Thanks for keeping it simple! Too many other TH-cam videos add complexity such as brining, rubs, spraying, etc. For those of us who "occasionally" use the Weber, all we need is basic preparation, how to position the coals, vent settings, approximate cook times and temperature measured the old-fashioned way! Much appreciated!
Glad it was helpful! Cheers Christopher!
Completely agree. I just need to know the proper techniques on how to not overdue my chicken. I'll season or marinate it however I like. I just don't want a burnt bird. Usa
point the legs towards the heat source and leave it that way. the legs/thighs need more heat then the breast, and can handle it without drying out.
I cooked my first BBQ spatchcock chicken today and wow it was fantastic! Great advice! Thanks
Good to hear! It's one of my favorite things to grill for sure. Cheers!
I found your receipts very friendly for grill newbies - please add more!
Will do. Cheers!
Now that's how to cook a bird. I haven't grilled a spatchcocked chicken for quite a while, and all those long and complicated recipes I've been using on grilled or BBQ chicken have distracted me from appreciating the flavor that a skin-on, bone-in whole bird can have with just a few basic spices and a little smoke. I've got to do a spatchcocked chicken today. And I can't wait to smell and taste the chicken without getting lost in the sauce, or hidden under exotic spices. Thank you sir, for taking me back in time.
Right on Pete. I think I may have to throw a spatchcock chicken on the grill tonight as well. Cheers!
2:00 upside down weber basket...huh. That's actually darn affective. Nice one.
I made that trick up I think. Works great and I don't need to spend money on a SNS.
Looking good sir. Ok,the great thing about bbq is there are so many ways to make great food. With chicken either butterfly or in pieces I like to start skin side down first then flip about 2/3 way through and here's why. I feel by going skin side down first your keeping most of the rendered fats with the chicken helping to keep it moist. Basically self baisting. The reason I flip at about 2/3 ways through is to eventually letting the rendered fats to escape the skin and allow the skin to crisp up. Second thing I like to do is put a water pan under the chicken to keep things moist most of the cook but more importantly catch all that wonderful drippings to make a sauce or gravy. Hate to waist great flavor. I think I'll fire up the new IVS this afternoon and do a couple of chickens. One with lots of fresh chopped rosemary with olive oil binder and maybe one like you did. So I have done a couple of cooks on the new smoker. It's going to be awhile before my WSM'S or offset gets used but I will always make sure to do some grilling on the webber kettle. So much for keeping it short right? What the hell, today is my birthday so I'm going to live a little. 😄🐓🍹
I may have finally convinced my wife into letting me get a Big Green Egg. Lol! Not sure if I want that, a Kamado Joe or the new Weber Kamado. Will definitely be investing this summer. Your birthday's on Cinco De Mayo! I'll drink a margarita tonight in your honor. Happy birthday, sir!
@@GallaghersGrub thanks for the happy birthday. Another Kamodo to consider is the Slow and Sear Kamado. Its the same size as a Webber kettle so all accessories will work in it also and after all the reviews of all the Kamado's that I have seen it just always came out on top. Send a email to Justin from Babyback Maniac and ask him what he thinks. But congratulations on convincing the wife. You probably already know this but just in case, keep the kettle. My grandfather introduced me to kamado's a little over 50 years ago and they are fantastic. But not worth the time wise for grilling. It takes to long to get up to temperature compared to the kettle. The modern Kamado is so much easier then the ones from long ago. My grandfather got his by knowing a airmen in the Airforce who picked him up one from Japan and flew it back to the states. My youngest brother has it and I'm trying to convince him to give it to me so it gets used ( he uses his original first model Traeger). Anyway good luck with making your decision on what one to get. 😃👍🔥⛩
Nicely done! I thought I knew most things charcoal/kettle/smoker..what have you, then you turn the charcoal basket upside down as blocker. Genius my friend! You've changed my world ;)
Lol! I think I'm the only one who does that. And I hate to brag, but yes, it's friggin' genius.
Fantastic job on that chicken. With beef prices so high, I have been eating a lot more chicken!
Two great advantages of spatchcocking is the ability to season the chicken better and very easy carving.
(I have never seen a chicken spatchcocked for sale. I hope to see some in SW Louisiana someday.)
Yeah, they sell them packaged and pre-spatchcocked here at Whole Foods. It's a no-brainer. Cheers Rick!
It's cheaper to just get the whole chicken from what I've seen. Plus save a few spines in the freezer for a good stock later.
I have never tried to cook a chicken this way. I will definitely put it on my list; it looked delicious.
You should! Watch my Weber Q spatchcock chicken video to see how to butcher it. Really easy and great results.
@@GallaghersGrub I went back and watched the video on how to spatchcock the chicken.
You made it look super easy. 👍
Just cooked 2 of them on my Weber. Came out moist, tender, juicy! Oh yeah!
how long did you cook them for? cheers
Nice idea on the upside down basket! Only thing I add is a tray to catch the drippinngs and roast some veges in there
Great video. I feel the only way to cook chicken is spatchcocked. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Bill. I love it this way as well. This chicken was good!
Great video!! Spatchcock is my favorite way to cook chicken and always on my Weber!
Pretty hard to disagree with that. Perfect results every time. Cheers!
We plan to make this tonight, weather permitting❤. Using Sazon Tropical marinade and Sazon Tropical seasoning
The food allways looks fantastic when you grill it on your weber ;)) I must grill this weekend ;)) Greetings from Denmark.. ;)
Thanks as always Henning.
@@GallaghersGrub You are very welcome ;)) Love your videos! Whoops forgot..... GET IN MY BELLY... KEEP ON GRILLI'N ;))
Great video, i love your view. Im making the same chicken tonight. Thank you for the tips.
Right on! I’ve currently got some ribs smoking away. Cheers!
Looking forward to hit my Weber kettle in back order 👍👍
Great job on the chicken! It looked great and much have tasted excellent! Hope your furry family-member got a bite of the chicken! Now, I look forward to getting the kettle out for the summer season! Best wishes to you, and the Mrs. Cheers to everyone in the family! 🌅🍺😀
Lol! My wife always slips some bites to the dog. Can't wait to make my first ribs of the season. Cheers Bill!
@@GallaghersGrub Looking forward to the vlog! Best wishes for a great grilling season! 🍗🥩🥃
Made this today - first time I ever attempted grilling a whole chicken or butterflying/spatchcocking a chicken, and even though I forgot to take out the breast bones, this turned out AMAZING!! At the 45 min mark when I opened the grill the first time, I thought about moving it to the oven because it looked so crispy already, but the temp came in at 150 so I decided to turn it and give it about 20 more minutes. I let it rest for about 10 min covered and held my breath when I cut into it…SOOOOOO juicy and the skin was crispy! Good tip on the herbs de provence! So delicious! Thank you for straightforward instructions!
Great to hear! Cooking a whole chicken like this is one of the great pleasures of life. Lol! Kind of joking, but kind of not. And yeah, herbs de provence is the best! Cheers!
This is my favorite way to do a whole chicken. Thanks for the video! Also, same microphone, same grill, same starter, same hoodie... are we the same person?
Lol! Great minds think alike. Cheers Desta!
Weather a bit better this week then! This has made me crave grilled chicken now and it’s 11pm here! 😂. Looked really delicious.
Looking forward to your summer grills too. Hope all is good over there
Weather is getting better by the day. Back in the city now, but hoping to get up to the cottage again in another week. Grilling season is here!!!
Hey Brother very good cook. I'm going to try this recipe. Thanks again!
You won't be disappointed. Cheers Mike!
Looks so yum 😋. I just purchased the Weber Q 2200 gas grill. Will be learning the ropes of gas grilling thanks to you and your channel. Hope this technique works well with my new gas grill too
Enjoy your new Q. My advice would be to get a roasting rack. You can put two layers of tin foil under the roasting rack and roast just about anything. Cheers!
Gas grilling? The whole point of bbq is the flavour surely? Might aswell just cook using your regular kitchen hobs
Excellent recipe. Thank you!!!
Thank you. Cheers!
Use a 22" hot water heater overflow pan to soak your grill grate in soapy water then use a stainless steel pad to clean your grate. Flip the grate over and clean the others side. Rinse and repeat if necessary. Stainless steel pads will bring back your grates like new.
Interesting. Thanks for the tip. Cheers Noogman!
Spot on mate and have to try 🇬🇧
Definitely. Cheers Stuart!
Looking good bro
Dog:"hey! I smell that!"
Great video. The chicken looks very delicious.
It was! Chicken on the Weber Kettle is about as good as it gets. And really easy when butterflied like this. Cheers Frank!
So temperature doesn't matter? I've found that some folks do not like a heavy smoke flavor, so I leave the top vent wide open and control temp with the bottom vent, using the top to mostly control smoke levels.
I cook whole chickens at 375-400 degrees F.
Looks good great Job!!!
Great job, my friend
Thanks Dee. Hope all is well in Germany. Prost!
@@GallaghersGrub
The situation in Germany is a bit chaotic. But well, what can you do.
I recently had a surgery. A stone in the right kidney. Was no fun lately.
Kids are great and lots of work in our garden.
I bought a pizza oven for the kettle. That thing looks like an UFO. Hahaha, but works great. Video will be uploaded soon
Hopefully you’re fine as well and things are going back to normal.
Dearest regards from Germany
Dee
I use kitchen scissors. If that’s impossible; you have a big, French-knife. Just take any chicken you like, and cut beside the spine from tail to neck. Open, (crack some ribs if need be) and voila: Spatchcock. Good recipe. Thanks for the vid;)
I always use scissors as well. I feel it's much easier than a knife. Whole Foods now sells them already spatchcocked, so there's almost no need to butterfly them yourself now.
@@GallaghersGrub yeah, but I’m sure they charge more…
Looks amazing! I'm going to try this out tonight. What kind of knife are you using to cut it? Looks nice and sharp!
Thank you. Grilling a chicken like this is great. The knife though is nothing special. I think it's from walmart, but just looks nice.
pretty bird !
Thanks cj. Appreciate you watching.
That chicken looks amazing. Last April i did a whole chicken on the weber kettle and it was delicious same seasons as yours it was very moist and juicy. i have to ask were did you get that knife? i like to get one.
The knife is actually from a fairly inexpensive set that we picked up at Century 21. Cheers!
When using 2 baskets separated with one on each side, do you know what size aluminum pan could be used to "fill up" the center either as a drip pan or water pan? Great video!!
Save some for the doggo :) Good video!
Thanks Robert. The dog always seems to get a little something.
Yeah man you cant beat the kettle !!!!! Check out the Vortex for the Weber when you can
I'd love to try the Vortex. May pick one up this summer, but have a ton of other items on the list too. Cheers Mark!
@@GallaghersGrub You can do some of the best wings with it !!!! Cheers as well .....
I love to do my chicken on the rotisserie spit 👌
Great point! I haven't tried a rotisserie yet and definitely have one on my short list of things to buy this summer. Thanks Mike.
Great video. Im new to charcoal grilling. During the cooking, what temp did you keep your grill going at?
When I cook a whole chicken I shoot for about 375º Fahrenheit.
What temp would you run it at?
Hey there! Do you by any.chance have a video for beginners on proper handling and safety precautions using small propane containers for the Weber Q series ? Cheers
I don't. There is typically a label on the sides of the containers with warning and storage instructions. Hope this helps.
@@GallaghersGrub thx cheers!
What temperature should the BBQ be before you place the chicken in?
375 degrees F
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Sheila. Cheers!
I don’t think he ever said what temp he is smoking at. 😊
I cook whole chickens at 375º F.
#Weber4Life 🔥🐔♥️
Right on Rando! Cheers sir!
Yummmmm🎉🥰🥰🥰
bro im not paying for a product to start the charcoal when i can use free newspaper
Newspaper tends to smoke out the neighbors. But I use it too sometimes.
No woman No worries, LoL,
No woman, no cry. No?
Lol how's the chicken with the fork
Pretty good. Thanks for watching, Johnny.
Crack that 🍺 nice ... show and tell on that beer huh
Forgot my customary beer check. Lol! Next time for sure. Cheers Grant!
Don’t feed the dog …
No sides.
No SAUCE on the side 😢
Believe me, the doggo gets plenty of human food.
nice presentation but that yard bird needs a few more minutes gonna get someone or yourself if its not temped correctly
165 F is the perfect temp for chicken. I've cooked hundreds and never gotten sick once. But thanks, pro.
All that time and money spent on getting your grill right...only to cook a pre spatchcocked bird?!
lmao!!!
Enjoy that Bud Light, chef!
😂
I already have a video on how to spatchcock a chicken. Thanks for watching. th-cam.com/video/zVEyGjeYlxg/w-d-xo.html
