What's this?

Yes....I use a couple different variations but the basic plan is the same

1) split the bird...like a spatchcock on steroids. remove the backbone and then split right down the middle of the breast. You get two halves.

2) brine. I normally use either an applejuice brine, or a beer brine. I think my favorite is the beer brine using Sam Adams Cherry Wheat, and then using cherry wood for the smoke.

I'll see if I can track down a couple of pictures...

Do you add anything else other than the beer for the beer brine? ** -- BTHokie 11/19/2020 2:13PM
