A few things when doing these "teaching classes"...There was no was no details on how high the grill was set. Was the grill set indirect? direct? what temp? how long? these vids are rushed imo. Nice tip to save the wings, i generally pin them down with tooth picks but this works well. When doing a beer can chicken I set my oval at around 330-350 with the coals on the left with a firebox divider with no grates so I can throw in wood chips. No heat deflector on the right with standard rack on the right. A two-three pound bird should take around an hour half with a good crispy shell on the outside.
+Laree Draper They are disposable nitrile gloves. They may provide some heat protection, but not as good as a glove made for handling hot items off the grill.
Cutting the tail off is a good idea...its just fat anyways...but cutting the neck off is a bad idea when making a beer can chicken..it's better to bend the neck down and press it into the cavity, then stretch the Breast Skin over the cavity and neck bone, and pin it there with some toothpicks....this creates a "seal" that helps lock in moisture, stretches the skin to make it more crunchy, and makes an overall better chicken....don't forget to remove the toothpicks
Kamado Joe will come with a lot of accessories which can offset the price of the Primo Kamado either one is a great investment . Every company will tell you theirs is the Best . Just like car manufacturers . BGE , Kamado Joe and Primo are really good Kamado grills ; try to get one on sale with the accessories you need , the extras can cost over , $500.00 easy .

Great quick video!
What gloves are these? They seem somewhat heat resistant. Thank you.

Thanks!
+Laree Draper The name is "Black Mamba" and I really like the gloves.
You showed no information on how to set up the coals and the dual sided smoker. Big miss in this video.
Byram, I agree. Check out our How To video on low temperature cooking. It is the same set up.
This is because Two-Zone cooking is covered in one of the other videos. th-cam.com/video/oSgu8EmpEfE/w-d-xo.html
Nor the temp

That makes sense. I tend to bend the neck down or stick a carrot in the cavity. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. A little lacking in detail. Also a little shocked to see you touch just about every surface with raw chicken on his gloves.
I want to buy a new primo but the lack of good information online makes me consider a KJ. This guy is not the right person to "show" a cook.
