I convinced my wife to pick up a 4 pound whole chicken at the grocery store. She's not crazy about "meat on a bone" but she's going to let me cook this for her. It's my ONE CHANCE. If she doesn't like it, no more whole birds for me!
So, I plan on 350-375 indirect on my Kamado Joe. Maybe throw on one chunk of peach wood. Salt and pepper it. Internal temp of 160 on the chicken breast, and pull it off the grill.
What else do you think I should do to ensure this sucker is good? It's my only chance! Should I use an olive oil or vegetable oil or butter to help get good crispy skin?
(Note: I've had the discussions with her of "where do you think a boneless chicken breast comes from"?). She loves chicken, but I guess a mental hurdle of the bone!
