James, as usual, your food looks unbelievably DELICIOUS! Great cook and thanks for the little tidbits you give to your subscribers! I learn something every time I watch ✌🏾
Looks good. I'm actually cooking a chicken on my PBC right now. But i decided to use the hooks. As I speak the outside temp is 200 and the breast temp is 105. I inserted temp probs through the holes for the rebar. When it's just about done I'm going to take it off and put some bbq sauce on the chicken. I didn't do any kind of an injection. I've been watching all kinds of videos for the PBC. All of them seemed very helpful. Haven't had much of a chance to use my PBC. I bought it for myself at Christmas. But now with the Corina virus happening I have all the time in the world, and today the weather seems just right for it.
I guess, once a competition cook, always a competition cook. And why not, if you know how, go ahead and take a few extra minutes, to make it the best possible, right?? Good butchering demo. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing. 😎.
Loved the video; heading to La. for a 1st time BCA event. We use a Pit Barrel for SCA competitions. Never done a 1/2 chicken. 1st check was 40 minutes; glaze was 5 but app. what was total. btw. I am a grate guy too!
erobin2112 Yeah, I kinda misspoke on that one but hopefully people understand what I was getting at. Unlike the breast meat, the wing usually doesn’t come out as dry.
James, great video. You commented about pinning down the skin so it will not draw back during the smoke. I noted in the video you used what looked like a curved stainless steel "needle-like" skewer. Can you describe what you actually used? Thanks, Tom
Liked your video, but wanted to correct you about the wing. Both the flat and drumettes are concidered white meat. But love your video and will try that injection.
Scott Cupp Yeah, I kinda misspoke on that one but hopefully people understand what I was getting at. Unlike the breast meat, the wing usually doesn’t come out as dry.
Good idea about the cardboard . I just got a whole chicken myself. I'm going to do jack and coke with a lemon pepper peach bbq rub. I'll be using my Rose Red Weber kettle. It all depends if its going to be windy here. Lol have a great day.
Nice UA-cam video to start my day. I am cooking a chicken on the WSM today. Couple of questions. What brand of scissors are you using? Why did you trim all the fat off the chicken?
95SLE The scissors I use are the DEXTER brand scissors. I trim the fat because I don’t want that to be something I eat. Most of the fat I trimmed off will not render out.
@@CentralTexasGrilling I ordered the scissors on Amazon. I was looking for a decent pair of scissors and Dexter brand looks like it is up to the task of a chicken. Another product question: Who make the food prep tray you use?
Awesome cook ! Question any idea why smoked meats seem to have a stronger smoked flavor the next day after leftovers have sat in the fridge over night?
You know, I've notice the same thing. When you smoke something the smoke acts as a preservative to help meats last longer. I think the longer it sits the more time that smoke has time to set in.
what's really happening is you are "numb" to smoke flavor and the smell as you have been around it day. When you step away from it, and come back to it, your senses pick it up
Brother James, I don't think I've ever seen chicken that juicy? I need to get me some of that Chupacabra Chicken rub!!! Great looking cook brother. Cheers to ya!!
thank you for a good chicken cook vid.i've been remiss in cooking at least leg quarters from the cheapo but goodie bag at the market,or of course whole bird when its on sale.This nails the rare art of roasting a chicken perfectly,leg meat cooked through,yet breast perfectly juicy and with the better grain or texture that only is found in a narrow temp range.saludos from Cali as usual,i'm sharing this on my FB since it is so solid a technique.
Watched! Liked! Even watched the ad for ya! Small way to say thanks for great content. Every little bit helps. Great looking bird, and I love the sauce bottle instead of brush tip! Makes great sense. Smoke on 👉💨 -Jonathan
Thanks for letting him know. @Eating with CT life, you can find it on their website. I love mine and think you would love one too. It makes killer ribs too.
I made them myself. That’s one of my BBQ secrets. I’m actually thinking about doing a video series where I give out some of my secrets and tips. Stay tuned😉
Those chickens turned out awesome Brother James .. Juicy most and great color .. That is one way I havent cooked chicken before is halfs like that .... Great cook
James.. I have the ingredients to do the cheesy spaghetti on Saturday and now I am wanting to do chicken on my pit barrel cooker....... geez. Take a day off, Brother!
I think you play with your chicken way too much. :) I use the Chupacabra brisket and general purpose rubs (best I've tried so far) ... Ill have to look for the cluckalicous version.
Hi James thanks for showing how trim up Chicken I've learned a lot my only problem is I've never saw any store bought injection marinade sold in Trinidad so I don't know if you have a homemade marinade that use if so could you msg me on Instagram redman.stephen thanks very much .

@15:24 you can see the leg bone is bloody when he separates the leg and thigh. Way to go champ
Clay Cobb Don’t suck on the bone and you’ll be ok...champ.

@@CentralTexasGrilling Do you have an approximate time line?
Another great video Mr. James
Liked and subscribed 🐓👍🐓Mahalo and Aloha 🌺🤙🌺
Hey I'm finally back! Good video. Looks great!
Becky Hines Hi Becky! Glad to have you back. Hope you’re doing well.
That looks great, I can’t believe you’ve only been cooking for a year or two....
About 5 actually
Just messin dude!
Love the video james...excellent as always. One question...since when is the wing dark meat? Did I miss something?
erobin2112 Yeah, I kinda misspoke on that one but hopefully people understand what I was getting at. Unlike the breast meat, the wing usually doesn’t come out as dry.
Yeah,that looked like some juicy chicken.
Hey brother these chickens looked great! The wings is white brother. Great video!
Rich's River Smokers West Virginia Yeah, I mentioned in another comment that I misspoke when tasting the wing. Thanks for stopping by brotha.
So james, you are not going to do too much trimmin. Problem is you always want to do it to a high standard, which you always do. Looks great. Cheers.
That is true, but sometimes less isn't a bad thing.
James, great video. You commented about pinning down the skin so it will not draw back during the smoke. I noted in the video you used what looked like a curved stainless steel "needle-like" skewer. Can you describe what you actually used? Thanks, Tom
I use a metal whisk. I'm planning on making a video showing how I make them.
@@CentralTexasGrilling That would be super! Standing by! BTW, I am making your enchiladas next week!

Another Great Video Brother!!!!!!! I had a quick question? How long can I refrigerate my chicken after I inject it?
Mr FSU I wouldn’t go more than 24hrs personally.
Alright was ready for this great video brother James 👍👍👍
Great my friend
I've only hung my chicken halves on the PBC. Will try this method next time. What sauce did you use?

Harry soo, chicken rub is good also..great video james.
You're like a surgeon with that chicken, James! I like the idea of cooking it on a rack
Appreciate that brotha!
Oh yeah good stuff right there. How was the skin? I know it can be tough to get the skin right.
The skin was actually pretty good. Not as rubbery as they normally can be.
That chicken looked so good I could almost taste it. Great video James. Love your videos brother
my man, that looks delicious !!!
"GOOD GOSH OH MIGHTY"!!!!!
Love this video from the start to the end....
MAN - O - MAN!!!! " Super Lookin Yard Birds " Brotha James . I Read if you watch the adds that go along with the video it helps you !!!! ???
Honestly, I'm not sure how it all works. I don't ever expect anyone to watch all the ads if they can skip them.
I love those scissors they work great for me..
Damn good looking yard bird brotha... Yummm!👍👍
Great looking chicken James. I'd love to have a taste-o-that. That PBC comes thru again.
That sure made my mouth is watering man that's what you call juicy and delicious awesome job again from Harlingen TX
Dayum James! Did you use that Tim Bucks?
What we need is AromaTube!
Wow great looking chicken, good job!
Have you ever cooked chicken on your PBS for competition?
Not chicken but I have done ribs. I need a little more room for the number of chickens I do.
That's a good looking bird James. I like Tony's injection, the rubs sound good. Awesome job brother!
Like#21. Now, ready to watch
James.. I have the ingredients to do the cheesy spaghetti on Saturday and now I am wanting to do chicken on my pit barrel cooker....... geez. Take a day off, Brother!
You waste a lot of time trying to use those scissors!
That one Sexy looking yard bird!
I think you play with your chicken way too much. :)
I use the Chupacabra brisket and general purpose rubs (best I've tried so far) ... Ill have to look for the cluckalicous version.
I can't help but play with my meat ;-)
Bomb.com brother!
Good video
Chicken is the worse meat for me to bbq never satisfied with it.
Maybe this will help me
That chicken breast came out juicy brotha James. The injection came out good. Good cook brotha!
Looks great! That PBC cooks everything perfectly. I've hung 4 whole chickens at once in my cooker and they all cooked up just like yours.
James,you mind mailing me the chicken legs? lol
