Fire, Meat, salt. Sometimes less really  is more.

Hey deepsouth. Next time try your spatchcock with the cut up the breast along the keel bone. Flip it over then open it cut side dwon on the cutting surface. Press hard so it lays flat even if you have to break a few bones to get it that way. Then start it on the grill cut side down. This places the breat meat in a better position under the thighs and wings the juice and fat from those more flavorful parts keeps the breast moist and tasty. Works awesome. Then cook for 2 thirds of the time this way. Try to get it to slow roast over the coals Till it is mostly cooked through. Then raise the grill a little higher off of the coals and flip it over let it cook the last third skin side down till the skin gets crisp. get it cooking over the flames slow enogh on the skin side and it gets like fried chicken. Real crispy.
Beer, its whats for dinner.

i thought the bird layed open pretty easy.  i guess it does that if you cut it along the wrong side.  thanks for the tip.

Yeah it take a little more pressure to get it to lay flat when you cut it on the breast side. I have had great results with it this way instead of cut up the spine.

Works great for turkey too case with the breast under the legs and wings the otherwise hard to keep juicy breast is under the wings and thigh.

We are doing a fresh killed turkey spachcocked this way on the parillia grill this year. I cant wait, I love Turkey Day.

Nothing says Thanks Giving better than BBQ.

Im not sure? What kinds are there? I saw though that they have really big white ones and then they have these little black ones that look like wild turkeys. Are they wild turkeys?

We have Bourbon Reds,(what else). Look for a "heritage" turkey on of the breeds from the early 20 century. The big white ones are the butter balls. Just ask if they can naturaly reproduce. The butterballs can't. there are small whites that can and they taste the best. The name to look for are midget white, beltsville.

Ok, I smoked some more cheese today.  Tillamook cheddar, hickory smoked.  Ambient temp varied from 59-69F during the smoke, ~7 hours.

After letting the cheese rest for 10 days, we tried it today.  It definitely has a more intense smoke flavor than the last batch, but it still isn't as intense as I'd like it to be.  Maybe I should have eaten it a little fresher rather than letting it rest.  Next time.

It has been stored in the fridge wrapped in plastic wrap and foil.  The appearance changed a bit from when they were right off the grill, the moisture was more evenly distributed again, the slightly crusted look had disappeared.

I'll do a cherry wood batch this week.

Looks like they took on a bit more color this time.
