    Chicken in a Barrel Restaurant Fuel info

    The famous "Chicken in a Barrel" started in Hawaii and has been showcased on the Food Network. They just opened a franchise in my city (lucky me!) and the local newspaper interviewed the franchise owner and I thought someone out there might be interested in this...

    "We call them hook 'em and hang 'em. We hang them so they are 3 feet away from the heat and we use Kiawe wood & coal. When the juices from the meat hit the coals, it steams the meat in it's own juices."

    No real point to this other than the fuel they are using. I never heard of Kiawe before so I thought that was interesting. Good people there...they stayed open on Christmas day and provided free meals to anyone that needed a hot meal or place to go. I think I'll show some support and have lunch there tomorrow.

    Sound like good folks. I have understood Kiawe wood to be a cousin to mesquite. We use that a lot here in Texas.

      I was going to say the same thing. Went to a luau once and asked the question and got the same answer, it's a cousin to mesquite, burns hot and fast.

    Chicken cooked in a barrel - what a novel idea.
