always Ry! Thank you so much for the content. You have been my main kettle training!
Thanks for the kind words :)

This is my kind of barbecue chicken done on my kinda grill.
No B.S.
Thanks!
Thank you for these videos. Simple and easy to follow
I like the simplicity of your latest videos. Just chicken, rub and bbq . Very nice!!
Thank you! Simple is sometimes the most fun :)
Agreed. You dont need 500 steps to make great food. Just a nice simple weekday meal. Perfection!
Ry your videos are great. Simple and straightforward. Can you make a Kentucky bourbon bbq rack of lamb video? Thanks again
You can't go wrong with the KISS method of grilling or barbecuing! (Keep It super Simple)
Very true. The accessories are nice, but you can always fall back on the basics :)
I’ve grilled chickens so many ways, including this basic two zone method. It’s as good as charcoal chicken gets. What’s the BEST basic bbq chicken, though? Trim fatty skin a little around both ends of the cavity, salt and pepper, smoke on a stick burner (or pellet grill if it’s what you have) at 225-ish* until 130-140* internally, and then stoke the fire to 325 or so until it’s 160* in the breast. You get more time to drink beer if that’s your thing, but the slow cooking with the hot and fast finish truly is the best of both worlds. Instead of that smoldering wood on charcoal taste, you get the clean, true wood-fired smoke flavor, juicy and moist chicken, and yes, the prolonged cooking coupled with the hot and fast finish results in great tasting skin. No bbq sauce needed! Nowadays my kettles are mainly for burgers, brats, dogs, chops, steaks. So I use the grill for grilling and my smoker for smoking. Imagine that.
I love this video, back to the basics. Thanks Ry!
Thanks for sharing! Very well done.
Yum! I left a pan of water beside the chicken.. swear it helped keep it super tender
Simple and delicious brother! Great job Ry!
Thanks! It's fun to go back to basics sometimes :)
So glad I found this guy! Well done.
Thank you!
Back to basics nice RY. Love it. Thats how we started.
Just a pile of charcoal and a bird :)
That’s how I lite my heat beads.good work on the Webber
so simple, but I bet that chicken was incredible. well done
Thank you! It was tasty :)
@@CookingWithRy yep! I just did some on the grill for dinner and the wife was shocked at how good it turned out
I remember back in the day using bricks as a separator. Nice looking chicken.
Good looking yard bird you got there! 👍
She was a tasty one :)
It's 3am and I'm watching this, now I'm hungry
That is a great cook! I like to find the most simple ways to cook chicken, it turns out the best!
Very true!
I made this over the weekend and it was fabulous!
Awesome!
This was great ! Even my kids loved it and that’s saying something !
Awesome!
That chicken had some great color
Thanks! I was really pleased with the color. The taste wasn't bad, either :)
Looks great. I did a BBQ chicken yesterday and the color wasn't that good but the skin was like you described. We always keep some Carolina sauce on the side for dipping....
It's so good for dipping :)
i love your channel man
Looked really tasty! 👍🏼
Thanks :)
Nice looks good thanks for sharing your video 👍💯
My mouth's watering
The color you got was awesome and still have that juiciness from taking you time. Great cook bro. Thanks again!!! 😁
That sauce sure helped :)
Mouthwatering goodness. Crispy skin on chicken is the best. Cheers Ry!
Thanks!
Lol
Ry: "Nothing fancy guys."
Proceeds to light charcoal with torch.
That's not fancy. Fancy is lighting the charcoal with Peach Schnapps -- which I've done :)
I can say first hand that this chicken was delicious. Still had a smokey taste even without wood. I also enjoyed that tangy bbq sauce you served. What are you grilling this week?
Great video just did this turned out great thanks for sharing thumbs up to you friend
I love both crispy & rubbery 🐔 skin 😋.
LOL. I can make you both :)
@@CookingWithRy perfect that's where the flavor is at least for me. Anyhow great video👍
Looks fantastic Ry! I'm going to have to try this very soon. Don't get me wrong, I love my smoked meats, but I gotta say, those birds look delicious!
Just add some wood chunks in there for some smoke. I do it all the time :)
Really enjoyable video sir. Greetings from Switzerland.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good looking birds.
Thank you :)
I like how you cook keep it up good work man!
good explanation of the chicken skin; looks great!
Thanks!
I am making this today. Thank You Sir.
Hope you enjoy it!
I love love BBQ chicken...I could eat it everyday.
Ry, a good tip that works perfect for me is to always have the legs towards the coals and breasts away; It creates the perfect gradient to get the leg and the breast each reach their presspective temperatures at the same time (175 and 160).
I was going to say the same. Side note: Whenever I do chicken pieces, I always give the thighs a head start of about 20min before I put on the rest, with the drumsticks closer to the fire along with the thighs.
Great advice!
Why do you cut it in half instead of leaving it whole? Thanks, great content.
For easy of placement on the grill and I find it cooks a bit more evenly.
Geez. How did we ever grill before those new fangled gadgets out there? Oh yea that’s how. Thanks RY 🐓
Gotta reach back in time every once in a while to remember how it was done ;)
Looks so good. This is making me hungry.
Great video. Wondering if you were able to complete the entire cooking without adding more charcoal?
For this one, yes.
Ry you are the best! Everything I have smoked after seeing your videos have turned out fantastic. Just curious, I know we smoke for internal temperature, but would you expect total smoke time to be between an hour to hour and hour and a half?
Newbie smokers like me, here is a PSA, if I can smoke good meat after watching Ry, you can too. I had NEVER smoked anything before finding Ry on You Tube a couple of months ago and now I can smoke delicious ribs, pork loin, pork tenderloin, tri tip (man I just did this and it was out of this world good) turkey breast and I’m sure my chicken will turn out great also!
I have saved another dozen videos for even more smoking projects, and all done just using indirect heat on my cheapo char griller GRILL which I paid less than $100. 😱
Thanks for the kind words. I would imagine it would be closer to 90 minutes to reach that 165 internal :)
The chicken looks Awsome!
Thank you!
Looks delicious
All This FOOD Looks So Damm God THAT I NEED SOME!! NOW NOW NOW!!!!
I love it!!!
Ok Ry, I am making this right now. Yesterday the ribs I made after watching your vid turned out wonderfully! My question for you today is: Why do you remove the chicken at 165 instead of about 158? I thought the temperature would rise to the perfect temperature while resting.
It's just personal preference. Also, with poultry, unless it's a big bird, I tend to not count on much carryover increase :)
Cooking With Ry thank you!
My simple rule of thumb is that the butt end always goes toward the heat since it cooks the slowest. I’m not sure how true it is, but it always seems to work. Awesome video, but I hate watching because they always make me so hungry! 😆
That looks amazing! I bet it tastes just as good. I wonder if I could use my searzal to get the skin nice and crispy without drying the chicken
my kind of cook nothing fancy just a webber kettle and nothing else needed!
it is some snow outside ,but have not had any bbq in close to 4 mnds ,so i did fire up the weber a big chicken is ready for some light smoking /bbq
Nice! 4 months is a long time without some que :)
@@CookingWithRy had to finish it inside to get the temp right , it was cold outside ,but i capture the bbq flavor and smoke ..and did not use enoug coals for winter cooking
@@gardini100 Winter cooking can be tough :)
@@CookingWithRy but it was fun and i bet my neigbours tought i was crazy hehe
Great video. No big production on the chicken. Wish the screen is scratch and sniff😂
Looks great Ry, I am going to try it this coming weekend. Was that a 22" Weber?
Yes, 22 inch :)
Cut the chicken down the middle of the backbone io keep the chicken from falling apart when they get tender. I also rest the chicken in a oven or Ziploc bag in a heated cooler for 30 mins to give the heat and juices a change to redistribute.
Very good. Do you have a favorite brand of chicken to use?
Not really. I just look for fresh and reasonably priced.
perfecto brother!! I thought I had beeen wrong all these years!!!
You should use wood charcoal. Its a lot better flavor quality, burn wise, and a natural solution for awesome grilling. Check out different ones available such as B&B.
I’ve tried them all and over 40 years of grilling have found not a lot of difference for the price.
I see you are over 12000 sub's... Good for you.
Thanks! I just noticed that today :)
👍That's my favorite way to do chicken to it just seems to taste different
I agree. It always turn out so tender and juicy like this :)
How long it took in total. And once you mentioned not using accessories. Im a little bit concerned about making brisket but i dont have. Any of the accessories. Do I really need it or it could happen without them. Thx man I loved the simplicity of the method you made it look way easier
I'm not sure about the time since for chicken I focus on the temperature. That's the best guide for poultry. You could do a brisket on the kettle without accessories, but having at least a briquette basket and a hinged grate for the kettle will make it much simpler to do :)
How much time overall for this cooking
I like to cook hot and fast. Do you feel a slow n sear is necessary or can you cook good bbq without it? Thanks
You can cook great without it. It’s just a tool to help.
Soo yum 😭😭😭
When cutting the chicken in half, do you split the breast plate in half and leave it in the bird while grilling? Or do you remove the complete breast plate before you put the chicken on the grill?
Honestly, if I’m feeling kinda lazy, I just leave it 😊
Do you have a book out on how to grill with a kettle
No.
Hi Ry, how come you didn’t throw a wood chunk on the coals? Great video, cheers Jonathon
Decided to not smoke this time. Just plain old indirect :)
If you were going to add wood chunks, would apple be a good choice?
Do you do any vegetable recipes for the bbq
I do from time to time: th-cam.com/video/edzvCdFiGIU/w-d-xo.html :)
Nice chickens! I'm getting jealous about the sauces lol
They are so good :)
...and I can't get any ...bummer
Great vid. I'm interested in where the probe was placed to measure the grill temperature - I couldn't make it out. And would you advise having the lid thermometer over the coals as in this video? Or was it there just because it's good to have the vents over the chicken? Advice appreciated!
I just try to get the ambient probe somewhere between the edge of the coals and the far side of the kettle, but close to the side. And I generally try to keep the vents over the food :)
How long does it take on average to cook
Great video! I hate to ask this but I’m still new to smoking on the kettle. With the coal setup that you had, where did you leave your top and bottom vents to obtain the roughly 350° and remain there?
Often I'll start with the bottom about half open, and the top fully open, and adjust from there to dial in the temp :)
I dont have an instant read thermometer, but a 6 probe Ink Bird Thermometer. Why did your probe and instant read show different temp by almost 10-15 degrees? How can I make sure it is always safe to eat using only a single thermometer?
Different parts of the chicken will often register different temps, and you can also just hit the wrong spot sometimes--too shallow or too deep. For chicken I'm usually happy when the thighs are at 165 F :)
@@CookingWithRy thank you for your response.
Perfect Ry!!!!
Thanks!
I may have missed it and I don’t see it in your Amazon list, but can you tell us what type of light are you’re using?
Are you talking about lights for filming?
Ry Really Really Like
Really?
Gotta have crispy skin on my chicken, but that color is on point.
thigh ends always facing the coals. imo. looks great Ry!
