    I would venture to guess that you are cooking it close to the coals and the radiant heat is crisping the skin while the conductive heat is not too hot to get the meat dry. But I will just say....good for you.

    Some people saying we might not get Kelly because UF wants to micro manage too much to ensure compliance and Kelly doesn't want that much going on. Not sure if BS or not but he is known for wanting full control pretty much.

    I use an electric smoker. No water pan on chicken. Been doing this for fifteen years, tried every variation under the sun. Low and slow for full birds

    Birds smoke best in the 290F-310F range.

    You can get crispy chicken at 250, just need good air flow

    Right now I would say...use you imagination. It is a pretty good bet that it has been discussed.


    Well except for left handed lesbians. Aw crap, now it has.

    There are always faces, they are just unknown.

    Half the fun my brother. Turn that frown upside down. That’s what I said to Gatorgrl the other day. There is a joke in there somewhere. If we dig enough we’ll find it.

    The only thing this thread was missing was a Lady Gator toying with us. @icequeen got it going but clearly @gatorgrl has the baton.

    Another rumor is that we are "expanding" our search.

    I met a left handed lesbian once. I thought everything was going all right but the night took a left turn.

    The main difference between smoking and roasting is the heat source and after flavor - your method uses an oven (electricity/gas/whatever), mine uses a combo of wood and charcoal. Temperatures are the same-ish and the result is similar. I just like the extra level of flavor smoke gives.

    You’re wrong on temp but right on wood. I’m an apple wood guy myself. And I don’t use much - looking for a hint of smoke on the skin, not a smoked out breast that tastes like an ash tray.

    I’m guessing he would get FULL contorol as not only a command but as a desire.
