Reply to "Big Chicken Cook Comin Up!!!!"

Yes, 70 pounds of chicken for 20 bucks: benefits of living close to NW Arkansas the yardbird capital of the world.

Yes, 4 of drumsticks and 6 of thighs. Could have gotten more in. I forget to mention that I rotated racks half-way thru cooking.

About cranking it at the very end, It takes so long to get up past 300 or so. Maybe 25 minutes. I've tried stoking the firepot to get up to heat faster, and it helps. You can over-stoke, especially with a big load of chicken, as you can get a grease fire REAL fast - ask me how I know!
