    Great video. Quick question, what are your reasons for using lump charcoal vs briquettes?

    • @Searedandsmoked
      @Searedandsmoked  6 років тому

      JORGE Bertran I generally like it better as it’s a more natural product and for performance reasons too. It generates way less ash and i never have problems staying lit during low and slow cooks. For something like this, you are fine using lump or briquettes.

    Very informative video. Why do you not oil he skin prior to seasoning?

    • @Searedandsmoked
      @Searedandsmoked  4 роки тому

      I've never felt the need. The rub sticks just fine with out it. I find a well rinsed, dried, and rubbed chicken will get crispy with out the oil.

  • @dicklaurey9429
    @dicklaurey9429 5 років тому

    Nice chicken video. Everyone has comments on how to crisp the chicken skin. I never thought of just placing them on the grill for a few minutes! How easy is that! Do you cook the hooked chicken for the suggested 2 hrs.?

    • @Searedandsmoked
      @Searedandsmoked  5 років тому

      Dick Laurey so, i monitor the temperature of the smoker and the “look” of the chicken. my ideal temperature is around 350 for the smoker. if i’m around that, then it’s about 90 minutes for me. i modified my pbc to allow more temp control with a damper, so its easy to raise the temp if needed. i have a video on that too if you check out my channel

      That is from a Miracle Blade set.... you can buy the set on Amazon with this affiliate link amzn.to/3aJc4zL To their credit, they do stay sharp... I've had them for almost 16 years.

    Why did you elect to cook them at such high temp instead of the normal PBC 275-ish?

    • @Searedandsmoked
      @Searedandsmoked  5 років тому

      Michael Nelson I just think it makes the skin a little more crispy... no other reason

      @@MrViking1969 If you have a temp probe in there, start by opening your bottom vent all the way and see how it reacts. if you need to bump it up more...then crack the lid. Then you can remove the lid all together at the end to finish.

    Can you explain why you don't like ribs on a PBC ?

    • @Searedandsmoked
      @Searedandsmoked  5 років тому

      If I said I don't like them, that was definitely an over reaction... I do like them on the PBC, but I still like them better on my green egg. However, I do like how you can smoker ribs on the PBC in about 3.5 hours with out wrapping. That is usually the time I am shooting for. Any particular method you love on the PBC? Thanks for checking out the channel.. Keegan

      PBC excels at cooking poultry but I have other smokers that do a better job at ribs.

    Great video. Is there any benefits to the pit verses the WSM? Can the WSM do pretty much the same? Pit was sold by Tesco but now 'unavailable', Thanks

    • @Searedandsmoked
      @Searedandsmoked  6 років тому +1

      I think the main difference is the Pit Barrel is designed to be used without a water pan and comes with the ability to hang meat as well. They both do a great job and are a similar price. I purchased the Pit Barrel because I like the simplicity of the design and the versatility of it, and it can hold a lot of food. I was looking for something that could hold a bunch of ribs... this can do 8 racks right out of the box. Have a good one! -Keegan
