Better late than never

by zydecopaws on October 11, 2009

I committed a cardinal sin yesterday, at least as it relates to my blogging processes. I cooked outdoors, took pictures, then got distracted last night and didn’t post an update. So the Bubba Keg pros and cons post is just going to have to wait.

Yesterday was a beautiful day at the lake. Even the dog was interested in what was on the grill.

What was on the grill was spatchcock chicken (that tasted like chicken instead of bacon), baked potatoes (in the foil with butter, salt, and pepper), and green beans with onions (in the bean pot, of course).

The finished product was partly responsible for the lateness of the post. I ate so much of it that it was hard to stay awake after dinner.

For those of you that keep coming back for the Bubba Keg review, stay tuned; I suspect it will happen either later today or tomorrow…

That bird looks divine! The skin looks nice and crispy. What kind of seasonings did you use on it?

Both sides were sprinkled with crushed sage, dried basil, granulated garlic, and some ground pepper while sitting in a mixture of white wine, a dash of soy sauce, and some apple juice. The chicken was cooked cut side down for the first half of the cook, and the remainder of the marinade was poured over the chicken when it was turned over for the remainder of the cook.

The chicken got turned over again for the picture above, so some of the juices ran off, but it was still plenty juicy and flavorful when it came time to eat.

No rush on the post… But that bird looks terrific. Something about a grilled chicken… beauty
