Recipe Information

Ingredients:

SmokingPit.com - Great smoking recipes tips techiques smoker and grilling information. Traeger Texas Pellet Grills.


Poultry & Rub

2 Yard Birds (Chickens)
Jacks Stack All Purpose Rub
Order Securely Online

Brine

1/2 package Mad Hunky Meats Poultry Rub
Order Securely Online
8 Cups water

Garlic Butter Mix
1 Stick  butter
3 Cloves chopped garlic
1 tsp Fiorellas Jack Stack Barbecue Rub

 
 

Preparation:

The brine used in the recipe is simply amazing. i highly recommend ordering the seasonings I used and following this recipe to the word for the 1st time. it will amaze you.

For those of you who love for tender juicy chicken, this recipe will do it for you! The "Mad Hunky Poultry brine used in this recipe is the best brine I have tried for poultry. Do not deviate from this brine. It can be ordered securely online at the URL above. Its well worth it I promise!

Start out by rinsing 2 chickens. Cut off all excessive skin or fatty tissue and pat drying them with paper towels.

Mix the following in a bowl: 

1 Stick  butter
3 Cloves chopped garlic
1 tsp Fiorellas Jack Stack Barbecue Rub

 This will make enough flavor for rubbing under the skins and on top of the skins of both Yard Birds.

Mix 1/2 package of Mad Hunky Poultry Brine with 8 cups water. Separate the mixture into two 1 gallon Ziploc bags. Place one chicken in each Ziploc bag. Place in refrigerator for 6 hours turning several times during the brining process.

After 6 hours of brining, take the chicken out of the brine and thoroughly rinse the chicken. Place the chicken on a cutting board or cookie sheet. Using a sharp knife or poultry scissors cut along the sides of the chicken spine. Push the knife through the ribs cutting from the front to the back of the chicken. When you near the leg make sure to cut in between the leg joint as it will be easier. Do this on both sides of the spine and the spine will remove. Clean out any guts and rinse the chicken.

Lay chicken breast side up and place your palm on the breasts and push down to break the breast bone. This will allow the entire chicken to lat flat on the grill. You have now spatchcocked a chicken!

Mix 1 cube softened butter with 1 1/2 cloves chopped garlic and 1 tsp Jack Stack rub. Spoon 1/2 of the butter mix under the skins of both chickens/ Make sure you coat the breasts, thighs and the legs underneath the skin. Rub the remaining butter on the outside of the chickens. Rub on 1 1/2 cloves chopped garlic and shake on some Jack Stack rub to taste.

Place chicken in a pellet smoker preheated to 180 degrees or 225 for a wood pit. If using a pellet smoker smoke @ 180 for 1 hour then increase the temp to 225. When chicken reaches 155 degrees, increase temp to 280 degrees. This will allow the skin to adequately brown.

Pull chicken when the internal temperature of the breasts and thighs reach 168 - 170 degrees. Let cool a bit and serve. this recipe is amazing! Serve with taters cornbread and beans with cold beer.
